I just scanned the FAQ and there's one topic I would like to add. Every week or so I see (and answer) a "How do I find a piper" post on the soc.culture.scottish/celtic newsgroups or on the various wedding newsgroups (alt.wedding, soc.couples.wedding)
Could you add a something that recommends that they post their inquiries to
the rec.music.makers.bagpipe newsgroup or send e-mail to
mailto:bagpipe@cs.dartmouth.edu. Their inquiry needs to include both
the location and the date of the event. They should also note what kind
of pipes they want.
