    Ha! Goes to show you can't please everybody, so why not do what feels right to you?

    Your experience reminds me of the time I finished a piping job and ended up walking around a big swap meet sort of thing, in my kilts, pipes in hand.

    Over and over people asked me to play something. I deferred, saying I wasn't hired to play and didn't want to bother anybody.

    After an hour of being constantly asked to play something, finally when somebody practically begged me I fired up the pipes.

    Instantly a guy ran up screaming in my face to stop. Which I did, immediately, and went home.

    Well I suppose that should be the subject of a different thread Encouragement To Play The Pipes In Public!
