I have a friend who is a student in Milledgeville that plays bagpipes. He might do it for a few beers :-)

I play. I don't have a set but am actually planning to get some in preparation for this year's Christmas Eve service at church.

Unfortunately, your wedding's the weekend of the workshop and I'll be in Marianna.

Better go with Forrest's guy.

As I stated before. I could probably play your wedding. I am an experienced bagpiper. I have a McNeil Kilt, and I currently teach the bagpipes and lead our Police Pipe/Drum Corps.

I have been pretty busy lately, and haven't had the chance to get back to you. If you click the youtube link down below in my signature, or click here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sYBjl_ot8Y) there are videos of the band that I lead playing in a parade here in NC. I could probably manage to slide down to Madison for the day.......

When one of my cave buddies gets back from Bonaire, I'll see if he'd be interested.

EDIT: I just had a schedule conflict with our departmental Police Memorial Service on this week. I will not be able to come down there on May 24!!! Sorry

So, are you volunteering to play the bag-pipes for the Marine Corps Color Guard at the start of the workshop before they present colors and our governmental officials give the welcome? ;-)

I dont have any bagpipes, but I have an old vacuum cleaner bag and a few dust wands I could super glue a kazoo and a slide whistle in the ends of. Will that work?
