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.

Thats John S Wayland. He never married so who knows who the kids are. Probably members of the cork pipers club that John helped to establish in 1898.

Also, is that the Bb Willie Rowsome set that Brad Angus restored a year or so ago? Waylands personal set was a Harrington set.

Yes, there's one on Ebay right now, as well as one from apparently the same photo shoot, of the girls without the piper.

DJM,

You should be ashamed of yourself, to make such a publicly inappropriate comment. How about a little respect for musicians of the past.
