Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.
Anyone, using anything, can make music anywhere
This is VERY creative What men do in the "Men's Shed"
Bet you didn't know your tool/garden shed could make music!

When asked 'Why the Kilt?'
I respond-The why is F.T.H.O.I. (For The H--- Of It)
Clever & funny, but I suspect some of the sounds were dubbed on, as some of the 'instruments', e.g. the hosepipes with holes in, could hardly have produced the sound they 'contributed'.
The 'Hose Pipe' actually had a Clarinet mouthpiece so the 'holes'
produced the notes similar to the 'horn' of a bagpipe. Music for
the bagpipe is written in the key of A - ONLY. The Drones of the
bagpipe are the only tunable pipes.
The 'Hose Pipe' gave a good effect of a Clarinet.

I should've known better. Of course you're familiar with
bagpipes - duh The new medications I'm taking seem
to have an effect on my perceptiveness of what I'm reading
and trying to say back.
Anyway - as a side note - do you know the name of another
instrument that only plays music in the key of "A"
(HINT It has been around for many, many years and
provides amusement to children of all ages.)
