I for one, applaud both of these fine men. It takes vision and commitment to keep a band going past infancy. Chris has both of those. Both Mike and Todd are fine examples of this vision and commitment in getting the band(s) to the next stage of development.

I will not march in the front rank of the pipe corps if Mike McKee is not in there with me. Rank has its privileges and that should be one of them, IMHO.
