We should do it.

I propose the location be....Mount Rushmore. Of course.

Great idea, as far as I am concerned. Include Canada, too, please.

Being on the other side of the pond, but enjoying hearing of the various doings of the more regional Tionols in the USA ( and all you have to offer), and hearing these days of some of the output thanks to the computer revolution. YEH! Get together.

Plan it some time ahead, to give it a chance - and plan for a MAJOR Tional, the WORLD Tionol after that, so we can all join in, meet, break down barriers - learn from each other.

What a blast.

Pwt

I would recommend Chicago in honour of Chief O'Neill. Or Philadelphia in honour of the Taylors. Or New York, in honour of Coyne. Or Roxbury, Mass in honour of Ned White.

I recommend New Orleans. Nice and humid all the time, a very musical city, and plenty of good food and grog. Not much else going for it though.

I dare you to come up with a more appropriate place name.

No no no no no no... it ought to be a place that'll put pipers and their pipes to the test like, say, Pike's Peak.

Sorry, I can't take the hot, humid weather. My vote would be for Dukphart, Idaho.

I guess that's the place to be for you "bent" pipers.
