    So a South African playing a Scottish instrument idolized by a little Irish boy in Canada ? 😂 I love it lol
    This is too precious! Not many people appreciate the beauty of the pipes these days but they obviously called to this little one’s soul ❤️

      I started playing when I was 9, took a couple of decades off and have been playing again for the past 15 years. Once, on St. Patricks Day, I was playing a solo in a beer tent when I noticed that a small kilted child was "playing" a toy bagpipe in front of me. We immediately made him an honorary band member.

    "Frankie will soon learn that people will pay him to stop playing" lol!

    A piper is someone who is proficient on the instrument. Calling this guy a piper is an insult to all the pipers out there who actually took the trouble to learn their craft.

      And his clothing is ghastly.,.,. No where in Scottish history is pink like this ever worn... Please dont tell me its the woke society again .... Tired of that. This is not upholding True Scottish culture at all. And his pipes are out of tune.... Eish

  • @eyekarumba
    @eyekarumba Před 3 lety

    Hopefully little Frankie will actually learn to play and tune his pipes......
