Bagpipes! (And Scotland)

[KitrallStreamrippler]

So, what is your opinion on bagpipes? I personally think they're awesome, and I want to learn how to play them.
Also, I think Scotland is a beautiful place.

[Tam and Martin]

They are interesting. I like the sound but our Great Grand-father played it and our Mom remembered him emptying the spit from the ball.

Ah'm currently learnin' tae play ze practice chanter, vitch iz ze practice instrument for ze Bagpipez.

[KitrallStreamrippler]

That's really cool! Unfortunately, though I really want to learn how to play them, I don't think I have enough patience or commitment.

[Tam and Martin]

You need patience if you are to play an instrument. I didn't have patience when I started playing Violin but I started developing a lot more and it's easier

I like bagpipes, they're really neat.
And Scotland, too. Scotland's awesome. I'm a huge fan of Scottish accents.   My dream is to live in one of the countries of the UK, and Scotland is my second choice (second only to England).

[KitrallStreamrippler]

Yes! I love Scottish music, too. Back on the subject of bagpipes, my friend told me a quote (from a Spyro game, I think?) that goes: "Music can soothe a savage beast- but bagpipes can break solid rock."

i love bagpipes (as long as they are not to loud )and i think scotland is beutiful,they are thinking of reintroducing wolves there so that is great!

[Gingivere Greeneyes]

I feel so loved being a Scottish person. 

I don't think they're actually re-introducing wolves though, we simply don't have the space. If any large carnivores are released, the lynx is the most obvious choice.

(Is it bad even though I'm Scottish bag-pipes rather annoy me occasionally?  )

[CrazyPug37]

I love the sound of Bagpipes; it would be neat to learn from like a Scottish master or something.

They will never top the holy Alto Saxophone, though. 

[Rusvul]

I vote for the "Pretty darn awesome" and the "Really weird" options. They pretty much sum up how I feel about bagpipes.

i guess its ok for you not to like bagpipes if your scottish,you may have sensitive ears.

[HeadInAnotherGalaxy]

Me Bagpipez lezzonz are goin' along great! Ah 'ave learned "Zcotz Va Hae" an' "Brovn 'aired Maiden" zae far.

[Gingivere Greeneyes]

Scottish people have a right to dislike, all you others better get liking! XD

[Tarquin L. Woodsorrel]

As a Scot born and bred in I can honestly say if you sit in the very front seat of a pipe band hall listening to the full compliment it not only deafens you permanently (well, almost) but also destroys any love you may ever have had of the instrument. Just a warning. Take earmuffs if going within 20m of a pipe band in a confined space. No joke.

PLEASE NOTE: Pipes are awesome when the volume is adjustable, in a parade or otherwise. I like them and well recommend them if, and only if they are outside (as long as there are no mothers trying to get babies to sleep.)
