This post made it's way from the West Kingdom List, to the Ansteorran List,
and I think it really belongs here! Makes me want to take a road trip to San
Francisco!
>>For weeks I've been meaning to post this to the list, but it keepsslipping my
>>mind with all that's goin on. Lark In the Morning has just oppened a shop at
>>the Cannery on Fisherman's Warf, San Francisco. I dropped by yesterday and
>>it was like heaven. Harps of all sizes. A whole wall of penny whistles and
>>bones (they even have bones made of bone). Lots of concertinas. Jamaican
>>steel drums. Every type of mandolin/guitar you can think of. Banjos. Violins
>>of all sizes and even a couple of shapes. Drums, including rope drums. My
>>favorite, however, was the Wall o' Bagpipes, which have not only lots of
>>styles of highland and reel pipes, but ulian pipes, mederteranian pipes,
>>single drone pipes, a weird thing wth two chanters and three drones on a goat
>>bladder, and what they call "Medieval Pipes" styled to look like a set from a
>>Breughel painting. Very cool.

>>Patronize them, we need to keep this store around. (although it does remove
>>one more excuse for tripping to Mendocino.)
