Alasdair died?! I had no idea, I just looked him up randomly. I had the privelege of playing alongside him as a snare drummer at Carnegie Mellon from 2005-2006. Rest in Peace.

An incredible man with an incredible legacy. I doubt there will be a light music player of his calibre for some time.

Lucky to have met and heard him. He was an inspiration to so many and especially many young pipers everywhere.

Yet another person I never wanted to make an early appearance on my list of deceased people I'd love to meet.
RIP Alasdair, your passion for the music and legendary nature will be missed.
