Hi everybody,

Pipes in Aruba? Did my Scottish heart good to hear about that.

After having to listen all about the latest Irish pub, and where the best places to celebrate St. Patrick's Day are, and on and on, isn't wonderful to know that an advanced civilization (read Scottish) has finally arrived in Aruba?


After hearing this fellow, I just bet hotels up and down the beach will be featuring pipers during Happy Hour. I'm not pushing my luck here, am I?

Have good one,


Glenn

Thanks for the compliment Andrea.

Funny, yes but it doesn't stop there. Smart, thoughtful, handsome...I could go on but anything more would just be crass self-promotion and I'm just not into that.

But Andrea, you didn't answer the question (It was implied, not outright asked.). Would you go to Happy Hour if you knew there was going to be bagpipes? Be honest now!

Chadd,
Maybe it's not the guitar playing that makes others look at you...ever consider it's what you are playing and if you are tune or not ???

BTW....I am just kidding...

Nothing drives me crazy more than a guitar that is out of tune, I spend a lot of time checking the intonation on all of my guitars (seven at last count) every month. My playing is always in tune, it's my singing that induces pain.

Hi Andrea,

I just noticed that you might be in Aruba when we are there. We're booked in at The Mill from Friday, Jan.15 - Mon. Jan.25, 2010.

It would be great if we could meet. We should, of course, move this to the "Meet me in Aruba" section.

Bagpipes and a steel drum band in the same place? We'd have Happy Hour all to ourselves! Lol.
