Especially Irish pipes.

Dont get me wrong I like the bagpipes, but the softer sound of the uileann pipes is much more listenable.

And theres no real difference between Irish and Scottish bagpipes, the uileann is a different instrument.

Btw heard rogues of scotland?

Scottish bagpipes have a drone, a bass line if you will.

Nope. Expand plz. :)

hehehehe The Royal Family are more than half German.

I, fortunately, came from France about 8 generations ago, and curiously enough, there is actually a Glacier with my family name in Antartica, which was discovered by an American ship, so we got over there at some point too ;)

I'm actually related to the royal family :nervous:  Mothers side used to own hillsborough castle in down long long time ago.

Aye they do, and the same drone would be found on the Irish equivelents of the Highland pipes. I was really saying in comparison to some of the other pipes out there, like the Breton or German ones.

And its a good tune, kazaa it or something.

**** the middle east
There's too many problems
They just get in the way
We sure could live without them
They hijack our planes
They raise our oil prices
We'll kill them all and have a ball
And end their ****in' crisis
BEIRUT, LEBANON-Won't exist once we're done
LIBYA, IRAN-We'll flush the bastards down the can
SYRIANS and SHIITES-Crush their faces with our might
Then Israel and Egypt can live in peace without these dicks

Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.

Lamonts are related to the McGregors, that's why..... I'm either a McGregor or a Lamont, we've never been able to narrow it down.

NB: Scottish bagpipes are a weapon of war, of course they'll sound harsh.
