Never thought I'd see Robbie on YouTube.
Worse still, never thought I'd see him with a guitar player!

Aye, but different pipes it seems, or at least bass drones. Could this be a Traveller piper prehaps? The pipe case against the van in the first clip?

He's not a traveller but he did learn a lot of his playing from John Rooney and Michael Doran. I forget his surname but his first name is Anthony. he lives in Dublin but from Manchester originally. Fine piper but hard to get to play because he's a very shy character.

Well whoever he is, fair play to him for appearing in those clips....I imagine thats the way some of the old pipers did it, a long time back, at fairs or marts or whatever.

Its kinda like a wee glimpse into the past.

Yeah, I enjoyed that. Nice sounding pipes, too. Looks like the puck on the bass drone has gone walkabout though...
