@@raymundoypatricia7226 Amazed my photo is still in use. I did think of coming down to Blackpool for the Airshow this weekend, should be a good do! Congrats on 80!

[@emstirling-is4nu]

Tks Jim...another great video. Wonderful to see some familiar faces in the band, along with some new one too. Well done boys/girls. Kudoos to the Vets...shows they still have the swagger. Lest we Forget.

[@JimRamsayJWR]

The Band of The Royal Regiment of Scotland has a fair turnover of members for sure!

[@ianlawrie919]

Awesome! 👏👍👌

[@DizzyVizion]

I seen your mate Pedro walking through Fort William a couple of weeks ago

[@JimRamsayJWR]

LOL, you should have spoken to him!

[@emstirling-is4nu]

Jim...I may be mistaken, but...front row, r-l young lady...I am sure I saw her in one of the Pipe Bands last year playing the pipes.

[@tommywilliams3100]

Least we had good weather good company see u all in Nov

[@JimRamsayJWR]

My Birthday!

[@DPG214]

Magnificent! Thanks for sharing. But, no pipers?

[@JimRamsayJWR]

Got to say ... a major disappointment! RRSMB are great but in previous years at least we had two pipe bands too. Cutbacks?

[@DPG214]

@@JimRamsayJWR Seriously, how can it even be remotely Scottish without pipers?

[@clivehughes2179]

thank goodness

[@JimRamsayJWR]

@@DPG214 THAT is a very very good point!

[@emstirling-is4nu]

Could be on deployment.

[@funkychunkgaming9738]

How come this is taking place a week early? Armed Forces Day 2024 is Saturday 29th of June

[@jonathanmccool2871]

Would anyone know the name of the tune that the band is playing? I am in the US and I don’t know it.

[@GriffithsFfestiniog]

The March is Arromanches (Marsch) Albert E. Kelly / Arr. Gosling Mol

[@jonathanmccool2871]

@@GriffithsFfestiniog Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

[@edinburgh_militaryaction_Max]

Sorry forgot to ask, does anyone know the next up and coming few parades in Edinburgh? Or even performances from Pipes and Drums etc.

[@JimRamsayJWR]

Yes, 1-4th July Holyrood Guard Changes, probably 8.15am like last month. King arrives and ceremony of the keys is good, not sure of date but soon. The election has had a knock on effect.

[@JimRamsayJWR]

And 10am at the castle too for those guard changes (esplanade so free)

[@edinburgh_militaryaction_Max]

@@JimRamsayJWR Perfect thank you, and Changing of the Castle guard is that every morning?

[@JimRamsayJWR]

@@edinburgh_militaryaction_Max Has been in the past, usually 8:15am Holyrood and 10:00am Edinburgh castle. I know 2 SCOTS Pipes, Drums & Bugles are doing Holyrood

[@edinburgh_militaryaction_Max]
