And , piper's heritage(s) extend all over the world ; wherever men have watched over their flocks , they've invented the flutes , the harps & the pipes out of the materials the flock provided , seems somehow intrinsiciy 'in tune with nature' that the animals they watched over were comforted by instruments their fellows provided ! ( The exact wordage escapes me at the moment , my mental drawers are in disarray ! )

600 pipers were wounded, 500 bagpipe players died while rallying the troops into battle. They received an extra penny a day to play their pipes. For the most part, the bagpipes skirled out the regimental tunes to get the men moving, tunes such as Highland Laddie, Bluebonnets Over the Border, and the Minstrel Boy. You can’t have been round the battlefields in the Somme and not shed a tear listening to this.

Playing the pipes at one time was a sign of defiance towards the English who persecuted and wanted to subdue the Scots. No different then taking a knee nowadays. You have to remember that Black folks have only really been free in this country for about 50 years. All the way up into the mid 80's some black communities lived in terror of groups like the KKK and such groups where often made up of local and state officials. More then any other threat to our freedom The US federal government is the biggest threat against freedom in America. My National pride runs thick, thats why i don't nor will i ever support the Federal government in the form that we know it as today. The federal government has a track record of of doing evil and heinous things not only to foreigners but to its own soldiers and us citizens. My National Pride is strictly reserved for the volunteer soldier and the workers and pioneers that made this country great. All most all Elected officials are complete trash.

bob boyd To Bob, thank you for that wonderful comment. Its nice to hear an American call it Scottish when that's exactly what it is. I have expressed my disdain at some Americans for calling it British when it is anything but.. This is Scots pipe music as played by Scots men... The British army has Scottish, Welsh and English regiments within its ranks but they are never called British except when fighting as a single unit.. Kudos to you Bob I bet you will enlighten your fellow countrymen on the matter...

As a teenager I was so privileged to be a part of The Black Watch drum and bugle corps from Auburn WA. It was an amazing experience that I will carry forever. The dedication, discipline and countless hours of rehearsal are returned in the sense of pride you feel being part of an amazing collaboration and experienced something rare enough that you take with you for a lifetime. Go get'em ladies from Hell!

I grew up in an area of Detroit, Michigan known as historic Corktown. There a lot of history there. From the early settlers in Detroit. I recall St. Patrick's Day and the wonderful bagpipers! My dad, a WW11 vet, had a great send off. Bagpipers were in attendance, along with a 21 gun salute. The Army covered his coffin with our American flag, and presented it to my mother.

Scotland has its history but modern day cities owe a lot to those who brought it about ages ago. Even the "anthem" of Scotland invokes memories of a day when a local warlord kicked out the UK army.

I am a Hong Konger who still crave for/miss such gorgeous bagpipe shows badly!!! It was always part of the military parades for the Queen's Birthday in April every year when the weather in HK was quite hot!!! It always boggles me how they could stand such intense heat in their thick costumes!!! Besides this and above all, I miss the superb British governance before the switch of sovereignty back in 1997!!!

Hk Lau, I am American. It is currently fashionable in my country for Liberals to decry "colonial powers" of all stripes. I, for one, do not hold with that fashion. Without glossing over the offenses most colonial powers, including the British, committed, I sincerely believe much of the world was a safer, more humane and just civilization for subjects in many of the former colonies administered by the British.

The Bagpipe man who played for my Mom & Dad's funeral happened to be black and was an excellent player ! Knowing the history of the 'Black Irish' , and we both joking about , & asked him since there was the Black Irish if he wasn't a Black Scotsman ! We had a good laugh . That was in 2010 , at the Riverside Calif. Arlignton Miltary Memorial site , across the highway from the USAF's March Field .
