Are these any good? I would like to toy around with bagpipes on the weekend for the price of a pizza. Worth it?

Any Scotsmen or international bagpipe experts around?

If it’s not Scottish, it’s cr@p.

Poll time - Instrument or form of torture?

Probably from having been brought to many Saint Patrick's Day parades as a kid, I've always been enraptured by pipe and drum bands, the bigger and louder the better.

Big similarity with the great US marching bands, which I also love.

All the magic is in the drones.

A German work colleague of mine told me about a busking piper back in his home country.  The local council created a new bylaw banning the practice.

I sometimes do IT work in the evening for a local church where the pipers practice ensemble. I love bagpipes but have to leave - it's deafening.

Loops. No playable instrument. Just loops. I’m waiting for Musio’s bagpipes… 

[Matt Rayner]

Hmm. I'll mull it over.

Which reminds me. For you non-Brits, I'd like to present Mark and Lard. They were 2 legendary daytime radio presenters on BBC Radio 1 in the 90's. They did this regular spot where Lardy would bring his rare records in and play them on the show. This is from their last ever broadcast and is, well, quite a rare recording.

They're already here: CineWinds Pro includes the Border Pipes, Renaissance Pipes and Uilleann Pipes instruments (though they aren't the main focus of the library). (They're also in the Kontakt version of the instrument too.)

Aah yes, the bagpipes of comedy.

I see what you did there. ?

What are you guys droning on about??? ?

Papa’s got a brand new bag.

Everytime I see bagpipes, I can't help but think of this.
