Back when I was on the board in 04’ there was was little signs of uilleann pipers from michigan on here has that changed? Just curious because I could always use some help, pointers, lessons, and most of all I enjoy making people laugh 
Hey there, I live in Michigan. What town are you from?? I am in Northern MI
I’m down in the south east… in livingston county brighton/milford kinda. Yeah are you in the UP. Or just northern michigan? Are you from michigan originally if so are you Self taught or get lessons ?
Good to hear I am not the only one on the uilleann board from around the mitten.
There will soon be two more UPers in central Michigan. Both of us GHB guys, switching over from the dark side. My pipes are due to arrive in about 10 days.
Killain,
Piping lessons in conjunction with Comhaltas are held most Thursday evenings at the Gaelic League, downtown Detroit.
Also, there is usually a piper ot two present at one of the sessions found at:
There are other pipers in the Metro Detroit area that get together from time to time, but not on a regularly scheduled basis as yet.
Please PM me for more info.
Ahhhh I am like a kid in a candy store 
I’m quite happy that I have a response from michigan. I am pretty excited. Thanks for the replys and the info… Sounds good the numbers are rising…
I’m in the Muskegon area (West Michigan). Have been to one of the Al Purcell workshops (a few years ago). Been playing 8 years. Still struggling. I get distracted easily by my guitar, zouk, whistles and smallpipes/GHB. Shoot me an e-mail if you are ever in the area. Always like to play, and like to play accompaniment on my guitar/zouk.
Not really a Piper yet, I’m just getting started.
But I am in your neighborhood, west side, Farmington hills.
Look forward to some info sharing.
Cheers,
Patrick
I’m in Wyandotte. I just haven’t been concentrating too much on uilleann pipes lately.
I consider Michigan to be “in the zone” so do consider a pilgrimage to the GNIPC Tionol in May. We’d love to entertain our piping brethren and sistren from Michigan.
Shamelessly plugging away,

Killian,
Just wanted to second the Gaelic League event. I went last Thursday and a good time meeting everyone. There are a lot of great people there looking to have fun and help each other out. I believe they will be meeting again on the 27th.
