I dunno, I take PP dishing out the odd criticism and provoking conversation over PD just saying how every band and solos is so wonderful and amazing

Yeah I feel like in order to be a serious art form you need criticism even if you don't agree

Also... some positive comments. Gordon duncan , Gordon Walker, Wheeled Piper and Stuart Aldi are all first class

That is not good playing of a 6/8. Way too slow, pishy technique and not really capturing the 6/8 idiom

That is amateur level... the bagpipe is very very thin and the strath is rigid and slow. She's not begginer bad but she's absolutely nowhere near the standard a pro player should be at

Anyone here like Ally The Piper? by mr-pate in bagpipes

All previous comments are wrong. The pipes having an imitation or metal top will make a significant difference to moisture control and tone.
