Bagpipes

then you must be galician or austorian!

Im not sure my family is from Navarra, which was part of the celtiberian tribes

As one of the very few Uilleann and Ceilidh pipe players around here, I'll just say that it's a "yes".

One of the few, but certainly not the only. I play those among many, many others, including, Northumbrian Smallpipes, Border Pipes, Scottish Smallpipes, Scottish Shuttlepipes, Veuze, Biniou Kozh, Flemish Pipes, various central French pipes including musette Bechonnet, Medieval pipes, Gaita (both Asturian and Galician), Leicestershire Smallpipes, English Greatpipes, Cornish Pipes, assorted parlour and ceilidh pipes, and naturally, uilleann pipes and GHB. (All of which I own). There are others too, but this is the list I could think of just off the top of my head. Love them drones!

to keep this thread on track, nah, playing and appreciating pipes isn't a prerequisite for wearing a kilt, but it sure doesn't hurt!

I also play uilleann pipes, great highland pipes, smallpipes, and probably a few others that I don't own.

But to quote a famous bagpipe joke:
"You know, the bagpipes are my favorite instrument. Too bad they sound so bloody awful!"

Thanks guys and thanks to the internet, I've been able to listen to a few samples and have already decided to purchase Wolfstone...I also found a forum un here on Celtic music that listed a host of others, so needless to say, I will be quite entertained.

Again, thanks.
