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 TheBuddha.

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.

Sweet, it's great to see another piper here! How far along are you in learning? I've been playing for about four years, but I still feel like a beginner in a lot of ways because I don't get the chance to practice regularly enough.

Only 4 months so well behind you. This is a multi year project.

Good news is that there is a rural pipe band nearby who does free practice lessons weekly. Which I'll join once business and kids grants me free time

Nice! I started playing on a whim, and ended up in my local pipe band, too. My instructor is the pipe major, it turned out, so I couldn't really say no. It's been really good for my playing, especially since we compete.

Fantastic. Well on your way.

I like small pipes and long for being good enough to justify buying a set

I think the key to learning anything new is finding a use.

That means you and i finding a crowd to play to (busking) or a band to join.

For a while, I was practicing weekly at the park, and that's been a lot of fun. I made some friends, I've randomly gotten some tips, and I've made a few people's day.

I was pirating books the other day and thought about you.

So, I pirated some books for you too!

Cool, thanks! I'll check it out when I get a chance.

I was pirating guitar books for Biff when I thought about my unread book on bagpipes. That made me think of you. So, I typed bagpipes into the search and the file contains a couple of books and a couple of papers about bagpipes. I figured I'd pirate 'em while I was already pirating books.

One of 'em looks pretty good and another one looks pretty informative. The other two are kinda meh looking. Enjoy!
