The name explains it all.

Tell me what you think of it!

Cheers

Now if you could just get the lead tip from Shotts to write an "and-now-for-something-completely-different" drum section score for it... Maybe tighten up the heads to max+, and add another bass drummer or two.

This tune is definately a little wild. Does this say anything about your brother?

Keep em coming

And yes it deffinately is inspired by a less than normal brother, (not in a bad way

).

Hi Ben
You won't remember me but I play for the Taieri Pipe Band. This and "Johnny Harper" are brilliant tunes. I've learned Johnny Harper and this will be next on the list. You have an amzing talent for writing off the beat. I'm looking foward to the next tune
