Paul, you're a heathen....there's nothing sweeter on the ear than the skirl of the pipes!!
Seriously, and semi on topic, Scottish soldiers have a long history of playing the pipes going into battle to intimidate their enemies. There was actually an article in one of the newspapers a couple of weeks ago about a Scottish volunteer at the battle of the Alamo who allegedly played the pipes to drown out Mexican musicians (I think they were buglers).
