- Tell us something.: Pipes have become my main instrument, but I still play the flute. I have emerged from the "instrument acquisition" phase, and am now down to one full set of pipes (Gordon Galloway), and one flute (Hudson Siccama).

It was supposed to be here in June which turned into September at the latest which has now turned into January '08, supposedly. It's going to be a new-design model with 6 keys including a right-hand Bb touch instead of a left-hand one. This one Hugh's got looks amazing too though....

Cheaper than the high-priced spread.
Played by Tom McElvogue and Calum Stuart. (Google for their creds)

The struggle in Palestine is an American war, waged from Israel, America's most heavily armed foreign base and client state. We don't think of the war in such terms. Its assigned role has been clear: the destruction of Arab culture and nationalism.
