Dave Bagpipes
Brooks
( The Green Man)
Available for all working
levels, including weddings,funerals, and divorces. Now working
with his own band ("Sham-Rock" Ceilidh Band. He has worked with many artists in the past such as Carl Douglas,
Manfred Mann, Joan Armatrading, Graham Bond, Elkie Brooks, George
Harrison, Phil Collins, Count Dracular, The Barber of Saville (who
gave him the haircut in the photo), Uncle Tom Cobly and all. He
has also worked on the alternative comedy scene with Arnold Brown,
Malcolm Hardy and Keith Allen (whose record company still owes him 60 poonds!).
He was also the Piper in the London production of "Brigadoon"
and has since been sent to sleep for 100 years. He also became
quite famous recently as "The Piper of Hampstead Heath",
when he took the mighty Corporation of London who prosecuted him
for playing his bagpipes on Hampstead Heath, a great David and
Goliath story which he lost, he has released 3 albums of his own
and never sold 1 copy, if you would like to go down in history as
the 1st person to buy one email him.
His music is Dull and boring so it should fit in with your collection. It incorporates many
styles and is hard to categorize his latest album "Piper on
the Heath" is solely bagpipe music but even this record
could not be termed "orthodox", by Piping Officianados
as most of them are boring bastards, but the album is interesting
as it incorporates many different influences.
You really must book him to play for you and/or some sort of
function! Press to send email
