  • Tim's bagpiping skills were terrific, and his selection of tunes for our guest of honor was perfect. Following his performance, he made himself available to answer questions about the bagpipe. He's very personable, has a great sense of humor, and is fun to deal with. Prior to the event, he followed up in a timely way. Just a great all-round experience! -- Jan R, Arlington, VA, 8/23/2008
  • everything went great! -- Lauren D, Washington, DC, 3/17/2009
