It's striking how London's cavernous train stations produce such crisp, clean images and sound for vids like this one. A real pleasure to see and hear the Band of the Scots Guards performing in this venue. If poppy sales related to band quality, the Royal British Legion should have sold out of their boutonnieres at Victoria Station. A delightful light music concert. Thanks MBE.

I would agree, it’s amazing how such unusual venues provide great a place for a military band concert! I’m glad you enjoyed always, thank you!!

A pleasant and unexpected reward for today's commuters at Victoria Station ? An excellent performance today and thank goodness "Military Bands Everywhere" were there to capture it.

Concert n.4! Another excellent performance, the Scottish Band, beautiful music, very good sound and very beautiful London's Stations. A very busy day for all the Bands, a great job for you. If all the Bands put on their concert, I still miss the Irish and Coldstreamers🤔 Thank you very much MBE for filming and sharing this magnificent initiative❤

54:18 The march "When The Guards Are On Parade" has lyrics written by Leslie Sarony. There's a lilting thrum of the rolling drum, As it echoes thro' the air, There's a blaze of red, With an even tread, And an instrumental blare, There's a flash and a glint of steel, As orders are obeyed, When the Guards... are on parade. When the Guards are on parade, In their uniforms arrayed, "What the Blankerty Blank" says the Sergeant Do you think you're in? It's not the Boys' Brigade" When the Guards are on parade, And the band is being played, Bayonets are flashing The Sergeant's teeth are gnashing When the guards are on parade. The band only played the first strain of the march. The lyrics of the second strain continue: "Left! Left!" Hark to the tramp of the feet, List' to the beating if the drum Look! Look! Look at the crowd in the street Waving and shouting, "Here they come!" "Guards Halt!" Never a one with a fault, See how they stand, As stiff as starch, "Parade Shun! Slope Arms! By the right quick march!

[@MilitaryBandsEverywhere]

Thanks for providing the lyrics. Sadly the song is not sung as much as it ought to be!!

[@emstirling-is4nu]

I agree.@@MilitaryBandsEverywhere

[@IvanGideon-x7n]

They were “proper” on it!!!

[@abc.972]

I wasn’t born in to a country that ascribed to mediocrity but I live in one now. May this example of non mediocrity show that the spirit lives on.

[@johnbutler7188]

Hi there, can you recommend a site that lists military band performances/concerts, please?

[@emstirling-is4nu]

I was told to look up the Regiment as they post on-line via their website.
