Scotsman walks for charity
June 18, 2009 -- Super Scotsman Rob Calder, a 32 year old bagpiper from Edinburgh, is piping his away across the United States for charity. Calder will spend six weeks "busking" -- playing his bagpipes for tips in public -- from coast to coast, rain or shine, relying on the kindness of locals and people of Scots descent to host him along the way. He will also offer a piping performance for room and board or a charitable donation.
