Dunedinburgh Tattoo Gimmick
Last weekend I was involved with a performance given by the combined City of Dunedin pipe bands. Because I am a new member of the band, and because not many supporters of the band know my face, I played a role in an opening sketch whereby I was disguised in... Continue reading

Bagpipe music + copyright
Isn't it interesting that there is very little copyright protection in the world of fashion design? Designers, as it turns out, rip each other off all the time. Consumers like you and me do not often need to look far for perfectly sufficient 'imitation' designs of much higher-priced shirts, shoes... Continue reading

I Love Clubs & Societies at Otago
I was rather upset when I composed my last post, for I had just encountered an angry and 'not-very-nice' neighbour. However, the world of piping has once again been balanced, this time with the assistance of OUSA and Otago's Clubs and Societies building. I approached the Otago University Students' Association...

My Poor, Poor Bagpipes [Edited]
Just now I have encountered the rudest person who has ever interrupted my bagpipe practice. She said her name was Queenie and that she was my neighbour. It seemed that she had nothing to say for a while, until she asked, "Can you play those things somewhere else?" I said... Continue reading

Music at Otago 28/02/11
Well I made it. It has been about eight months since I started applying for universities and after a somewhat laid-back holiday of working and learning to drive, today I was shoved back into action with a powerful force. After only one day of lectures, I believe I have a... Continue reading

Octagonal Day: Dunedin's Pipe Band Competition
Feeling right at home this weekend, I enjoyed watching and listening to many of the South Island's highland bagpipe bands competing in the Octagon. From what I recall of the annual RNZPBA Summer Schools, South Island piping is 'interesting' and kind of 'weird', but yesterday and today I was quite... Continue reading
