My library is full of bagpipes as they get ready for a state police ceremony. The rain moved the event indoors and except for the state Capitol we have the biggest open space. Musical groups from 4 police organizations are hear for the event. I'll be deaf by the end but it's beautiful.

Claireluana I love bagpipe bands!!! We go to a Scottish Highland games every year and geek out! 7y
LibrarianRyan @Claireluana you would love it. There are at least 4 and maybe 5 pipe and drum corps, and one full band. Plus all the people. Event starts at 11 and all bridges are FULL 7y
Claireluana @LibrarianRyan that sounds amazing! Enjoy! 7y
Hooked_on_books I love bagpipes! But indoors? Not sure about that. 7y
