The story is nice, but where is a link for music? :)

[goodwithagun]

My husband is a firefighter, and nothing brings me to tears like “Amazing Grace” on the bagpipes.

[DManA]

I always liked the pipes (in small doses). Unfortunately you only hear them now when a cop dies.

Great report and excellent picture, Conor!

[ConorMacNessa]

Not to sound irreverent, but I hear the pipes every time I taste a good Single Malt.

[real saxophonist]

No, not Madison, not Cavaliers, not Two Seven, I don’t know.

[Mears]

Hearing the pipes at the Edinburgh Tattoo was one of the most moving experiences of my life.

Music? on the pipes?

My scotch ancestors tended toward the fiddle. They made real music

[real saxophonist]

When I was on Parris Island, I offered to play Amazing Grace on tenor saxophone at the Chapel, but the powers that be said no.

That was such a disappointment. I really thought I could help my fellow recruits.

[RckyRaCoCo]

Heh, I don't think I would have made water-boy for those hornlines.

The uniform was from a small senior corps I was in(very briefly)eons ago, the pic was my attempt to do Bonnie Ott's "Chase The Clouds Away" solo using my brothers mellophone(my attempt failed miserably of course).

My brother was the drum corps guy in the family, he marched with several Jr. Sr. corps in the 70's & 80's.
