Y’all have Joseph E. Smith to thank/blame for this.
Enjoy!
Highland pipers are going to love that! Now they’ll carry the stigma of being “non-uilleann.” If Dale was scared of pipes before, now he should be petrified now. 
Excellent! Now to drag my bud with the dead goat over for a visit.
I think this is great!!! I play GHB, Scottish Small Pipes as well as learning to play the Union Pipes (Uilleann Pipes). The idea of a “non Uilleann” site is cool from the standpoint that it is another opporunity for pipers to get to know one another and share information. Way to go Dale/ Joseph!!!
Thanks, JES and Dale. Now we have to miss the entertainment value of hot tempers and locked threads. It’ll never be the same.
I think tempers will be as hot as ever, and when a thread is locked, well, it’s locked, whatever the forum.There will be plenty of those.
By the way, GHB ,SSP, NSP were all mentioned. How about kozy, duda, gudatsviri, parakapzuk, shabur, etc? Honestly, I didn’t make up any of the above, they all do exist.
Whatever variety of bagpipe is AOK with me… hence the name of this forum. Go on, knock yourselves out.
Just wait 'till someone starts talking about bagwhistles. Then there’ll be trouble!
I am looking forward to some wonderful dynamic tension…ah the pipes, whatever kind you please.
Ok, I’m kind of freaked out now…the sign that Dale photo-shopped to announce this forum is right down the street from my house…
Great. We’ll come by your house after the meeting.
Maybe, but at least people (not talking about our moderator) won’t be complaining about other pipes being discussed. That was getting very tiresome. Thanks, Dale and JES.
Oh, now I suppose if Uilleann pipes are mentioned in this forum the same thing will happen 
. Dang!
BUSTED!! No cookies for you and it’s early to bed!!!
Wow… so this really happened. Great!
I’ve been lurking on the UP forum for a few months - as I’ve started playing Scottish Smallpipes. So, it’s really nice to have a more general forum.
Thanks for that, guys.
Thanks here as well. Hope we get a good crowd, I don’t think there’s much yack action out there for these sorts of sticks. Try saying that three times fast…
Rejoined FIDDLE-L recently, they were embroiled in a real knuckle-dragger hatefest a couple of years ago. I still wish there was a good web forum like this for fiddlez. Can’t beat all these nifty pics, bizarre avatars, sound clips, what have ya.
Im in like Flynn, as long as we dont talk GHB. 
nuff o’ that elsewhere.
Uh oh.
Sounds like a reasonable request to me …
I’d say congratulations on the decision to finally allow the riff-raff in, but I’ve been a member here for quite a while now…
Good idea Joe and Dale. Thanks for making a great forum even better!
