On Tuesday August 23rd, Sky News visited our band room in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent. They were covering a story on ‘Bagpipers Lung’ and following up on the possible links with brass players. A small group performed for the camera and MD Mike Caveney discussed intrument cleanliness with the Sky reporter. A number of the players were also involved in discussing how often the clean their instruments, most admitting that it was not as often as they should!
