There is nothing, nothING, NOTHING more thrilling than marching Scottish Pipe Bands. NOTHING, nothING, nothing... Thanks for this. Alba Abú...From Ireland.

I agree 1000%! I LOVE BAGPIPES!!!!

[@patriley9449]

Me too !

[@brendadrew834]

Amen!!

[@kp8381]

Totally agree. Greetings from Texas

[@harrybuik9763]

You can see queen Victoria waiting for her body guard coming up the drive way with the dukes pipe band at the head it's just as it was over 150years a go so nice ❤❤

[@mrsoz8661]

Many thanks for this. Listening to bagpipes always makes me happy or at least the Scottish half of me. Cheers from Australia. “There is no duty we so much underrate as the duty of being happy. By being happy we sow anonymous benefits upon the world.” ― Robert Louis Stevenson

[@mrsoz8661]

@Evan Hodge You are most welcome. Take care and enjoy your Northern Hemisphere warm weather.

[@hoosieryank6731]

Did they take a cannon in battle and that's why they're pulling one behind them?

[@notbraindead7298]

Thanks for the RLS quote, it's worthy advice. Cheers from the US and God bless you.

[@andrewheaney6858]

Love the video and I’m also in awe of the lush green backdrop of my beautiful Scottish homeland

[@brendadrew834]

Beautiful! Brings out my wee bit of Scottish heritage! Everytime I see and hear bagpipes I feel a real stirring in my soul! Thank you~

[@nunyabiznez6381]

I only recently learned through a DNA test that I am about 1/3 Scottish. I have been a genealogist for over 40 years and nothing in any of the trees I've done suggested that at all so it was a complete shock. But now I know why I've always felt a certain tingle in my spine when I see and hear the likes of this.

Well filmed Neil.....You had your vantage point & stuck with it, good for you. Came out really well.

[@kathryngrainger6207]

Kathryn appreciates your kind comment! 😁 Neil was keeping the dog amused at that point...

Really well spaced. A lot of regiments would not have pulled this off so well. Greatly filmed Neil

Thanks for sharing, Neil. Good to see Gary West in his new pipe major's rôle (Gary is the presenter on BBC's Radio Scotland's weekly piping programme, "Pipeline").

[@stablefairy9437]

great video. I have to say that these men who are volunteers, marched so much better than a parade of the blues and royals I saw recently!!!

[@stevetaylor7403]

Blues and Royals marching? Are you sure? They are part of the Household Cavalry. They ride horses or drive tanks/scout cars. Or did you see them marching a few paces while changing the guard at Horse Guards Parade? Not easy marching in thigh-high stiff leather boots.

[@erichalfbee503]

Blame the horses, teh Blues and Royals are mounted.

[@stevetaylor7403]

@@daviddou1408 : Short distances as at the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral and at purely ceremonial occasions. Is that what you meant? If you watch YT ‘Changing of the Guard’ at Whitehall you will see how stiff legged they are in their boots. Operationally, they are in scout cars/light tanks.

[@stevetaylor7403]

@@daviddou1408 : I said, they are not an infantry regiment, they are recce/armoured. They may perform ceremonial duties on foot, such as the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral, Changing of the Guard at Whitehall, taking post for visits of visiting dignitaries. If you consider this to be contradicting myself then please feel free to do so.

[@a.b.vandergarde2937]

Who can help...what is the name of the first part they're playing? Is it called the 'Garb of old Gaul' or 'March of Tumbledown mountain'? Hope that I have written the namens correctly. Thanks in advance! Knw

[@NeilClark-FalkirkPiping]

Hi there, you're right with the first. Garb of Old Gaul

[@a.b.vandergarde2937]

@@NeilClark-FalkirkPiping Thanks a lot! Maybe I'm mistaking but Scots Guards (YT, in Glasgow) playing Tumbledown Mountain and for me it sounds the same. Are they the same? What's the difference? Or are these songs played directly after each other? (and I can't hear when one stops and another starts?) Thanks again!

[@NeilClark-FalkirkPiping]

No probs... The Crags of T is a completely different tune.. I'm wondering if its been misnamed in a YT vid somewhere. Going through both in my head just now, I can't really call them similar.

[@a.b.vandergarde2937]

@@NeilClark-FalkirkPiping Thanks for your reaction!

[@a.b.vandergarde2937]

@@NeilClark-FalkirkPiping One last time :-) I'm an enthusiastic listener of pipes and drums music. This is the video of the Scots Guards I mentioned. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIfbk2WajaiLirs Based on your reaction, I listened the music again and for so far I can hear the songs Garb of Old Gaul' and Crags of Tumbledown Mountain are combined. For example, at 2.55 I can hear a transition. Am I right? Maybe this is why I thought the both song are the same.

[@Thebradycarroll]

Can anyone tell me what the first song they're playing is called?
