    Band is Coldstream Guards. The Bagpipers are Scots Guards. The Coldstream Guards don't have bagpipes, only the Scots and Irish guards have bagpipers in the Guards division.

    @century21music It's quite common for the Drum Major to be from a different Guards (Grenadier, Coldstream, Scots, Irish or Welsh Guards) Regiment from that of the band they lead, usually because of availability. They also borrow a small number of musicians from one of the other regimental bands if needed. There are only small differences in the ceremonial uniform between the five regiments. Only the Scots Guards and the Irish Guards have pipers. I enjoyed your videos.

    To those saying that the Coldstream guards are Scottish, the Coldstream guards were first formed as a regiment of the English new model army. They later inherited the name Coldstream from the town of Coldstream which is on the border of Scotland and England. So if anything they are an English regiment, if nationality is so important to you.

      yes, a sad history, a painful life experience and it could be and should be remembered by those suffered and their following generations for a long time. and it should be particularly remembered and have a deep reflection by those who did these. it might be hard to find the true reason -- maybe some of them hadn't expected to do what they were ordered, maybe some of them wouldn't walk the same way a second time after experiencing once with regrets. and sometimes people may think more about how to move forward along with these memories. br.

    I guess it's the first time for the Coldstream guards coming to Urayasu, at least true in the last 10 yrs.
    Even if it's not such a special event but only a traditional holiday, you may notice many people switch to brighter and colorful-than-usual clothes, going to the park or the streets nearby, enjoying various kinds of petit foods, beer and playing simple games with their families or friends. In that sense, they are the people living here and the tourists enjoying the life around.

    If anyone would like to know the origin of the red tunics, it was chosen by the British army for a very macabre reason, because it hid the blood of officers from the men, and the blood of the men from other men. Battles were won and lost by the guys who stood longest when the Musket was king, it was one of the reasons why others believed it so difficult to break a British regiment. Very clever psychology. The other reason it was so hard, is because of the music.

      I've obviously never stood in the thin red line to take and receive musket fire. I have witnessed squads of marching men grow a full inch on initially hearing the sounds of the band though.

      That is actually a myth. It was chosen as it was the cheapest dye.

    • @thomastucker7317
      @thomastucker7317 3 года назад +2

      Unfortunately not the case, it was just that that particular red was quite cheap, in high supply, and still was in the British flag so it made sense. It is also unlikely it would hide the blood of the wounded any more than if you were to imagine bleeding onto a red T-shirt, it'd look very dark. Also if you're getting shot by a musket, the calibre and stopping power of the balls would fuck you up, whether you can see the wound or not its not as if you're going to keep marching in formation, you're going down.

      That's total rubbish.
      Red was chosen for the British Army coat as it happened to be in plentiful stock and it was the cheapest colourd cloth they had.
      True.

    If you watch the documentary the Gren Guards Major standing next to Drum Major Staite actually says his name as an introduction 'Drum Major Staite', so are you saying the Major does not know his name as well as you ? There is no such position as senior drum major of the British Army. There are three drum majors appointed to London District as I mentioned before.

  • @adelaide102
    @adelaide102 12 лет назад

    The Drum Major here is DM Staite,who is Drum Major London District. There are three Drum Majors stationed in London who are available to join Guards Bands on occasions like this. Senior Drum Major Household Division, Drum Major London District,and Drum Major Headquarters Footguards.The other five Drum Majors are attached to their battalions, and will usually lead the Regimental Band when parading with their battalion.

    Coldstream Guards - Infantry Regiment in the Household Division of the British Army.
    The Coldstream Guards were formed in Coldstream, Scotland in 1650.
    British Army, not English, there's no such thing.

      And I fully agree with you, It's British, not English, butt hay doesn't change it used to be a English regiment named after a border town.

    I'm not sure what criteria are used for you to see these people like tourists. But I guess the impression you got is just like what you commented, especially for this not-culture-based, unusual and one-time event. The mayor of Urayasu city is also sitting there enjoying it --not only that, the whole parade, including the marching bands from other prefectures, actually lasted for about 2 hours.

    Yes, It is a u-turn bus terminal near the park. A dozen meters away is the beach that was seriously damaged by the earthquake of 3.11 and it is still under re-construction now. It's true a better place is good for the parade, but the theme of the parade is for the earthquake.
