Cenotaph 2018 Massed Bands

The First 2.5 minutes of two Guards’Bands arriving at the Cenotaph are from the BBC Red Button coverage which was not shown on the main BBC 1 channel due to them cutting away to interviews/archive film etc. Remaining approx 5 minutes of footage is from the main BBC 1 HD programme.

Drummy at 0:55 is superb. Such fluid and smooth movements. Reminds me of my dad. Top notch! :)

A fine, sincere performance of sturdy old songs. Fitting to the occasion...

I swear the DM at :30 looks left and says F--k. Looks like something was wrong? Still this is awesome, I wish the US had scruff like this.

joe payne if he did, and something was wrong, the clever bit is, none of us know what it was!

Here you go, Joe. I believe these events happen every Friday evening in the summer. ( We do not have as many big hats, we are running low on bears.)

Thank you. I knew about those and as always only the marines can pull it off. Also love the old guard fife and drum.
