Music




There are some benighted souls who do not think the bagpipe produces music. I am not one of them. I love a pipe band, and the St. Patrick's Day parade in NYC had plenty today.

  1. It was a great day for the parade. Did you take this with your iPhone? I love how bright the orange is.

  2. Yes, this was my iPhone. I love this particular band. they always march after the sun has come around, and the gold kilts and capes just catch the light.

  4. Me, too! Me, too! I love the pipes and drums. Unfortunately, my pleasure was short-lived as the group only performed a few minutes. Must find recorded music! Maybe I can see the NYC parade one of these days.

  5. I like bagpipes. My grandfather couldn't stand them for some reason, saying it sounded like a cat fight. We attended a wedding in Wales a couple years ago in an old castle, and one of the best memories of it was a piper up on the roof at dusk, playing sweetly as the guests wandered inside.

  8. I though iris color was mostly green but these really stand out. Must have been a great sound with all those bagpipes. Never heard more than one or two at a time
