I do however have a photo of the wondrous Adrian Schofield (click) who has been known to play with PP at the Bulls Head session in Manchester, which smallpiper has been threatening to visit. Perhaps we could get a massed piping session going, Vicki, with Northumbrian pipers too such as mudcatters 8pints and John Routledge? :0) |

Those who do not know him may or may not be surprised to learn that he is a wonderful wonderful player of the Northumbrian Small pipes - generally in a traditional way. Adrian also plays at Peveril of the Peak session just off Oxford Street in central Manchester on Tuesdays. Looking forward to hearing you play KP |

05 Sep 03 - 09:34 AM (#1013304) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: kitchen piper I have no idea why it's now BS! Ho hum! ok, I'm kicking the kitchen session off with er, um, ok "John Macmillan of Barra" (I found the dots yesterday, cracking tune) I'd love to find some way of actually having this virtual session. There has to be a way. If you guys can record the tunes you suggest and mail them to me, I can stitch it together maybe. I have no problems hosting it! Anyone up for it? Or am I just loopy? lol :-)) Vix |

05 Sep 03 - 09:43 AM (#1013309) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: Morticia You probably are loopy,Vix but as that is an esential requirement here, no matter. How do you visualise this virtual session working then? |

05 Sep 03 - 12:10 PM (#1013393) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: weepiper Hi and welcome Kitchen Piper (that's a great tune by the way) I play Scottish smallpipes, border pipes and GHB, although I've just had an enforced 3 month break from all piping due to having had a baby 3 weeks ago (even the bellows wouldn't fit with the bump!). Picked up my border pipes again for the first time today - oh it's great to be able to play again :) yaaay the pipes! |

05 Sep 03 - 12:20 PM (#1013400) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: Morticia Congratulations Weepiper......what flavour child did you have? |

05 Sep 03 - 12:22 PM (#1013401) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: smallpiper Hey Weepiper! So come on what variety was it? I've got my border monsters at last (well since last we spoke) Vix says they are easier to play than hers but I tell you they are bloody unforgiving ... but when I get it right wow! erm about this virtual session vix you're as mad as a chip but that fits in well with the rest of us ... so how's it going to work? Father John MacMillan is a good starter what about the Home wrecker to follow? |

05 Sep 03 - 12:37 PM (#1013412) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: weepiper thanks chaps..... I had a girl, Sophie - 7lbs 9 and a half oz. And she has nice long fingers so will obviously be a piper when she grows up, although her dad is trying to sabotage this by playing the fiddle to her.... The birth was pretty hard but we are both ok now, although I dare say it'll be a while before I feel up to blowing the big pipes :O |

05 Sep 03 - 01:43 PM (#1013460) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: Eric the Viking Welcome. Saw you at Fylde-very impressed with all of you. If you are half mad, you'll be fine here. Completely mad, you'll be right at home. I like the way you name sets of tunes, perhaps there'll be one such as;"Oh dam, the pc's crashed again" or something. Have fun. Cheers Eric |

05 Sep 03 - 05:33 PM (#1013563) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: smallpiper Welcome Weepiper's Sophie! Weepiper she can play both but (I predict) will choose the pipes as her first instrument. |

06 Sep 03 - 06:45 AM (#1013828) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: Pied Piper Hi Vicki and welcome. A Manchester Piper's get together sounds like a great idea, but we have moved the Monday night Session from the Bull's Head to the Pot of Beer. It is located on New Mount St just of Rochdale Road between the Beer House and the Marble Arch. The pub has 4 real ales (changing regularly) and a couple of scrumpies (dangerous) all well kept. We play a lot of the Smallpipe stuff because Adrian Scofield is a regular. As you probably know we have the same session (well you know what I mean) in the Castle, Oldham ST on Fridays. PP |

08 Sep 03 - 12:08 PM (#1014812) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: kitchen piper Hi! Ok, I've been thinking about this session long and hard. My first thought is that every person records their tune and e-mails it to me. I stich it together, maybe 3 times through each tune and 3 tunes per set. I create a webpage with the audio track on it and also the dots that people can play along to. While we're trying this for size I am investigating other more flashy possibilites. To give you an ideam has anyone been to the radio 2 online session? It's wild; Click here to visit the site! You need a recent version of flash but it's worth it. What I think would be nice would be to develop a tool that would mean we could layer our very own online session. I need to bang my head against a wall for a while, but it might just be possible! Let's start simple and see what we get! :-)) Vix |

08 Sep 03 - 01:25 PM (#1014862) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: smallpiper Good idea vix tape ok? |

10 Sep 03 - 07:57 AM (#1016186) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: weepiper .......I'm getting a horrible vision of ten pipers all slightly out of tune with each other.....if it were'nt for that this would be pretty cool... |

10 Sep 03 - 08:32 AM (#1016208) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: smallpiper but she has the technology to speed up and slow stuff down thereby altering the pitch of the individual instruments. Don't know if she can do anything about the bum notes that I will produce though! Hows the wee un? |

12 Sep 03 - 05:03 AM (#1017393) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: kitchen piper This sounds like a challenge to me! I've been talking to a programmer here at the lab and we're on the case! In the meantime though, What I'd like to produce is a session tune learning tool, somewhat like the radio 2 virtual session, the difference being, er I'd like you guys to send me tunes from your sessions, I'll put them together into a flash document and put it on some of my webspace. It'd be great to showcase some of our stuff!. I think it should be piper orientated. So if you guys have a session and can put a tune or two to minidisk, I'll do the rest. It'd give me a good excuse to try to visit one or two as well. (I'm really not crap at sessions, so it'd do me good!) First session in Hull? Let's book a date!!!!! :-)) Vix |

13 Sep 03 - 02:39 PM (#1018210) Subject: RE: New member Kitchen piper From: Barry T KP> Are there many pipers here on mudcat? KP> What do you guys all play? Hi and welcome, Kitchen Piper! I [ photo ] play GHB and mouthblown smallpipes, but I've retired from the competition band scene to focus on the smallpipes lately. I also play guitar, and love to jam with smallpipers. I have an interest in creating notation files of tunes and sets to accompany smallpipes in the key of D, with chords for the guitarist, melody line for fiddle, etc. |
