I took up piping in October 2010 at age 50. I can attest that anyone who tells you "it is dead easy" is LYING. I am an experienced musician who plays several other instruments and I am very familiar with military/pipe music. Even with that background, it is hugely challenging to learn (I liken it to trying to blow up two or more balloons whilst simultaneously wrestling with an octopus) but very satisfying! I strongly recommend that you find an instructor. If there aren't any in your area, have a look at www.bagpipelessons.com
