Dear List, I've had several enquiries as to how i plan to interpret the rules for the piping comps at Rothbury this year, as i once again find myself in the unenviable position of having to judge.....
The rules themselves are published on the festival website. The rules for the open are confusing to some people who feel 4 minutes is not long enough to play a decent variation set. My view for this year is as follows: I would rather hear variations so will be loose with the 4 minute rule. The rule about tunes only once through sticks though (even though i dislike it) If anyone plays more than 8 minutes it'll count against them. I hope that clears things up a little. Please pass this on to anyone who may be interested - i'm sure I've now left anyone without access to this list at a terrible disadvantage which i will be reminded of for a long time......
