Re: K&Q Concert Pitch Set

Me? Owe Dave? No. He misrepresented facts about a set of pipes and intimated that I altered a set of pipes that were the best D set I'd ever had the opportunity to play. He owes me an apology. And he owes the OP an apology as well.

What planet do you live on?

Re: K&Q Concert Pitch Set

I was indeed the prior owner of the set. Dave Boling....I made absolutely NO alterations to the set whatsoever! You should not comment on things that you know nothing about. If someone is spreading rumors let me know whop they may be as I'll take it up with them personally. I WILL NOT tolerate such ...

Re: Quinn set in C for sale

Great advice Tommy and I agree with you. I can get an awesome sound out of any reasonable set. I'm confident about that. I'll not part with this set until I can be certain of obtaining a set that meets my requirements and expectations. The set is priceless...to me. But, everything has a price. Right...

Re: Quinn set in C for sale

To those who have the courage to slag me on Facebook and not this forum or directly... the Uilleann piping community is characterized by a lot of lovely people..... and I've met many of my lifetime friends thru pipering. And, I've met some disgusting low lifes who are a waste of time. But, maybe, th...

FS/FT: Koehler & Quinn C uilleann set

Attention: Bargain Basement Shoppers!!! My friend Gabriel sent me a few sound files of his playing of his Geoff Woof C set last eve. THAT is the sound of the pipes that I have come to love and know thru recordings, live music performances, etc. THAT is what I wish my pipes sounded like. That etherea...

Business of the Uilleann pipes

Let me turn the business of buying and selling around for you and pose this scenario and see what you bag and bellow "professors" of truth and ethics think about it. Let's say, for the sake of illustration, that a man puts, over a period of time, $5600 down for a set of pipes with purchase...

Thanks for clarifying the title. Easy to understand it given that it was a quote in that setting.

Re: Ethics and the Sale of Pre-Owned ITM CDs

Unethical? Yes. Of course! Any money you make from the sale of a CD that you had created to some other storage form is you taking unfair advantage of the musician and the record company. This is a violation of the "license" that you agreed to upon purchase of the CD. You purchased a right ...

Re: Pipes- how is value determined?

Just a question for Glands. Did you at one time own this set of pipes ? http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q144/rorybbellows_album/willie.jpg RORY Damn. I guess I'll have to tell that story. Yes, indeed. I did own that set of pipes. They were lovely. Far too much pipes for me, though. They were cra...

Re: Pipes- how is value determined?

That's a preposterous notion by the maker you reference! It makes the assumption that "my time" and "your time" are worth the same. Do you not think that your time and the time of another person have equal value ? I value time my time. I cannot ascribe a value to someone elses t...
