    Bloody hell, at 6:16 back in the Noughties I was 30 yards further in front, listening to a cavalryman explain to a horse-riding lady about the Army's arrangements for leasing horses from civilians. As a big fat civilian marshmallow I find that regimental pipes and drums like this bring on the red mist and a desire to take on the enemy with a bayonet!

    Imagine you are snug in defenence in the 19th century. And you start to hear the bag pipes, slowly at first. And they keep their slow advance until the sound is LOUD! I tell you i would not have wanted to wash my breeches after that!

    The Black Bear March is the traditional call back to barracks for all soldiers off base for the night. It is the piper’s equivalent of the Last Post, and hopefully it will be played at my own funeral after Highland Cathedral.

      @dannystreather6205 2 года назад

      It is indeed the "Return to barracks" tune, but actually "Flowers of the Forest" (Traditionally played by the lone piper on the battlements) is the piper equivalent of the Last Post. And what we hear on this clip is actually a medley, a mix of "Scotland the Brave" and "The Black Bear", which, again traditionally is played by the band of the pipes and drums as they (always the last to leave) leave the arena and set off down Castle Hill. What a shame the clip of the magnificent moment the pipes and drums come down Castle Hill is spoiled by some boorish comments by nearby spectators

      The whole Edinburgh atmosphere, throughout the August fringe festival, is almost as magical as an evening performance at the tattoo.
      Only problems, though, are the ridiculously high accommodation charges.
      Throughout August, the Travel lodge in Central Edinburgh, is over £200 a night, without breakfast, and it doesn't matter when you book, accommodation during the tattoo is frightfully expensive.
      Best answer, is to use a coaching tour, where accommodation, food and hard to obtain tattoo tickets are included.
