The great Bagpipe war

[Mike Poore]

There seems to be a love - hate relationship concerning Bagpipes, and although I've never heard anyone say they actually loved Bagpipe, er, ..music, most folks simply say they like the look of the, um, instrument. So, after all the pro - and -con comments about the disgusting things, I thought it was time for an un-biased poll.

Thanks for your participation. \

Please note: If there's more tone deaf participants who truthfully say they LOVE Bagpipe music, than discerning music lovers who say they don't care for the ,uh sounds the ,um instrument produces then Haggas gets to torture us with Bagpipe , er, music at the Big Bats CAM doo in December.

I voted yes because there are worse sounds in the world:

1) rod knock
2) distressed rabbit
3) missed shift
4) telemarketer
5) crying baby
6) something exploding in the microwave
7) The Peter Criss solo album
8) The theme from "Friends"
9) dead battery click-click-click-click
10) ricer exhaust

You're kidding, right?

[Dr Caleb]

I watched the broadcast of the 60th anniverary of the Invasion of Normandy, from Juno Beach back in June. It was a fantastic performance. The part I'll always remember was a story of the first night, when Airborne troops were deep within enemy territory.

A piper started playing Amazing Grace. The narrator was explaining how The Allies had taken the beach that first day, and the piper played for the Airborne so they would know the beach had been taken, and that they were not alone. And 99 other pipers joined the first.

That always gives me the shivers (in a good way). That and 'Scotland the Brave'.

[MM03MOK]

You're kidding, right?Well, you know I'm serious!

Hmm, interesting! Bagpipes are winning!! :D

[FiveO]

I once told 3 kids their father was murdered....and he was a co-worker of mine.

At the funeral they played Amazing Grace on a bagpipe. Every time I hear it on a bagpipe....I start crying.

My mother hired a bagpiper for my wedding....go figure...I lost it when he started playing.


I love the bagpipes.

[Haggis]

I remember when I was stationed in Berlin back in the '80s, we would train with the KOSB (Kings Own Scot Borderers). You would not see or hear anything, then out in the distance you would hear the bagpipes and the next thing you knew they were on top of us, in our lines and behind us. One of my NCOs told me not to be captured just tell them you were dead.

Well being the wise a$$ I was I had to be captured. They first searched me for any documents I might have been carrying and then they marched me out to the holding area. I had my BDU pants down around my ankles so I couldn't run and my BDU jacket pulled off of my shoulders with my arms tied up in them. Here I was hobbling around in my underwear with my pants around my ankles and my shirt around my waist going no where fast. Oh yea my Sergent was laughing his a$$ off when he saw me. :rofl:

Amazing Grace is one of the most beautiful songs when played on a bagpipe. Man, Mike are you in trouble on the 4th. No excuses not showing up! :bagpiper:

Never heard anything like that....intresting. Not going to change my vote, but beats the oprea.
:lol:

[Bluerauder]

Personally, I like the bagpipes and there is a long military history of their use.

Even the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) in Lexington, VA formed a Pipes and Drums Company for their regimental band in 1997 while my son was a cadet there. They play at every parade and have been invited to many festivities ... here's an excert from their homepage and some pics. :D

"The Pipes and Drums continued in 1998 to expand performance opportunities with participation in the Attorney General’s Inaugural Ball, the Hermes and Endymion Parades at Mardi Gras, and a performance in the Army Reserve’s 90th Anniversary celebration playing in the Pentagon Courtyard, and at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Pipes and Drums have already taken part in the Ligonier Highland Games, South Mountain Games in Atlanta, and Williamsburg Scottish Festival this year, and the Pipes and Drums will continue to seek new opportunities and forums in which to best represent the Institute.

Uniform: The tartan worn by the Pipes and Drums is the New Market Battlefield Tartan. Named for the battle in which the Corps of Cadets distinguished themselves, the primary colors of the tartan are the school colors of red, yellow, and white, along with blue-gray of cadet uniform. Designed by Cadet Donny Hasseltine and Donald Frasier of Scotland, the tartan also has four minor stripes of Light Blue, Green, Dark Blue, and Black, which represent the four ROTC programs at VMI, that of Air Force, Army, Navy, and Marines. The topcoat worn by the Pipe and Drums is the cadet Coatee, which is the standard formal parade uniform for Corps of Cadets ."

No it doesn't, Patrick. In the opera they're killing cats; but THAT was torturing cats 'bout a thousand of 'em, near as I can tell. When the MP3 started to play, Hobbes, our Seal Point headed for parts unknown .....fast

Also, judging from the way the vote's going, I'm starting to feel like John Kerry after the Fla vote came in.

I smell a rat, and demand a recount! Haggas bussed in a bunch of felons from Philadelphia.;)

Where's all my new best friends?:depress:

That may well be true. Flora, my West Highland White Terrier, started barking like crazy, a tune she usually reserves for cats. Either that or bagpipes are in her blood too. :cool:

Sure, says Satan, ask anything, and it's yours. Well, the guy says, I've always wanted to play an instrument. The devil hands him a Bagpipe and says ....here ... play this. :rofl:

To quote them: "There are only 3 things that are 'Scotch'. Hopscotch, Scotch Whiskey and Scotch tape. Everything else is Scottish, or it's crap."

These are bagpipes. I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made sound never equalled the purity the sound achieved by the pig. - Alfred Hitchcock

[dwasson]

Perfect pitch in a bagpipe is when you throw it and hit a accordian.

[dwasson]

Why do bagpipers march? To get away from the sound.

[dwasson]

Why are harmonicas better than bagpipes? Harmonicas only suck every other note.
