Paddy Keenan on an off-night is better than any piper living. Paddy when he's on and the pipes are sweet, no one better, living or dead. Passion, conviction, and a touch of the bizarre, like all great pipers.
Have you actually seen John play in person? ....I thought not....you surely don't know what the hell you are talking about. Paddy doesn't let anyone play with him who is not up to scratch....
OMG I KNOW HIM HE HAS BEEN IN MY HOUSE LIKE 10 TIMES HIS DAUGHTER IS MY BEST FRIEND LIKE B-F-F-F! WE R LIKE TIGHT DAWG! but really no joke. not that u guys care but w/e i just needed to let that out
His first pipes were Rowsomes I'm pretty sure. I think his new drones and regs were made by the late Dave Williams, and the chanter by the American maker David Quinn.
still the king.......

@pearse93 I asked him the other night, and I'm pretty sure he said Dave Williams -- it was loud in there. They're a copy of "his old set," he said.
