    Is there more to the site than the front page? I'm not seeing any links, aside from the email address.

    I've perused the internet a bit, and have finally found one sample of their work.

    http://www.hireaband.co.uk/inc/app/d...i%20Pipers.wma

    I very much enjoyed it, though it is less than 2 minutes. The drums seem a little more involved than the standard "Pipe and drum" band, which I really appreciate. I'm also a big sucker for harmonising, and they seem to do that a bit. Basically, I'm probably going to end up picking up the album.

    Thanks P1M

    (that's both a sincere and sarcastic thanks )

    Red Hot Chilli Pipers

    I saw this and immediately recognised Howie's 21st Century kilts and kilt pins. Their style, innovation, look were all absolutely wonderful. i did, think, however, that clever though it was, the music was a little "flat", so I doubt they will make it big time. But all in all, I loved them.

    Those gents are some of the finest solo competing pipers and drummers working today. You should get their CD and give it a long loving listen.
