Better yet, a single malt and $200!

I'm OK with the malt, or 2, but that's a pretty rich tune at $200! Just wanted to add some class to an otherwise staid ceremony.

How much of your work do you do for free? Pipers, like musicans everywhere, are talented artists. They expect compensation for their services. Anything else is insulting.

Why not just slip a cd into the portable unit? Much cheaper.
Maybe you can even find a free download online.

Not trying to put to fine a point on this....
If you were hiring me to perform as described with a venue here in Memphis, you could expect a two bill invoice from me. And I do similar gigs in similar circumstances throughout the year.
I'd be happy to pipe a few more tunes if asked though - and without additional charges.
