The Grass On the Other Side of the Fence

Happy Monday!

Guess what this crazy drummer did this weekend...

After not sleeping two days in a row, due to gigging and some necessary drum maintenance, I took in my very first piping recital!!!

I've been sick too so toss some cold medicine into that and you've got a serious challenge on your hands.

It was really impressive. Matt MacIsaac opened for Allisdair Gillies, and I caught the whole show.

It really showed me how impressive piping can be. I often take a minute at practice to just listen to our wonderful pipe corp during their tuning. It amazes me every time, but yesterday's show really threw it down.

Of course, I would have loved a little drumming tossed in, but Matt played two whistles at once.... c'mon.

I'm b-lining for the end of the day and can't wait to hit my bed. But I just wanted to pop on and thank the Winnipeg Police Pipe Band for sponsoring such a great event in our city.

Cheers,

Sean
