I'm way too paranoid to post my picture ON THE INTERNET, so here: have a drawing of an anime character I really, really look like. Because I know you all fucking love anime.
Yo, I guess there's no pain in putting up a pic of myself. Too bad that I keep forgetting my password, but I'm "Xile" or the guy who did that Harvest Moon: Back to nature Town Theme Tab after 4 months of playing guitar XD. Here's a few pics of myself: This was Taken a few minutes ago.
That's me with a beard about a year and a half ago.
You guys might have seen me on http://madmindinc.deviantart.com/ that's my Older Sister's Deviantart account, check it out if you'd like. Well, back to doing whatever it is I was doing.
Heh, it's an old picture (1 year and half). I removed the posters, the banner and I don't play electric guitar anymore.
But I still wear this Pantera shirt. =)
The Great Highland Bagpipes are one of the hardest to master. The music part is fairly easy, you only have a possible 9 notes to deal with. But there are a couple movements that can be tricky, they are made up of grace notes... some of many as like 7 or 8 grace notes in one movement called the crunlueth a mach.
But the realt tricky part is being able to not just play the music, but keep your drones going steady at the same time. You need to keep a fairly constant pressure inside the bag. So that means blowing your brains out and squeezing the bag while you inhale.. at the same time while marching and playing your tune.
It's a whole lot to do at once.
But I've heard the uilliene(sp?) pipes are even harder to master, instead of being mouth blown they are bellows blown. So you'd have your air bag under your left arm and a bellows under the right. I'd imagine it would be like doing the chicken while trying to play music.
So yah, there is truth to it. I don't know about it being the #1 hardest, but it's gotta be pretty close to it.

You're not missing out on anything, then.
He's the bassist for Fall Out Boy, and is an item with Ashlee Simpson. So, that's batting .500 right there.
Oh, and to contribute (though these are 2 years old at this point:)

A pose with my bagpipes

And a face shot
I'd give you a pic of my guitar, but its nothing special - a yamaha C40, which I got because it was cheap and I was poor.
