The Piper’s DoJo and Pipehacker.com present Bagpipe Nation, the first ever live piping podcast bringing you the latest discussions on bagipes, bagpipe music, competition, and news. Listen in as we discuss the topics of the day on the minds of American pipers and drummers, speak with special guests, and take calls from listeners.
Bagpipe Nation launches January 20 at 7:00 p.m. and will be webcast live every Thursday 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. EST. Hosted by Andrew Douglas, SFU alumnus and PM of the Oran Mor Pipe Band and Vince Janoski, former editor of The Voice magazine, the show promises to provide a unique perspective on bagpipes, drums, music, and the current happenings on the US piping scene.
