Hope you had a great Hogmanay, and a very Happy New Year to you all this morning. I finally worked out how to get videos to upload to Bluesky, so now you can follow the Lindsay System journey on here, too. All the best for 2026!!! #lindsaysystem #smallpipes #bagpipes #scottishmusic #folkmusic

A feed of bagpipe-related posts focusing on instruments that are *not* the Great Highland Bagpipe: Northumbrian smallpipes, uilleann pipes, musette de cour, etc. You think you don't like the bagpipes, but you most likely have only heard ONE out of the 130+ in the World ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
