      Go easy on the wee ones. For their innocence is why they fought to end the wretched war.

      This is why I never play publicly, or let anyone record it. There is ALWAYS a curmudgeon like this... that no matter how perfect, no matter how much it cost, no matter how much practice.. they can't simply appreciate the tune or the player for the moment... they simply can't help murdering the effort over some perceived "pity". You sir, are a worthless shrew of a man that didn't deserve this pipers least effort. The rest of us loved it, so pound sand.
