Uilleann Pipes
1

I’m feeling creative today… :boggle:
anyone ever mix peices of small pipes, GHB, or Uilleanns togeather,
i know they mite be the wrong fit so it would be impossivble, but what would happen if you mixed a uilleann reed with a GHB… or visa virsa :confused: :open_mouth:

dont hate me for this :tomato:

one last thing… dose this smily look like Hitler, or is it just me? :admin: :admin: :admin: :admin: :admin:

I have often wanted Regs on my GHBs but I don’t think that will happen but that would be so cool if it did. Yes that smilie looks like Hitler I have thought that ever since the first time I have seen it.

I guess one could make the argument that it is Oliver Hardy, but I (for one) wouldn’t buy it.

Personally, I find it an offensive emoticon, and I am curious why it is still available. :roll:

Its really Charlie Chaplin…

the hair is parted on the wrong side. tis more like veronica lake with a mustach.

Tried it. Horrible duck-like squawk. Fun for a second or two, though.
Maybe “D” Smallpipe drones work with a u.p. chanter.
P.S. It’s funny that the code for the ?Hitler? emoticon is " : admin :"*
*(Spaces included for clarity.)

I’ve always thought a set of border pipes with a modified uilleann-esque mainstock and a regulator or two might sound interesting.

Perhaps someone should pass that idea on to Fred…I could see him going mad with something like that.

:confused: Men part their hair on the left, women on the right. This is an old convension that is not much followed any more.

My neighbour in England was a NSP maker, and he gave me a D chanter with a stock to fix it to my uilleann bag.

The uilleann drones and NSP chanter made quite a nice mix.

You callin’ me a girl? :moreevil:

My hair and I parted ways years ago… :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Adrian Schofield up in Manchester plays an NSP chanter (in G I think) with a Uilleann base drone over the shoulder. Pictured top left corner from last November’s get-together here:

It’s apparently intended as a “forumnazi” (like seinfeld’s “soupnazi”) joke.
