What's The Difference Between A Bagpipe And An Onion?

Skip to 4:30 on the clip below and then meet me back here. 'K?

Wasn't that just awful? Dreadful how some people make fun of bagpipes. You'd never catch me doing that. No sir. 'Cause I can run pretty fast.

Anyway, I bring the subject up because it's that time of year again when Kansas City becomes Bagpipe City for a weekend. The 10th anniversary edition of Winter Storm blows into town weekend after this one, January 14-16. Featuring the best in piping and drumming in both competitions and workshops, a huge Saturday night concert and the legendary Winter Steam afterparty. Seriously, I've heard stories that make Irish Fest after parties sound like Girl Scout meetings by comparison.

So throw that kilt on and get you some piping. All the details are here

I don't think we want him:
