I am told they are a 'war pipe' designed to be played the frighten the
!&#@ out of your enemy, and I guess the further the better!!!!! (better
for both sides really!!!)
one of the organisations I belong to pipes 'The Boss' in at our regular
assemblies, & they are also at played at other ceremonial times of the
meetings. Quite stirring when played well, & shocking when played
badly.
OM content: I need to get out & photograph a pipe band march with my 2n!
