About The Hick Mick's Practice Space

Hiya! The Hick Mick here from Birmingham, Alabama. This is just a inconsequential account created to share videos of my piping with my mates, mostly for educational purposes. Most of the videos here will be either piping blogs of a sort, recording my progress on this or that tune or selection of tunes, or sharing some music with students. If you have happened upon this page in error, I fear you will find little here of interest, but you are welcome all the same.

Cheers!
