Reading A_Conservative_in_Cambridge's question about FReeper musicians (noting how the Left likes to turn out with their silly little drums), in his excellent report on the Rally in Harvard Square (that's right!), I got to wondering how many pipers and Scottish drummers there are among Freepers (I know of one locally). This would be an excellent opportunity to put down the Left even further, by turning out for rallies.

These fine gentlemen made our Rally in Des Moines even more memorable a couple of weeks ago:

My husband plays an Irish Bodhran...is that close enough? He doesn't play bagpipes, but does have a kilt. I know there are bagpipers in Columbia and would love to hear them play at a rally.
To: EternalVigilance
Interesting... Attaching a flag to the bass drone. Hmmm...

I play a mean djembe (drum), both here at home and at Amtgard events. I hope to acquire a much better one than the one I have on the Freeper cruise.

Aye aye, Mr. Williams, thank you for the Roll Call!
It looks like Washington, Maine, Missouri, Florida, and Iowa are well accounted for. Now, we just need a few pipers and drummers from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to step forward and be counted!

How about a "used to be music major" 1st clarinet player?
