only prob is it dosent sound like like amazing grace most of the time but i still have plenty of songs that i cant play to music
i dont know if im any good ive been learning for a 7 months know and i can play murris wedding, dark isle, learning murdos wedding i also know acdc long way to the top, and some of my my own mixes
Hey guys, thanks for all the comments! I'm the piper in the video (although I did not name the video clip). This was sort of an experimentation for us, so I thought it went well. I normally play keys in the band.
And for all the pipers out there, I apologize about the sound. It's a combination of poor recording quality, loud fans, and trying to tune a pipe chanter to a guitar. :)
good job on the bagpiping, and just try to keep your left elbow down and keep it from swaying, but it was nice and i did enjoy the spin on Amazing grace
Well, if that is your way of getting your buzz, fair enough pal, but thank heavens there is a few thousand miles between us! (And a lot of Scots would undoubtedly agree with me!)
scot here, i disagree. this american learned the pipes and showed pride in his heritage infont of all his friends, although i dont completely agree with the bagpipes being used in rock music, e.g. korn when they are used for marching into battle quite often. but this is alright
And why do the audience seem unable to shut up during performances - it seems to be a feature of a certain part of the world. Give them a lone piper and watch them talk all over him!
Because YOU may not have any regard for tradition, you may not have a tradition, but have some respect for other people's tradition. Just because you can make a whore's drawers out of some special music doesn't mean you should do. To some of us this music is special and it's nice to keep it that way. If you can't - my advice, pal - leave it alone!
i have respect for tradition, but changing something up a little and calling it sacraligeous is a little extreme.
i played this song traditionally at my grandmothers funeral, and i have also played a "rock" version of it at church several times, theres a time and a place for the tradtion, and this wasnt one of them. and this song is VERY special to me actually. and i think comparing this to a "whores drawers" is narrow minded and blowing this way out of porportion.
HEY YOU LOT BEFORE YOU RATE THE GUY WHO SAID IT WAS AWFUL POORLY YOU TRY PLAYING THE PIPES WELL! Then you may see that there is quite a bit to beong a good piper that this lad has not got....yet he may do better in the future. Most of the pipers who play with a rock band or percussion ensemble are truly terrible. Except (Hunting Mcleod, Clanadonia, Dropkick M. once in a while, and maybe Albannach) Solo competition and playing that is were you seperate the Pipers from the wannabes.

Moreover 'Lord of the bagpipes' is a bit more than you're entitled to call yourself, don't you think - a little modesty wouldn't go amiss.
