    When asked the question - "Why do Scots play the bagpipes on the way into battle?" the reply normally given "so the enemy knows who is coming and how long they have left to live...!"

    When its your first time in Scotland you're not prepared how Edinburgh blows you away, driving through the little villages stunning. In the city. OMG just beautiful. It was very weird as soon as you see the welcome to Scotland sign. It was a massive syi of being home. , Scotland you are the best, proud to be Scottish decendant . Awe the mascot just gorgeous, those bagpipes get me everytime... amazing.

    • @MacTaorluath
      @MacTaorluath 2 года назад +2

      Pipe bands come in all different sizes. There is something for everyone. Piping takes a lot of effort and is a huge time commitment, but learning how to play them is worth both the effort and the time. High level competition bands have become larger over the years, in order to produce the sound that they want. It is an enormous feat for them to be able to sound like one large bagpipe. The notes and embellishments must be executed at exactly the same time through a set of several tunes. It is a capricious instrument that requires constant maintenance, but is so rewarding to be able to play. You and Robert do have a point, though. The number of pipe bands and Highland Games have dwindled over the years, at least where I live. The piping community is a dedicated one, though, so while it might be going through a lean period, I doubt that its light will be extinguished.
      This is a lovely video!

If I myself were marching through a town I'd hope that everyone was just looking at their phones and not actually recognising our effort. That would make me so damn happy...I love to see people living their shitty lives through social media rather than reality. What in the name name of Christ is wrong with you people?
