Q: why do bagpipe players walk when they play?
A: it’s a desperate attempt to get away from that SOUND!

Always LOVED Roxy Music and Andy Mackay’s Oboe playing. Born in 1946, he’s still going strong, IIRC.

I have nightmares of being locked in a room with pipe organ music and bag pipe music and Jessica Tarlov’s voice on a sound system!!!
