Private Party•Reviewed on January 29, 2017•From Lakewood, CO
Perfect! Scott piped using the Great Pipes outside as the guests to our annual Burns Dinner arrived, then switched to the small pipes for indoors. We, and our guests, were thrilled to have a live Bagpiper that didn't drown out the speakers, never played the same tune twice, and knew the exact and proper tune to pipe the Haggis in. Scott was gracious and pleasant and was happy to offer suggestions but not pushy or dictorial. We have already asked him to come back for next year. He sets a high bar that few, if any, will to able to top.

Scott is not only a fantastic musician and very professional, but he is also a wonderful person! His enthusiasm comes across in each note and left our guest of honor feeling awed and honored. I cannot express how wonderful the event was thanks to him!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 24, 2016•From Roswell, NM
Scott Beach is a five-star bagpiper and entertainer! We had a complicated surprise party planned and Scott accommodated our desire to enter the party presenting family members with grace and good humor. He took it upon himself to organize the entrance for effect and was indeed the hit of the party. He chatted with guests, my family and staff with ease. By the end of the evening, I felt he was part of our family! The ladies swooned, gentlemen admired, and we received many, many compliments during the evening. People LOVE the bagpipes!
I highly recommend Scott and would love to hire him again if given the opportunity!
Funeral•Reviewed on February 26, 2016•From Colorado Springs, CO
The very most important request that I had promised my partner of many years was to have the bagpipes play "Danny Boy" as the funeral procession left the church.
Scott's excuse was that the organist was playing. My understanding was that he was to handle this. Maybe they should have communicated prior to the memorial. Some thing like. "I will be playing the bagpipes while they escort the coffin out of the church." He also assured me that he would be playing as the guest arrived. I'm certain he is talented but it is difficult to comment as he did not make his presence well heard! Comment, from the people that came was that it wasn't the memorable!

Scott came in from a distance and surprised everyone at the golf course. He was such a great guy, very polite! When he was done, he turned around and walked off into the distance, just like a movie!
Graduation Party•Reviewed on May 25, 2015•From Gunnison, CO
Scott was wonderful. After driving a considerable distance to our event in less than ideal conditions, Scott was very accommodating. Communication prior to, and at the event was fantastic. It was evident that Scott wanted to make this a memorable occasion, which it was. Scott's musical talent is exceptional. Thank You Scott!!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 8, 2015•From Colorado Springs, CO
Scott came through for us! In the middle of a snow storm, he came all the way from Denver to makes sure my mother had a very special birthday! Everyone in the caste enjoyed his performance, especially my mother and her friends! Would highly recommend him and would love the opportunity to use his again or at least watch him perform.
Funeral•Reviewed on July 18, 2017•From Nederland, CO
This bagpiper cancelled our event ONE WEEK before the service. His services were scheduled 5 months in advance. I personally spoke with him a number of times before the actual event about location, directions, play lists. I even called him while out of the country to re-review the information one month before. We also spoke two weeks before and 10 days before. He obtained a better gig closer to town, so cancelled on us, putting our family and service in quite a turmoil one week before the service; created unnecessary worry and stress! Very unethical, upsetting, and unprofessional. Put our family and service in quite a turmoil one week before the service.
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 9, 2014•From Snowmass, CO
Scott was AMAZING. He was the final piece for our Irish Catholic wedding. He was prompt, professional, and incredibly talented. Truly the perfect component to our ceremony. All of our guests were impressed and it meant so much to my husband and I and my father. We HIGHLY recommend Scott and we are happy to provide any additional reference for him.
Funeral•Reviewed on May 21, 2014•From Anadarko, OK
Scott was beyond amazing. One thing my dad requested at his funeral was to have the bagpipes played, and he would've been proud and honored to have Scott playing at his funeral today. He was very accommodating, personable, and made sure everything was perfect, even when we frantically requested him last minute. I cannot thank Scott enough for making my dad's funeral everything he would've wanted. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone!

Scott was an absolute delight! Friendly, accomodating and professional for our same sex wedding, yet with a sense of humor and with outstanding talent. We knew we had the right man the minute we started talking with him about our needs on the phone, and he didn't disappoint. Our celtic wedding was perfect thanks to Scott!
Retirement Party•Reviewed on October 5, 2017•From Colorado Springs, CO
It was a superb experience. Mr. Beach was so accommodating and his musical selection perfectly set the mood for my retirement celebration. I will long cherish his contribution to its succes.
And now a word about Gigmasters: Their service was quick, easy to use and oh, so reliable. All in all, nicely done.
