- Attorney General William Barr showcased one of his hidden talents when he took center stage at an event at the nation's capital Wednesday morning accompanying the Pipes & Drums of the NYPD Emerald Society in a rendition of "Scotland the Brave."
Hate the man if you, but you have to admit that he has some wicked pipes.
Where was this big dick energy when it mattered!
Sounds like what tiktokers would say about serial killers
It's a very simple tune, to be fair. He played it well, though.
Not really. Tsk tsk tsk
Shameful
Why hate him? I don’t
Why did it take over a year for me to see this?! Epic. Fantastic. My respect for our AG just skyrocketed!
Really enjoyed this surprise, he has won me over with his talent!
Playing the pipes like a boss!
Never mess wi
That's true, David. Scotland The Brave is one of the two tunes I say no piper should be let out in public without. You have to memorize the tunes, you know.
The other tune of course is Amazing Grace. The public will ALWAYS ask for one or the other.
I was in 6th grade with Billy Barr (Corpus Christi - NYC 1960) when he played the bagpipes for us - kilt outfit and all.
Luckily, Sr. Lucinda reprimanded the boys in the class who were laughing at the outfit...
He is a more masterful bagpiper in this clip than he was then.
He's got some pipes huh!!!👍
John Paul Johns : Im Scottish and And scotland still lives in America as a Tribute...
He's playing scotland the brave 🏴
As they say, hate the man, love the pipes.
Great AG and a strong wing man for law enforcement and President Trump.
...No way! I love this guy!
He's a great guy.....very brave and talented...enjoyed the video
That was actually beautiful
God bless that man!
I despise the man, but as a Scottish descendant, he has my respect. Only there will he have my respect, other than Bush Sr.'s reign. He was way better then. Why did I just take that turn?
This should be replayed when he walks out of his office for the last time.
As an honor, yes. He deserves it too because he did what was asked of him.
@@ethanweeter2732 lol
Hopefully Trump supporters send them bagpipes to his prison cell
He didn't do anything. He hid the Biden investigation and overshadowed the Mueller Report.
The man is deepstate.
@@ryananderson5202 lol moron
Dude should have entered his "hearing" with Nadler like this.
That would’ve been legendary😂
Facts
I'd pay money to see that!
Oh that would have been amazing.
Excellent
I'm British and legitimately have no idea who any of those people are, but I love the pipes, and this was a great playing of Scotland the Brave. Well Done!
Bill Barr ( the guy that went and grabbed his pipes from back stage) was the US Attorney General during the Trump administration.
NYPD festooned in Shamrocks and Green play Scotland the Brave, maybe because it’s the only tune he knows how to play.
@@errisgloshfan It's the only song he needs to know how to play. Love, a Scotsman.
@@Deilgyre well we’ll how brave in the not too distant future or maybe it’s just spin
Ok let me explain: The guy who played Pipes was Attorney General Barr in charge of Department of defense under Donald Trump administration those guys sitting in first raw chair were secretary for FBI leaders and head of FBI himself, and those in the room were leaders and secretaries of Federal Leaders from all 52 states
William Barr was a piping adjudicator in the 90s. I used to play for him regularly as a beginner kid. He was always friendly. You have to be absolutely top be an adjudicator.
No shit huh?
Adjudicator? Like a judge for bagpipes?
You can tell...he didnt miss a beat he jumped in and was perfect!
Dude! I’m totally fanboying right now!
Beautiful
The drummer in the bottom left looks like George W. Bush if he didn’t become president. Please tell me y’all see it too
Holy shit he does haha
I noticed. He definitely looks like GWB.
He looks just like him omg
He looks just like my current governor, Roy Cooper of NC
It looks a LOT like him! He's even grinning like "Nobody knows it's me!" Wow! I wonder now that you mentioned it!
The top law enforcement official of the land plays the pipes...I love it!
@@StephenKershaw1 shut up, libtard
@@StephenKershaw1 The belief that all members of any group will all act one way is bigotry in its clearest form. Congratulations, you have become what you claim to hate.
As a Scot all I can say is...love the pipes....proud!!!!
law enforcement 😆
@@StephenKershaw1 you mean like how Trump was going to be impeached , or how they want him in prison. How's that working out 😂
Dang. He really flexed on us with those bagpipes. Respect.
The anthem of the attorney general
Unknown Person online yeah I know
LOL! Like "Sorry Scotland, we're stealing this one!"
I can’t stand his politics, but this is pretty cool. Kudos.
Why do you hate America the way it was before 2000. It was like Mayberry.
Barr hates Trump. If you actually follow news. You can see that Barr never was a licker like Graham and McConnell are.
@@pondererofdumbshit2669 So you vote for a 50 year lifetime politician? Listen to yourself. 😂
@@returningfire2037 he's done more in two months than Obama did in his last four years.
@@OnYourMarkDC Care to elaborate? He doesn't even know where he is half the time.
Playing the bagpipes like a boss man should.
@Chi Sam idiot!!!!!
WOW So he AND President Trump are both Scottish! My Scottish ancestors are super proud.
Aye lass scotts we are proud.
Barr is Irish on his maternal side and Jewish on his fathers side. Very proud he honors the Irish side and he is a catholic
No..djt is dickish.
@@earljohnson50 What has religion got to do with his competency as AG.I am writing as an Irish Catholic Canadian.
@@elgaitero1 Wrong. He is not related to you.
I'm Hispanic,I want pipes played at my funeral.
There are many awesome Spanish bagpipe traditions.
Not only irish play pipes .really the bag pipes came from Arabs
@@chupacabra4897 I never knew this... pretty cool
@@DeyonSingh you can find Arabic bagpipe music . Some of it sounds pretty cool . They where also used in Asia. 😁👍🏻
@@chupacabra4897 Indeed, the pipes originated in the Middle East and spread throughout the known world. Now used mostly on the Celtic periphery. Barr is playing 'Scotland the Brave' on Scottish pipes, here. In fact, 'Barr' is a Scottish name, although it's to be found in Northern Ireland due to settlement from Scotland.
Why the hell is this my first time hearing this? This is beautiful
This man is an absolute legend. I really wish I could meet him in person
Who knew beast mode could play the bagpipes
@david kennedy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Go to hell and you will
@@jerryshepherd1645 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Actually this is one thing I like about our AG. If only he was doing the right thing as the AG.
Totes McGoats, my dude.
NYPD STRONG
Attorney General Barr that was great ,Bravo to you .
Don't have to like the guy but you can't but admit this was badass
Beautiful.
I love the bagpipes. Goosebumps every time.
Bag pipes....my FAVOURITE
I don't like what I'm hearing about him in recent news, but I give him huge respect for being able to play the pipes in front of an audience.
I am finding MUCH to like about this man! From a ScotchIrish lass.
'scotch' is whiskey.☺
Trump I too friendly with the tories in the UK. More Scots want independence because of Boris the clown
@@lindawarwick8643 much of Scotland's population was forcibly removed to North America in the tenant clearances of the mid 19th century (similarly the Irish too). Those familes that remained either supported the lairds new goals fully, or had already moved to the cities. The lairds were British UK supporters to the core, kept all the land to themselves, so the politics that evolved after 1855 and in the 20th century is quite different than Scotland before 1840 and quite different to the goals of Scots now in America.
My cousin I wish you well in your endeavors to separate from England, but of my cousins I've met, the political temperament is the polar opposite of Scottish Americans today.
@@STho205 well aware of my country's history. It s a pity your president knew more about or he would not be so friendly with Scotland haters l Nigel Farage or Boris the clown who are a total gift to the SNP in their quest for independence
@@lindawarwick8643 good luck to you and all of Alba.
Donald Trump is one of your children. Thanks Scotland.
US attorney general playing scotland the brave. Couldn't make it up🤣 brilliant
Come on! This gets better every day!
For a moment I thought of this. "I always go to work with my pipes, you never know when you might need it"
I can just see it now: "Just whose bright idea was it to deploy a piper with the SWAT deployment?!?"
Awesomeness 🎶🎶🎶
Once he starts indicting Democrats I can see the Pied Piper memes...lol.
I don't agree with many of his ideas, but I definitely agree with his playing. That is NOT an easy instrument to play.
He clearly didn't waste his youth watching screens.
You talking about window screens?
They didn’t have them....
nope. just alot of eating.
Fat nasty bastard. Bag pipes are a joke, I could never respect the culture it came from.
I wonder how you wrote this comment
If only he had the ball to stand for real justice and up hold the law for everyone and hold the politicians to the same standards just another swamp crawler
This surprised the shit out of me. The badassery never ends with this man. MAGA !
As a Scot American THAT has totally won my respect. That wasn't faked, it was spot on.
God how I love the bagpipes. "Pity the man who never the pipes or been to Scotland "
I think it is great! Maybe the rats in Washington will follow him out of town and drown in the Potomac. You go Bill Barr you are the man!
I love AG Barr! He is a great AG AND he plays the pipes!!!!
The ONLY redeeming quality Barr has is that he plays the pipes!
@@CatSueC
You have no redeeming qualities.
@@CatSueC Why do you support the Deep State?
@@JoseyWales44s I don't support the "Deep State" (whatever TF you might think that is). Why do you make ridiculous assumptions and try to pick fights on RUclips over comments that are 3 months old? Can't you just enjoy Barr's pipes?
But thanks for bringing me back for another few repeats.
I'm Jamaican and I listen to bag pipes music, that tune is Scotland the brave. I'm really surprised that the NYPD bag pipes band played it. 🇯🇲🏴🏴🇯🇲
Yer no Jamaican yer second names scottish
@@scottishfaetoi8192 loads of jamaicans have scottish surnames due to slavery and interbreeding.
Patriots prepare; for God and country.
Exactly. You go it too!.The call to battle !
"Prepare to take down the deepstate enemy".. is my hearing about this declaration of WAR on the Deep State traitorous crooks criminals and cohorts! Put it on loop...So awesome...nothing like this song on the bagpies!!!
RUclips: "Hey. Wanna hear some bagpipes?"
Me: "No, I'm goo...."
RUclips:
This is my comment on Candice Owens remarks.. RUclips always doing this. Crazy
This shows your comment when I click to comment.. Tell me if you see a different one on the main comments
Turned out ya kinda did tho right?
Eat your heart out Bill Clinton.
Really, you're not over Clinton.
Wow!) 👍
Pretty cool! First reaction was that I didn't know he was Svottush! 😃
Super cool. Only wish he put 1/100th of the effort into bringing down the deep state as he did in mastering this amazing instrument.
Hooaah! Play it US Attorney General/ Patriot William Barr. God Bless You and Yours.
AG Barr not only bagged bad guys but knows how to play the bagpipe!
May God bless and protect our Brave AG...AG Barr the Brave...a great man! Pres. Trump and AG Barr will not back down...they have Scottish blood...sterner stuff!
John Tatum what an utterly ignorant comment
@@Hutch1601 No, he was spot on accurate.
Laura Griffin idiot
@@Hutch1601 Odds are, you're not even American, so your opinion means nothing.
Scotland the Brave...love it
Sound the battle cry.
FREEDOM!!!
Yes he did!
Dear Comcast,
You see where we are going with this?
Get off on the next stop or fight harder. We have no plans to lose this battle.
-Your worst nightmare
What!?
Barr : Activated
America and Scotland have such ties spanning hundreds of years, can't wait for us to grow our relationship once Scotland becomes an independent nation again (Thank You for enjoying parts of our culture!).
I love you Mr Attorney General Barr☘️❣️☘️
Because he plays the pipes or because he is destroying the Department of Justice?
I like Barr more every day. He's a smart, articulate, no-nonsense man who doesn't cower to the leftist bullying. Thank you for your service!
@DEMOCRACY WINS Great, stay tuned, because you are going to be really happy when Dem fraud is exposed and the election goes to Trump!
@DEMOCRACY WINS Anyone with a functioning brain can see the fraud. I understand why you would have issues. Fortunately, you aren't a judge, just a Dim Loser. Have a good day
@DEMOCRACY WINS You know nothing about democracy, but you are too stupid to continue to engage. As Dad always said, "You can't fix stupid." Goodbye.
I love it!!
We have the best attorneys general, don't we folks?
Hell yeah! Awesome!
Dang. Well done. I wonder if he plays this before he leaves the house to go after some bad guys. It would put a spring in your step for sure.
Now that's a nations top cop! Damm proud of our Attorney General!
Then get ready for the conclusion of his AG moment and learn what historians will say about him and that is he is the worst and most corrupt occupant of the AG office in American History. You are now just another ridiculous follower of the don's fixer.
Sheila White he is insanely corrupt for an AG.
@@icecoldpolitics8890 No doubt about it. His view is that a president should be absolute or authoritarian in the exercise of power. Now, that fits how Donald feels about dictators. Barr should be regarded as Don's personal attorney and his "fixer". People like Donald always have to have a lawyer to mop up. the mess they make.
*top con ( but that would actually be trump
)
Nice to see him blowing something other than his career, LOL
Good on Barr, playing Scotland the Brave supported by a pseudo-Irish pipe band. However, the funniest bit about this footage was how all the guests jumped to their feet in North Korean type unison to applaud the A.T.
Who else has a Scotland The Brave playlist?
@Michael Halligan Sure is. Even states as much in the description.
These people are literally playing the Scottish Highland Bagpipes (has the 3 chambers) while in Highland dress to the tune of Scotland the brave but have the Irish Shamrock on their cloths. WTF🤦 Scottish and Irish is not the same thing!
Well played Mr. Barr
Always have been a fan of the bagpipes, the traditional Scottish music. 🎶🎵🎵🎶🎶🥁
He's got no Scottish roots, that's what annoys me. He's got Irish but no Scottish.
A great American citizen 🇺🇸
Love it...wonderful Scot bagpipes..sweet Mr. Barr
I like AG Barr!
Great job now change the subject let's start Prosecuting some of these criminals these politicians I was just rubbing the entire country but great job on the bagpipes I'm a snare drummer so I can appreciate drumming and musical organizations I played with the Long Island Sunrisers senior drum and bugle Corps six-time world champions
Love it when I see people with differences, no matter how great, come together.
I can't believe that nobody is talking about George W. Bush's twin playing the drums in the lower left hand corner at 0:40
i knew he was the real thing and now this.
William Barr
Never got the credit he deserves a great man for America 🇺🇸💯👍
NOW!! its the Democrats turn !! " BARR /BRAVE HEART "
Better than garland
That was the least enthusiastic tenor drummer I've seen.... must be a Democrat.
Even local bands smash they things like bouncy balls
I often wonder if the people in the UK and Ireland know how often the Pipes are played and enjoyed in the US. I’m in Texas and have friends of Scottish ancestry who wear their kilts to special occasions.
Now I love him even more. 🤗❣️
This song just exudes freedom to me!
@Michael Halligan it was Scotland the Brave. .lol.
It's just a song. The man is Trump's FIXER.
@@sheilawhite7044 Fixing what Ms. White.
@@william474 Like any crime boss, someone is appointed to do the dirty work. When it comes to lawlessness and destroying the judicial system, Trump isn't smart enough for that - he needs a good lawyer who can summarize an 1800 page report down to 2 pages and reach a conclusion not reached in the original (Mueller Report). Firing first rate government lawyers.
And why did I read that Barr visited the prison where Jeffrey Epstein was kept, shortly before his death. Fixing all kinds of things Mr. William - whatever King Donald wants. Michael Cohen was Trump's fixer but he is one of many Trumpsters indicted. Cohen is about to have his book released - his function is now canary.
@@sheilawhite7044 Thank you for explaining Ms. White.
I knew there was a reason I liked him!!
Yeah, he actually knows what he's doing.
He was a piper in The City of Washington Pipe Band...
@@stuartandrews4344 Dang. I'm surprised I didn't know that. What grade did he play in?
@@jonathanchambers4657 As Pointy mentioned below he was also a piping adjudicator,so a top notch piper, been playing around 60 years.
@Chi Sam on
victory song for the 2020 Trump victory- watch in faith and know the power of God!
Now that's an AG! I'm impressed. Wow, the man can play. Tough instrument to master
It's really not so bad, if you go at it systematically. The instrument repays precision, so you spend time getting your fingerings exact. That way your grace notes and doubling are crisp and clear.
Scotland the brave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Makes me proud to be an ulster Scot
Wow
Barr is talented just like the trump administration..👏👏👏👏
I am an Englishwoman and am truly astonished and utterly delighted with your performance on the bagpipes. So unexpected but greatly enjoyed and admired.
Well your English..pretty standard stuff.
@@mercian7 what lmao...
@@mercian7 you're not your
@@MG-bs5mr Well I only make statements on youtube on a Saturday night when I have had a few beers (honestly), so forgive my mistake. BTW, go f.. yourself you c..!
I wish he had stuck with the pipes instead of flirting with authoritarianism.
This is so badass.
