Bagpipe kinds across europe

A sweet website I found, with a picture of each bagpipe

Too bad it's in italian - sometimes a picture worth a thousand words.

I was thinking that a lot of the pictures looked really familiar until I remembered Oliver Seeler's Web Site The Universe Of Bagpipes featuring Sean Folsom at http://www.hotpipes.com/main.html

Good spot Greg, some of those pics do look quite familiar.

Some of the geography gets a little faulty as well--Polish pipes in the Netherlands, Hungarian at the Ukraine/Slovakia border, and the Balkans are all messed up (aren't they always?).

The map is a bit off alright.
Also looks like the Baltic Sea is a new country.

That's Sean's arsenal alright. "The largest Celtic webstore in Italy." Photos and downloads all look to be of a GHB nature too.

Pity they didnt take the time to do it properly...lifting Jpg's.... omitting a dozen or so pipes...then there's that whole geography snafu...would've been a nice site otherwise....

You're near Santa Cruz, right? Why don't you just knick the veuze that Ray Price has got?

Then again, I seem to remember that his might be in D or something...

Give it up Joseph. We all love ya, but the no non-UP pipe moratorium was a really hopeless idea.

Like inviting a bunch of alcoholics to a bar and then trying to get them to only talk about wine coolers.

By the way, speaking of Uillean pipes, I got a really neat set of NSPs yesterday. Wooohoo!

If it makes you feel any better, I've taken to calling my NSPs and SSPs "Lil' Uilleanns".
