Here are some current reviews:
St Thomas Episcopal
Dedication CD
"I've purchased a number of pipe band CDs over the
years, but the sound from this band is absolutely
awesome. The person who arranged this music has
gotten an absolutely fantastic balance between pipes
and other instruments. There's only one thing
missing - Scotland the Brave. That would be
absolutely magnificent. Black Watch: Eat your heart
out!"
Airstream Blowpipe
I just purchased one of these. While sad to take the
pretty cocobola off my maclellan's, this blowpipe does
not leak, has a great mouthpiece and is very
comfortable to play.

Pipefest occurs on August 7 & 8 2010. The event is
taking place around the world with one of the largest
massed pipe band parades in the world to raise
money for cancer charities. There are events taking
place in Edinburgh, New York, Hong Kong, Sydney
and Ottawa.
The parade begins in Scotland where it will march
through Edinburgh. As these pipers reach the finale
of this stage of the event, bands in North America will
begin in their areas.
The goal is to unite the piping and drumming world in
a battle against cancer with a projected fundraising
goal of £500,000 for cancer charities around the
world.
The Canadian stage occurs in Ottawa on Saturday
August 7th. The goal for this stage is to raise $100
000 for the Canadian Cancer Society. It is being
organized by the Ottawa City Piping College.
If you have a PipeFest event happening in your area,
let us know and we'll post it on our website and
mention it in our newsletters.
