I Think he's pretty good maybe to fast but it doesn't sound very wrong to my ears, and i don't think i can do it the way he does it therefor respect to the man

yeah but he sells his services playing like this very poor

Yea, way too fast. However, you see a lot of crap pipers standing around pretending to play tunes on badly tunes pipes all over Scotland's tourist areas. This guys good, just too fast.

Sorry I do not see any problem with playing a jig at 160 bpm. This is no way generaly too fast, for every musician can play (ok, if he can...) at whatever speed he likes. There are no rules that prescribe any tempo for reels, strathpeys or jigs, exept the rules of musicality or musical expression and if you can play at high speed without loosing control or the music itself... why not?

Poor because he's playing so fast?
Listen to any of Gordon Duncans stuff... And he is a legend!
