    Passing on the Bagpipe tradition

    This is a short story about the people who practice pipes for a band where they can.
    I am sure that there are alot of firehouse's and grange hall etc. in many states that have this "noise" once a week.
    George is a wonderful character and drives quite a ways even by Maine standards to help the band and the newbies....

    I like the line in the video where he says people really like the pipes or they don't. And those that don't, he figures they must have a brain injury or something.
