Sorry lads, Portadown Defenders and the Auld Boys paraded Portadown on July 13th 2011 with 8 colour party, 4 drum majors, 32 drums, 4 cymbals, 5 bass drummers, 80 flutes and 2 marshalls making a total of 134 members. It was simply breathtaking.
we did a combined flute band on 11th night for a few years, tobermore,maghera, dunamoney,ballymoughan,and a few others all joined together, im sure there's vids uploaded somewhere... check Tobermore 11th night
Yes Richardsons always had these bands in for their drinks. Tobermore was a great village to have our 12th of July. I come from Tobermore . ❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
sorry lads i think that the portadown defenders flute band was alot bigger on the 13th of july look at the vids on here....well done keep up the good work.....fgau
There was a parade in glencairn in. Late 80s called the 1000. Flutters parade was way bigger than this if anyone remembers it including accordion bands at the end

James, your forebears would have been spat on by theirs. McCann is an Irish surname derived from Mac Cana, meaning "son of Cana". The Irish personal name Cana literally means "wolf cub", and was a term for a young warrior. The Mac Cana were a Gaelic Irish clan who held the lands of Clancann and Clanbrassil, together known as Oneilland, in what is now northern County Armagh.
Hillcluney in Banbridge, Pride of the Hill Rathfriland with Kilcluney Volunteers Markethill, not sure of numbers but they were bigger than that, great effort though! FGAU
Was at your band parade in Glasgow, it was so well run, I really enjoyed it and quite a lot of yous came over to our 12th as well. They had a great time . 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Limavady used to have a huge band every 11th night. Called the Mad MacNamara it was an amalgamation of all the bands in the area and was always much bigger than this.
We loved Moneydig band and I knew many of the band members. I was always so excited to watch and listen to them playing with their true hearts and souls. Millrow was the band I followed in Tobermore and I watched the two bands play together in coleraine . It was spectacular.
I reckon a lot are just band members for the day, wearing a white shirt, whereas the CPB's have a crest on their backs and the name on the front. Those that are CPB should at least try and get a uniforn if it means just going down to Primark and buying the same colour trousers, the collection of jeans make them look like shabby.
weve had bigger bands than that theres us shankill protestant boys and on whiterock parade 2011 we had 25 drummers and 50 flutes and 6 bass drummers and so yeah there lyk 15 bands bigger...
+Stoney Burke And what about Big Gerry "Armalite"Adams;didn't his brother abuse someone for years and wee Gerry denied ever knowing about it.Once a lying taig,always one
The type of flutes they are playing are B flat flutes, not piccolos that are played in flute choirs etc and Orchestras. l would not class them as fifes though. Flies are played in front of the big Drums, l can't say the name of the drum on here because I pad dose not Respond to it.
Flute bands have an optimal finite size. Once it begins to get too big the back cant hear the front, cant keep time, the front cant hear the back. The problems are endless. Very difficulkt to do

l wonder what would English people think of this kind of Banding which is common around the marching season, or if they even know about the more musical melody type bands that we have that play military marches such as our director/ old comrades/ sharpshooters etc played by grade 4 melody bands plus none political none sectarian flute choirs who do concerts around the parks these type of bands are in England and Europe plus around the world as well. Do they know about this wonder. What would they think if they had knowledge of these types of bands that play music everyone can listen to regardless of class colour or religion or even take part in, where the emphasis is on musicality etc. Never here anything adopt them. Not knocking these type of 12th of July bands ether but I think it should be more spread around on videos.
Plenty of people in England know about these bands. Especially people in Liverpool. And as you said we have the military bands also. My nan used to take me to watch the Royal Tournament every year without fail. I’m no Protestant but I’m British and Unionist and we need more bands and more tunes.
I don’t see unionism (supporting the UK) in the UK as being sectarian. I’m not so with the religious stuff but I’m very much a supporter of pro-UK music. But there are some really good tunes Orange Lily’O is a great one.
