August 15, 2025Couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience!
From my initial online search to find a bagpiper for a special event, to requesting quotes on gigsalad, to hearing back almost immediately from bagpiper Mike Breidenbach, to messaging back-and-forth with Mike to confirm all the necessary details, to online payment, to Mike arriving on the day of the event early with a smile and plenty of time to go over last minute questions, to his perfect performance... I couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience of hiring Mike and going through gigsalad.
