Buckingham Palace Guard's hat tip to Star Trek!

I was in London at a conference and the day after I went sightseeing. I of course watched the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace.
I couldn't believe what I heard when they started playing... :D
Do you recognize the series whose themes they're playing? It's four of them!
I did and this was quite possibly one of the best parts of my visit to London!
Sorry for the bad quality that's all my cheap photo camera is capable of.

Hearing these themes live like this must have been amazing... the band played well...just not sure how the hell anyone could just talk through this whole thing though.

[@scoobyrds]

This is epicness!! May the Queen live long and prosper! ^^

[@ForceMaximus84]

There's five, actually: TOS, DS9, Generations, Voyager and TMP/TNG.

[@Nostradormouse]

This is actually quite a good arrangement, particularly given the limitations of a military band.

[@martinpower472]

To boldly go where no Guards band has gone before.......

Mad amount of awesomeness!!

I'm just now seeing this in 2013? I must turn in my Trekkie Card.
