Re: Groped by women when performing?

Yep, groped once, on a St. Pat's night bar hop
late 1980's. (The 'toasted' gal on the barstool
appeared to be re-living the 70's... and also the
night before.)

Photo's? Not that I know...

Re: Old pipes/goose restoration

OK, for starters, what do you have to lose,
by trying? How many marked 'Glen' bags
are out there?

Re: BDF AOH to log off?

That 'Remember Me' box gets checked,
each time I need to log in. Very often it
doesn't... that's a recent thing over the
last month, or so.

Re: Why the bidding on these pipes?

So far, the seller has been quite up front with
what's on offer - and the bids are right in line
with other 'mideast bargains'.

Please don't scream, just pray some newbie
doesn't quit...

Re: Selbie inverted bass ; update

That joint gets a LOT of stress. It's where we tune,

As you approach the cutoff, and attempt to empty
your bag, the weight of your drones presses into
the collapsing bag, partially maintaining pressure,
so your reeds continue to sound.
