Should be an epic weekend. We expect to open Registration in January.

The South East Uilleann Piper's Club is pleased to announce that this year's Tionol will feature Brian McNamara, Kieran O'Hare, Pat Broaders and Liz Knowles. This year's Tionol has been moved from Atlanta to Tybee Island, so please note the new location! Tybee Island is a very bike friendly and walk...

There are also a few rooms still available at the Inn. So you're not forced to sleep in the stable

I assume you're already aware of these folks, but I realize they're all far far to the north of you.

Hear ye' hear ye', may I have your attention please? Pat Sky will be working his magic on the reedmaking in support of the Tionol.

The closest piper to you I believe is Mike Hay in Augusta. I sent you his email in a PM. I'll be in Savannah on the weekend of Feb 4-5 (actually Tybee Island), but will likely go to the session in Savannah on Sunday. I'm trying to get down there about once a month or so. I'd be happy to help you wit...

I put this together back when I first started making reeds. It describes the geometry and relationship between the various diameters. However, that being said, I've since found that trial and error is a better teacher..find the right diameter sanding cylinder for the chanter/staple combo. "Righ...

I have a concert pitch chanter I made out of Lemonwood. Sounds mellower. Seems like the lemonwood takes some of the harshness off.

I talked to Mike Thrift, the Inn owner and there are still a few rooms left for the piping weekend. They are a small inn, so book soon if you want to stay there. http://www.the-skyline.com/ Remember, you have to call them and mention the piping weekend 828-765-9394 As Cathy said, its a very pleasant...
