    cool studio gig: Battleship

    The other day Aaron Shaw, the piper of Wicked Tinkers (and a piping judge) got a call from 20th Century Fox to round up five pipers for a new movie called Battleship.

    It was a studio gig, that is, we'll be heard but not seen!

    The music was challenging. One "cue" was a fairly fast thing which had Fnaturals and Cnaturals throughout; one cue had a big fat High G# which we had to nail in tune.

    It went slowly by studio standards, because we had to spend time tuning notes not normally played on the pipes.

    Here we are L-R Kevin Weed, Yours Truly, Aaron Shaw (of Wicked Tinkers), Eric Boyd (of the Celtic rock band 1916), and John Allan (of the Celtic rock band Stand Easy).
