As I said at the start the photo was taken at the pipes measuring course run by NPU with instructors Cillian O'Brien and Geoff Wooff,but seriously does anyone know why they are wearing blindfolds. I really cant think of a reason why!

And lo! The scarves fell from their eyes, they took up the banjo and lived happily ever after.

Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

I'm afraid my neighbors would cheer the banjo's arrival and be the first to throw the pipes onto the fire. Yikes, I think I see the Henshaws out there in my yard with sticks now. :o
