now that was awesome!
reminds me of the first time I saw Tartanic at the Los Angeles RenFaire.  All of a sudden, "wow, so this is wut Graanny wus dalking abut." :D never understood the beauty of bagpipes, even when I saw Notre Dame's corps before football games.  Now I get it.  There's something special about what emotions can come out of that instrument. 

either that, or my Granny's side is starting to show itself again! :D

For additional awesomeness & because Portland is still one of my favorite cities, even if I can't live there anymore.

Apparently this guy got wildly popular when a viewer posted that video of him; he's getting on the news in Australia and had over 1 million views on his youtube with almost 24k FB likes on his FB page now: https://www.facebook.com/Badpiper?fref=ts

I have no idea how he'd be able to ride a bike while playing pipes, let alone a unicycle!  I play the pipes a bit, it's a family tradition, I also can ride a bike, although not well.  Bravo on that one!  thanks to Thorsteinn for posting it!
