1. I went to a Madonna concert almost a decade ago. She had a conveyor belt
going along the front of the stage. During one song she and this piper were doing Russian Cossack knee dips/kicks while he was blaring his bagpipes and she was singing. It was quite the juxtaposition.

2. No wonder the loyalists classified them as instruments of war during the uprising of the 1700s.

You see an army of Scots bearing down on you with this blaring...you're bound to crap your knickers.

12. God no! Not the bagpipes!
The most annoying instrument known to man! If I never hear another bagpipe playing Amazing Grace it will be too soon!
