Its a personal preference just as most anything. People have their opinion. Just because its different doesn't make it wrong or right. I personally like pipes.
When people say that they are proud of their heritage, it should be because of things of beauty like this. Things that should be shared with the world.
@@Jimmythefish577 I seen Alastair Fraser playing his violin in the small town where I live in Michigan does that make up for my mistake on the Scots with one T band ? O please for give me 🇺🇸
I have no connection - at least none that I know of - to beautiful Scotland, England, Ireland etc etc. Still I'm sitting here (in Sweden) tapping my feet and fingers against everything available around me, feeling the wild happiness these guys are giving me right now! I love them! Period! 🤗🤗 And who knows - maybe they stir up the Viking blood in me?? 💖😂
You’re probably not as disconnected as you think. There was a huge migration from mostly Norway to Scotland in what is commonly referred to as the Viking period. Most of the west and north of scotland was under the control of vikings for hundreds of years, so Scots today have a lot of Viking blood. I’m Scottish and my family name is Tunstall, which is originally Norse.
@@davidcolintunstall6048 Thank you!👍 Gosh........well then, let's hope I have some scotish blood in me...! 🤗 I am half norwegian, half swedish - so, who knows what my Viking ancestors from Sweden and Norway was up to back then? Maybe there's some scotish blood in me, after all? Hope so.....Happy New Year to you, David! And thank you for your nice comment! 😊
My ancestors came here to America from Scotland .i love the culture the musjc the history. It is in my heart and soul. I wouldn't want to be anyone else.❤
Scotland has no particular claim to pipes or drums. Drums are about 250,000 years old and pipes have a far older heritage in european countries....and ofc Cumbria and Ireland. So while scottish nationalism has wrapped itself in plaid and bagpipes it is not really novel or uniquely scottish, beyond the particular clan based cloth patterns, which are pretty uniquely scottish. Although on further consideration - what is scottish? Pictish? Norwegian? Celtic? Scotland is no less a mongrel race than English. All Scottish nationalists seem to have completely in common is a centuries old persecution complex, even after Scotland's royal family took over England!
I don't have any Scots blood that I know of, but the pipes have called to me since I was a toddler, and first heard them on a record at my Aunt Nancy's. I made her play it for me every time we went to visit. And any parade that doesn't have a pure band, IMHO, is not worthy of the name.
I don't have Scottish bone in my body, but i will always be grateful to the men of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders with whom Dad was billetted early in 1944 when he was a green 22 yr old working on PLUTO, testing it across the Firth of Forth. They treated him as one of them, despite his southern English accent standing out a mile when they took him out for a night in Edinburgh. Thanks to them, I'm here to tell the story.
Im an old school raver, used to party and take ecstasy to get the same feeling that these men give me from their pipes and drums and drug free!!! God bless the celtic spirit
not sure about that lol they look like they lived a hard lifestyle personally - the two older ones anyway and both have arms full of tats to tell their tales just saying I know musicians most dont go unscathed
Glad people are keeping these traditions and styles alive... This really connects me to my heritage! Something(s) in my blood resonates with these tones and rhythms.
Loved it people do not realize how hard it is to play the bag pipes it takes superman breaths and lung capacity. Percussion is all about timing and stamina. Awesome job

When I was in infants school every year we would have a school fete and the Scottish bagpipes band would march the children in fancy dress, including me into the school field. As soon as the pipes started playing I felt the music go into my heart and I cried every time through infants and junior schools. The teachers never understood it and neither did I at the time, it was just a rush of overwhelming emotion, that was over 40 years ago!. I was in my 2O’s when I found out that my ancestors are Scottish. Your ancestors are always with you and I am proud of my Scottish history and name Barber. I have yet to visit Scotland, I know I will visit one day. Thank you for this uplifting music 🙏🏻🙂
I'm more Scottish than Irish but something about the bagpipes make me feel like I'm home with my people ❤❤❤❤ and I'm in America and never left but i feel like I'm in Scotland amongst my clan ❤❤

@but why terrific you are negatively judging with no evidence other than your OWN cynical nature (which tells us about you by the way not her). Someone you don't know and has done no harm to you. What a great POS, you are whether you are right or wrong!!
@@vladdrakul7851 yeah but at the same time people who are actual tribe members do not call themselves Native American Indian, usually they call themselves by the tribe they belong to. This person is more than likely a white lady that has some indigenous heritage based on the description used.
@@davidarbogast37 USUALLY perhaps but not ALWAYS.. If something happens 10% of the time vs 90% that means even if it is 10 times more likely (as in using 'Native Americans' as the term) it also means that one in ten WILL happen as well. I myself was accused for using 'UC Berkeley' in an online statement (I was born and raised in the UK, NOT California) and without any evidence was accused of lying because 'Californians don't speak of it that way.'. You and others are guessing and it means nothing. Maybe it is what you GUESS maybe it is a Native American woman talking generally and using the colloquial expression 'Indians' to be more understandable to others. Who knows? Why not just address the points made by this person in service to the discussion instead of avoiding what matters and playing moralizing 'gotcha' based on nothing but guesses. It is one thing with Warren as she grabs for power with proven lies and quite another here. We already live in an age of fear, suspicions and BS why add to this!
@@davidarbogast37 Initially all our Native people were called Amerindian. In Canada,my country they are called First Nations as that is exactly what they were and are. Been in Canada for many thousands of years.

Forgiven! ❤️
I loved Edinburgh when I visited. Great little town.
I don't understand what people have against the pipes, I think they're magnificent especially when played like this.
Could say the same of our people.
Disliking them is the "cool" thing.
I guess I'm not cool!
I had a neighbor growing up who played his pipes and it was such a joy to hear. I've always loved them ❤
Amazing Grace on the pipes. Always gets me 😪

I grew up in the ghetto Indy a neighbor would come out and play his bagpipes at sunset🧡

Love this music ❤
Same with me... I'm American, of direct Scottish descent though, must go back... it's a bucket list item for me. 🎉
Pipes are like fruit candy. When you’re young, you don’t want to heat it. As you mature, you realize the beauty and heart and passion of the pipes
I have to come back and watch these again and again. It stirs a happy feeling in me.
