Shortcut: WP:PB

There are many piping articles on wikipedia, but not nearly as many as for other instruments, and not nearly as many articles on Pipe Bands as on other performance bands. In order to provide more in depth information on the subject, this project aims to:

1. Provide More information on Pipe Bands
2. Organize said information
