Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link (fngt.gq). That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask COF, Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then you can donate.

Auld Lang Syne (vocaroo.com) on electronic practice bagpipe. Happy new year.

How similar are the electronic pipes to regular pipes - as far as playing them goes?

[–] [deleted] • 3 pts

Not much at all. The one I have is just a stick with metal contacts where the holes would be. No bag under my arm, no drones on my shoulder, no mouth piece. Don't have to worry about tone rising and falling because I'm not using air, which is a significant part of the challenge of sounding any good on pipes. The metal contacts stick out, so they're much easier to find and don't require as finicky of fingering position as the holes on the real chanter.

It feels like cheating to present music I play on it, really, so I haven't done it much. But I can't play the full pipes at home, either, and I didn't want to share nothing today because I couldn't round up the family and get them to the park.

Well, I still appreciated it.
