Josh, the other, (not quite as pretty,) half of the Chanter Rant and mastermind behind so, so many excellent offerings from the Las Vegas Pipe Band lets me question him for much longer than he should've.

Wetootwaag,) hosts an excellent podcast where he explores the likely repertoire of eighteenth and early nineteenth century bagpipers, using historic music collections (written for bagpipes or not), and he performs tunes from these collections on Uilleann pipes, Highland pipes and whistles, along with occasional guest musicians. In this episode we talk about, (and listen to,) a few tracks from an album Jeremy's recent album of awesome old tunes - I highly recommend checking it out: Oyster Wives Rant I was flattered at his willingness to come onto Droning On for an interview - he's a wealth of knowledge and I've been extremely excited to share this interview with you, friends!
