  • hi mate well done on this tune can't find any other vids of this tune being played can you tell me where i might be able to get the music sheet for this??? thanks bud

  • hey take a teacher or try very hard to play one tune clear!

  • hey kid

    to the ground.........

  • Chuck that thing back in the sea it's

  • hey or whatevr we Scots say i'm so outta touch with my heritage idk listen i think its GREAT what you're doin on youtube man. i'm a piper myself and 4rm one 2 another KEEP IT UP!!!

  • your fingering is all wrong ,you need to join a local band and start from scratch,learn to tune them drones,and learn the scale correctly, and embelishments (grace notes) correctly, it seems almost like you've tried to teach yourself with no direction at all, big mistake get a book and try again

  • Your doublings need some work.

  • I love the sound of Bagpipes but that sounded a bit crap. Keep practicing ;)

  • what song is he playing

  • u obviously have a few issues, plus dont post crap utterly crap pipin on here, that was a total mess so so so bad

  • im sorry to say but that wasnt that good . i mean i can play way betta than that an im only 13

  • My friend, age has nothing to do with skill i myself only turned 14 a few days ago and i got my cadet level 4 on pipes and I have only been playing 10 months

  • this is horrible. i cant believe some ppl actually think this is good piping

  • agreed but effort warms my scottish blood

  • you're better than me :)

    bought myself some bagpipes last year,

    still havent been able to find myself a teacher.

    anyway good job.

  • wow i thought that was pretty good tbh

  • hmmm....just need practice

  • aye big talk comin from a man in a country on the arse of th planet where englands prisoners were sent

  • first of all im a girls...... and second of all wot does that have to do with the pipes for god sakes!!!!

  • I'm sorry i was in a bad mood that day i guess NE way i was jk

  • um... no check out the baton rouge caledonian society of pipes and drums. you should listen to sethsangel2.

  • m8 play the song properly on chanter b4 playin it on pipes.i learn the chanter for 2years b4 i even played the pipes. i know that was a year ago so i hope ya better now .you need to learn how 2 read music too ,just read the lines g,b,d,f if its not on the line its between

  • not bad man, not bad at all

  • not bad could use a different reed tho doesn't sound plesant with it squeeking like that

  • I fear eitherh is pipes are shit, or his reed is fucked. Either way, it doesn't make for very nice listening.

  • OMG! Well i never heard anything like that... Nice though... I guess:)

  • that was the worst just like your other video idiots that stink i play and could do better hes so bad it aint even funny he plays so many wrong notes play somthin else cause u stink as a piper. but i have to give it to u u can play drones well i think hes playin 1 or2 but he still sucks

  • your aussie that already deserves 5 stars

  • no....not atall, the pipes are an amazing instrument. just when they get into the wrong hands....like you whitnessed up there, people loose respect for the pipes and think they always sound like that. ans that is not the case.

  • forget the baboon or the jello never heard of a brand of cell phones called cello. Highland bagpipes rock !

  • i don't know about this guy, it is impossible to learn by yourself, well at least the bagpipes

  • omg he is a hippie !!!!

  • not bad. great tune

  • good good oatmeal

  • heard a few sour notes but all togeather very nice rock on my fine accented friend ROCK ON!!! lol A++

  • Feck the famous shite and concentrate on the zone.

  • Hey I'm Scottish n I don't think it's that bad but one thing you need for the pipes is loadsa practice. But keep it up nd you could be really good some day

  • man, sounds good to me for being taught by ear, thats not easy, keep it up and i hope you get big and famous bro

  • Man, if your gonna put stuff on here please get it right. I'm scottish and im insulted. I mean your proberly a nice guy but come on at least get better before you post.

  • i agree, it's nothin bad about tryin, but tbh it doesn't really sound good at all, nd i love the pipes

  • Do you even play the pipes o' great Scottish one?

  • You being scottish has nothing to do with you being insulted by this. Just because you are a nationality doesnt mean you are automatically better at doing something.

  • Painfull to listen to =(

  • scottish people rule :P

  • It was pretty bad. I play the pipes and honestly...dont post videos of yourself playing the pipes like that...EVER! Your ruining the instrument. Women are weaping Children are Dying and People are eating dogs. So for the love of god STOP posting bad pipe music

  • that is so awsome

  • i love the song man jimmy in kansas.

  • u are awsome be my friend my tag is redkid911

  • wow!!

  • mmm terrible

  • a complete artist!

    singer, guitarist and bagpiper :-D

  • Mandoliner, piano player, harmonica player, drummer...

    Hahaha thanks man :)

  • kickass man thanks for putting this up i fuckin love the pipes

    play on man, play on

  • nice job mate is there any name for this song other than the outlawed tunes

  • hmmm, I should try and work that out on bagpipe music writer,

    kinda good (yeah right) with no embellishments.

  • Your breathing needs lots of work. Try 'softer' reeds if it's too hard.

  • Is this guy bringing out a cd????:P:D

  • Where can I get the sheet music for that?

  • except the song was played on the irish pips the uillean pips which sound way better then the highland pips

  • are you ever going to do any more of these videos? You keep saying how much better you are nowadays

  • you really need to learn how to breath steadily, plus its very hard just to pick up the bagpipes because of the fast fingering, you really need to go back to learning the scales, stop trying to do the fancy stuff and concentrate on your technique.

  • fancy?????

  • what out for your false fingering. keep at it

  • i am a piper and you can better stop a beginner plays better then you

  • clown!!!

  • That was mint

  • hey man i have a chanter and all and i was going to play bagpipes but i kinda stopped but now im getting started up again and since you said you never had any lessons can you give me some pointers and i would love to have the sheet music for outlawed tunes too i love that song and i love braveheart!

  • rubbish

  • I think you might be better on the crack pipes,just a

    thought.

  • keep practicing brother, and specially work on the timing

  • Um...... try tuning again the tenors and the high A are very out also the geal from last of the moheakans sounds better on highland pipes and if you want to get "really big and famous" talk to Aaron from the WICKED TINKERS he's amazing!!

  • Well, where as your tuning and tone wasn't the greatest, you managed to last longer than I did my first few tries at the bagpipes!!!

    Do you have any recent videos of you playing? I'd like to see/hear how you're progressing.

  • um no i dont, but i may be able to make some

  • where di you get the sheet music for outlawed tunes on outlawed pipes

  • um, i figured it out myslf, i have an ear for music.

  • well done mate i thought that was your best vid yet!!! :):):) im proud of you but try and get the timing right and add in some notes

  • that tune is meant for ullien pipes, and your pipes are way to nice for a sucky player like you to have.

  • hahahaha yep :D

  • Once again, take a look at the music, also I noticed the irregularity in your squeezing, and blowing when playing.. Squeeze squeeze, then start blowing when u can't squeeze no more, then squeeze 2 secs before u stop squeeezing that will gid of the sounds you get when blowing.. Helps to maintain steady pressure

  • Although the playing wasn't that great I gave it a good rating because your the only one I've seen on You Tube play that song. I haven't been able to find it anywhere else. I bought a pair of bag pipes over the summer but fucked up all the reeds because I was an idiot and tried to put them together myself without looking online for instructions. When you get the song down good then let me know cause I love that song.

  • i have aced that song now man, im so much better on the pipes.. still not tghe best because i have never had a lesson in my life though....

    ahh man thats bad to hear about ye pipes:(

  • Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some 1920's trading cards of musical instruments, including the bagpipes.

  • You do well for undiciplined play, college of piping tutor 1 would help you greatly and my instructor i see biweekly helps me so much just by pointing out mistakes before i learn them permenetly. this is what im afraid will happen to you. You will learn the wrong way and make it twice as hard to unlearn the mistakes you have mastered, good luck. p.s. listen to some of the responses you have gotten from the pipers here they dont mean you harm they are trying to help

  • it's good to know that something good happened on 22th october 2006, not just bad ...(my love started to date another girl) anyway ..uhm...I just wanna say it's great how you play...keep up practicing and you'll be a star:)

  • brilliant mate am gettin better wiv that chanter, anyway wher u from austraila, new zealand where????

  • waqtch out for false fingering on the c and d notes

  • Good effort dude! I'm from Glasgow, Scotland so Braveheart is one of my favorite films, and the tune played, fantastic!

  • good vid ... great song ... bagpipes rule

  • Hey, those are some beautiful pipes and i would say you are well on your way to becoming a piper. the one thing i would suggest is that you join a band, when I did i progressed dramatically in a short period of time. Keep at it, always keep leaning new tunes and remember that accuracy comes before speed.

  • pretty good considering its technically impossible to play the original song on the highland bagpipes, in the film it was in fact played on smallpipes which have a larger or more chromatic musical range.

  • Thank you. Thank you for the insight.

  • uilleann pipes

  • Yeah i agree with the first one, nice :D

  • nice. i absolutely love the bagpipes, and the song you played.youre pretty good, too, just need a bigger set of lungs haha. anyway, nice job, i liked the video

  • If you're self taught did you learn via the pipe/practise chanter first, if not try getting one - much quieter for practising and easier - mine is currently next to the computer and when i get a second i blast up and down the scales a few times to try and help eliminating my crossover noises and also to practise my gracenotes

  • but as said before try and find either a pipe band or at the very least another piper - basically if you want to be an exceptional piper then find another piper to practise with and to learn stuff off. Those that self teach ALWAYS pick up bad habits that can easialy be corrected if another piper is there to spot them.

  • The Gathering of the Clawns!!

  • If it makes you feel any better, I can't play the bagpipe at all. I was just pissed off at my neighbor, and wanted to know hard they look to play so I could consider buying one to piss my neighbor off.

  • I'd say keep at it. Ignore those that are rude as hell. The more practice the better you will get. I want to learn the pipes on of these days. Hopefully if I ever get around to it I won't piss off the neighbors too much :P

  • Please do the world a favor and get an instructor..and tune those tenors!

  • omg... well, I suppose I should say something positive so I'll say that you play better than me (I've never played the bagpipes in my life)... you'll do better in 10 years or so with a LOT of practise

  • This is as bad as it gets.  Try the guitar... bagpipes aren't your thing.

  • Hey FUCK you cunt, you anti fuckin beginner liking PRICK!!!! Go and stuff lit cigarette butts into your fucking eyes in shame!!

  • You're terrible, face it.  Not everyone can play this instrument. It's a shame you felt the need to share this with the public.

  • they aren't babies. loser.

  • I am a seasoned and expert player & my advice to you can probably be of some assistance, but a 500 word limit in these "youtube" comments windows is far too small to be able to sum it up over many (i'm sure)postings and be still convenient for me :) however should you want some genuine advice via email, i would be happy to be of service.

  • How auld are you? someone said 16 - well, it doesn't matter i guess, by the time you're 25 you should be

  • i should be what?

  • Just watched this with my family. Found it very interesting. You really stuck to the original. Good job, man.

    FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

  • Hey you should make a "how to play the highland bagpipes" for people like me that live in the middle nowhere that want to play. just saying.

  • False fingering on the first "C" A for effort

  • Awesome job man.. 5*! ;)

  • I would like play bagpipe, but i haven't money :'(

  • dude... what did you start playin yesterday???

  • Comment removed

  • Hi All! What's the title of this melody?

  • haggis!! och aye..that is some freaky instrument, how did a 16 yr old start playing bagpipes? kinda cool tho'

    you fully look like bon scott

  • hey not bad, I wish I was able to play the bagpipes I just need to find a place where they sell bagpipes.

  • nice man, u did it well. 5*

  • wow well :D nice 1 m8 always loved braveheart 5*

  • Cool fuckin awesome powerful sound Is It hard to play on It?

  • General melody isn't that hard, it's mostly breath and arm control that's tough. Keeping a constant flow of air through the pipes to stay in tune takes a while to get used to, and even longer to master.

    Yeah, I commented. Now become famous. Go on, I haven't got all day.

  • dont av to be sarcastic. noob.
