OK - Used to sit in with a band playing Irish trad stuff... called themselves Ceoltori Gan-am - they couldn't think of a name... Used to play in a band called The KWILS - took the first letter of the last name of the members and - schazam! a band name! Currently play in a pipe band from Windor, Ontario, made up traditionally of members of Windsor Police Service or RCMP. They decided to allow civilians in to broaden the depth of ability and help the band be more competitive - and generally put on better performances. They are, and do. It is, logically, the Windsor Police Pipe Band. BTW, membership in that band makes it a bit less of a hassle when ya tell the border guards you're on your way to, or coming back from, pipe band practice... returning from a performance, still in uniform, also is remarkably easy.
