    You know, I'm a pretty conservative, stuck in the mud traditionalist...


    ... but I really, REALLY liked it!

    I really enjoyed his performances with the PowerPipes. I have a crush on Saskia Konz!

    A turn off!

    I actually find this offensive. Yeah, I suppose this guy wants to make bagpipes cool, hip and hot by shoe-horning them into heavy metal music, but as a piper and a traditionalist I find it rediculous, stupid and sad. The tatoos, mohawks and metal studs are supposed to badass but I think they're an affront to the dignity of the highland pipes. This kind of cheapens them and the world of piping actually. He is well named: the "bad" piper!
