I been messing arund with chanters for around 30 years. While I haven't played with a band yet, I have been nominally associated with two, the first in Tallahassee, Fl, and most recently, The Father of Waters in Jackson, MS. I am interested in Celtic heritage, and helped to found the Golden Triangle Celts here in Starkville, MS. By vocation I am a Russian Orthodox Priest, and playing the bagpipe is one of the items on my bucketlist before I am called home. As a result, I am quite motivated, and look forward to experiencing what this program has to offer.
