Gaida, the Bulgarian Bagpipe ~~~ The Story of the Goat ~~~ A CHIFDC Reunion Revisited Story by Darrell Deeds Photography by Steve Turner
That gaida…
Whoa! That thing is loud!
I heard you play one of those, too.
It’s made from a goat, you say?
Come on, it’s not a real goat, is it?
He says it really is a goat!
No, this is no joke!
So, it’s really true…
If I had known, I wouldn’t invite him!
Everybody thinks it’s just terrible!
First they split the goat in two.
That’s disgusting!
Then they cut off its head…
That poor little goat!
They wouldn’t do that in Sweden!
We are so, so, sorry!
Who cares? It’s only a goat!
Don’t blame me, I’m a vegetarian!
A moment of silence…
May it rest in peace.
Psst! He’s right behind me.
Who wanted him here, anyway?
A petition to save the goats.
I think goat is mighty tasty!
