Blu, it's not an easy road, learning the pipes, at my age I struggle anyway.
When you're young the fingers are more nimble. I've not held a set of pipes yet, I'm still on the chanter which is the most horrible instrument you can imagine.
It is well named the "misery stick".
My ulimate goal is to learn the Scottish small pipes, they have a beautiful sound and can be played indoors. They are not dissimilar to the Uilleann pipes, which are surely the most romantic sound in the world.
Now they bring a tear to my eyes very easily.
