Today we have a pub crawl in Boston. It's going from bar to bar in like a six hour time frame. Start drinking when we get on the bus and finish around 10 pm. This is a trip with all the pipers in the band I'm wanting to join.
The band is The Manchester Regional Police and Fire Pipe Band, or MRPF. MRPF has been around for a while. They are an organization, so you can wright off anything you do with them, so that's a nice perk. They also compete, and they do local parades. I'm getting sized for my kilt soon, and well post a pick once I get it. The reason I said that is because I'm hopefully going to start marching with them soon. I sent the director of the band an e-mail, and I'm waiting to hear back if it's okay to start practicing. Maybe this trip will be good PR and I'll get to know the other pipers in the band.
I'm hoping to have the pipes by May 2010. If you want to help out, click on the adds, and that money will help me pay for pipes. They're rather expensive as you might thing. I think they run around $1600 at cost, so I can use all the help I can get. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for pics from tonight.
