Spain also has a rich piping culture in which they play the galician gaita, a Spanish bagpipe. Here's a funny video I found of a fella playing a tune that was originally written for the Highland pipes played on his gaita:

What an unbelievable weekend!
I'm not sure we passed 70 since my hands were getting chilly again at 3:00pm. Loved David Arkenstone, and since the weather was so fabulous we got to see more shows than we had originally thought we would.

So, the King can't request a bit of flexibility in the schedule every once in a while?

Arkenstone was great! We would have bought a CD but they had ran out on Sunday. He said he'd be back next year...here's hoping!

Not so "good to be da king?"  Alas, I was at another faire—no offense.
