don't worry...I started to learn the practice chanter at the age of 54 with a local Pipe Band...I love it...now I'm 56 and have just assembling my first set of bagpipes...soon we gonna make our first step to blow in that "monster" (why a "monster"?...I did that already but could't get any sound out of that thing) :p

I like the sound of the bagpipes...I practice my know tunes often on the practice chanter...and hopefully I can play them also on my bagpipe...

I have a "target" now....I shall - must- and will play the bagpipe :)
