Question: are bagpipes and kilts scottish or irish?
Answer: Bagpipes and kilts are not Irish Bagpipes sound great and men in kilts are fantastic (right ladies?), but they are not Irish; they're Scottish. Uilleann pipes are Irish, and they're quite different to bagpipes. They have a sweeter, quieter sound than the Highland Bagpipes people usually refer to as bagpipes.
