 :laf: I'm a fan of bagpipe music myself, that was pretty cool.
I think they probably could have wore their shirts for the show, but :roflmao:

Wait a minute, Mike would kill me, there not a heavy metal bagpipe band but properly referd to as a Midevil metal band. Lot of there stuff has been around sense music started. And yeah they are pretty cool.

That was pretty cool. I've always enjoyed the traditional bagpipes myself, but I could listen to that as well.  :eyebrownod:

The lead dude is breaking the first cardinal rule for us fatboys though. Always leave your shirt ON !!!

Yep...Schelmish -  German Medieval Rock Band. I can't say I like all of their stuff. But a lot of it is pretty good. Did you guys notice the big boys elf shoes? :roflmao: I noticed some of their videos they wear even less...like just a loin cloth :holdon: At least the little guy...and I agree, the women do need to keep their clothes on. :puke:

I really like most of their stuff.  The vocals and some of the more quieter flute music gets boring.  But numbers like Chaos, Caput Draconis, and Kalifenzorn I could listen to all day.  They only have one tour concert outside Germany in 2010 and it's in the UK.  I'll bet they'd kick butt in Vegas.

That was pretty amazing...

what about non-traditional cello's ???   these guys turned cello's into heavy metal type music.  No electrical guitars here, sounds like it but its all cello's and a drum set.  Pretty freaky guys though...
