    The United States Marines may have the best Silent Drill Team Platoon and Marines may be the best at D&C, but the Royal Marines have the best singers and musicians. Period.
    That guitar player was awesome. You could tell he wanted to jam like a real rock star but he tried his best to maintain his military bearing. LOL. Well done., mates!

    So great to see this from a military band. I was in the USMC band (1st Mar Div, not the president's own) in the 80s and we never played anything other than marches. A few people tried to start a "rock" band, and the commanding officer would get mad because the practices were "too loud". The vast majority of people in the band haven't touched an instrument since they got out (including me) because music became a chore.

    The setting: the “No Man’s Land” of some future conflict. HM Royal Marines on one side. An enemy of the empire on the other.
    The band strikes up “The Final Countdown“.
    Enemy combatants be like, “I did not sign up to go against a force like this!” as they flee like cockroaches when the lights go on.

    Don't let the 173rd AB patch fool you. I use that to honor my fathers Vietnam combat unit patch. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps in the late 80's and had the opportunity to watch the Marine Corps Band play and 2 MARDIV band play, not just marching performances. I spent 15 of my 18 childhood years as an Air Force brat, 11 of those living in West Germany and regularly was able to see Air Force and Army bands put on concerts as well as marching band performances. You, my fellow Marines from across the Big Pond put on a killer show. The only, recent, performances I have seen that are on par is from the Danish National Symphony Orchestra... Amazing work, amazing sound...
