    Piping Lessons in the Houston, TX area

    I'm about to start on my piping lessons adventure! I've been playing the PC for 6 or 7 months now. Here in Houston TX. I found a Pipe band that is offering a "Beginners Class" from scratch! This starts next week Jan.06 and lasts for 40 weeks. The 40 weeks is made up of 5 courses and each course is 8 weeks long. First 3 are with the PC, last 2 are on the GHBP's. Each course is $100. for a total of $500. for the year program. I'm excited!! I'm 45 years old and this looks like a good shot at the pipes! If you live in the Houston, TX area and are interested send me a PM and I'll forward the info.

    Good for you, Kevo! I'm a solo piper because of too much busniess travel, but I know several of the pipers in town. Which band?

    Steve, BTW thanks for the Pm about the "welcome home" event, I'll look into it. The band is "The Bayou City Pipes and Drums". I think there are 4 to 5 new guys starting next week. I'll be one of them!! Looking forward to it!!
