@TimetoGo8711 You are hallucinating. I never posted anything about a grade 2 band. I think your comment was intended to the person who posted @ me. Look carefully.

@ChrisZ70 hahaha you're a joke. anyone who needs to go onto field marshall's videos and post about their shitty grade 2 band to feel good about themselves is a joke. GTFO

o not to mention that n top of that My home was destroyed in hurrican katrina and then burned down after my family and I had rebuilt it. I dont let people or events tell me I am not capable of achieving; stating that a pipe band is lesser than another based upon its geographic location is simply stupid

I agree with fltopp1 i start piping and was discouraged by the grade II and I pipers saying i didnt have what it takes and that i was a novice, so i proved them wrong. After only being on the chanter for 8 months and then moving to the pipes, playing a cheap R.G. Hardie set I out played a chapionship grade II piper..after only a total of 2 years of contact with the instrument, o Also i was a 17 year old high shcool student working four jobs and compleatly funded it myself, nothing is impossible

@ChrisZ70 Ironically, the 7 time world champs happen to be in my neck of the woods and I guarentee my grade II band will beat most of your European grade II's this next year at the worlds. You can talk all you want, but people who make stupid arrogant statements such as yours are what gives piping a negative light to the newer pipers. Have a nice day.

@fltopp1 I guess there might be no jokes if you just view the joke as being too obvious to make. Is it not obvious to everyone that American piping generally sucks compared to Scottish, Irish, Canadian, Austalian, etc.? The only real jokers are the mildly retarded individuals like "Mr. Dress and Deportment" who couldn't carry a tune if it had a handle yet are worried about positioning of flashes on calves. There are many of these fools in the U.S. and they are a total embarrassment.

Jokes about American piping? Are you serious? You must be ill. Get well soon.

@electricslipper Your comments have made me so proud to be a member of the EUSPBA. Please continue your efforts so that we may have proper dress and deportment while the rest of the world jokes about American piping
