On the night I que with me, myself and I. I approach 1 and all with no scalping - just please someone use the ticket! NOT A CHANCE. LIKE I HAD THE POX! 12 m from the entrance I overhear a bunch of locals saying to one of their own " sorry you cant join us but we'll meet you here ..." March up to them, stand to attention, Country, Name, rank, serial number, and reason why i have 2nd best ticket in town. They take a chance, I share enjoyment of a lifetime, they in return offer a lone Kiwi some local hospitality after the show! I'm an Irish Kiwi - God Bless the Scots.
Being a proud Scot this brings back memories of living just a 10 minutes, if that from the castle as a child we heard most of the pipes anw the different regiments marching their buses
Makes this Yank proud of his Scottish heritage. All the way back to County Ayershire and the Dalrymple name. Thanks so much for the thrilling video! Edward Stair-Tennessee USA
in Denish. det er det mest imponerende jeg nogensinde har set og hørt. der er intet militær instrument der slår sækkepiber og trommer. det er bestemt det fedeste jeg nogen sinde har set.
Even English men like me get goose bumps at the sound of the pipes , l'm ex 1st Royal Anglian Regt Corp of Drums, our lads & lasses liked the flutes & Drums , as you the pipes , like all our Regt s they British am us up but , we will never forget our pipers & flute players ,& Drummers , bless them all , men & women keep our service men women safe & their family's ,
My ancestors where from scottland...my daddy would share some jack and talk about what he knew while we listened to 33 lp's of bagpipes...this is some awesome stuff...I love it !!
Greetings from Turkey! What a spectacular show! I can't imagine this music' effect on soldier in battlefield. TBH id march even into hell with those magnificent marches. What a spirit!!! SALUTE brave sons of Scotland!
My grandfather was from Glasgow and he loved the pipes. He never quite lost his accent even well into his 90s. He would have loved this I'm sure. I'm very proud of my Scottish heritage.
My Grandfather also was from Glasgow and Grandmother from Aberdeen; I was around 17 when I could finally understand what he was saying. Our Clan is Leslie. I have been a piper or trying for 62 yrs. and presently to retain our Scottish heritage and legacy, Pipe Major of the Erepa Grotto Pipes and Drums. This has been my favorite Tattoo since that day it occurred. Thank YOU for your post !
Fabulous sound, took my dad to see this which he said was 'magical' & he was ex KOSB & was GC at Edinburgh Castle for 2 years. Very powerful and a moving performance.
I always come back to listen to this video when i need reminded of how proud i am to be Scottish. The sound of the mass pipes sends shivers right through my body and makes me feel ultimate proudness.... It's like a rush ! We really are the proudest nation on earth ! Alba gu brath !!! INDEPENDENCE FOR SCOTLAND !
amen. this is one of scotland's gifts to the world, and i (non-scottish, but admirer) grateful for it! hurrah for the pipes & drums, and thanks for scotland!
Absolutely excellent! I had the honour to meet the Black Watch when I was in the German Air Force at Ramstein Airbase in 1983. Can you imagine what fun it was if a Scot tries to learn a German how to play the bagpipe? At first the loughter was on scottish side, at least on both... Something I never forgot.I´m proud that I had this experiance and that I´ve met these extraordinary soldiers.
Loved this!! I wish I would have had the honor to hear them in person when I went to Scotland...Beautiful place it is I will say that ... Also, Loved the thistle formation...I have gotten a tattoo of the Scottish Thistle because it is such a beautiful flower and it has a great story behind it too :)
+Missy Muffet Thank you for wonderful lovely comments about my country hearing the bagpipes gives me goosebumps and think you getting a thistle tattoo is fantasic where about did you come to scotland from if you dont mind me asking
I'm an American, and I say Thank God for the Scots! What would we do without them? I have Scottish blood, and I'm so proud of it. What's not to be proud of?
always loved the bagpipes, even i am a Yank. they seem so peaceful and powerful at the same time. And wow all those famous regiments... me being a military history lover i know. right on!!!!
What a tremendous boost to morale it must have been for the brave souls who landed on the beaches on D-Day; to hear the piper playing behind them! Lest we forget!
i am not british. i am from germany but not even german. my conviction....it is so nice that people are diffrent. every culture has great things to offer. the bagpipe sound gives me the heebie jeebies. great great music...great part of the culture. very nice! be proud folks....i know u are! ;)
@vanth77 I'm not even from Gaelic or Celtic descent, at least not as far as I know. But every time I hear so many bagpipes, I just feel the same way as you. This kind o' tune is soo great for hand-to-hand fighting scene of WW1, WW2, and so on. LONG LIVE BRITAIN !! LONG LIVE SCOTLAAAAAAAND !!
Music reflecting strength and essence of life itself ! High time, these people stopped dying for Rothschilds ! And most of the time against Christian fellows !
My wife and I have just returned home after attending the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo which celebrated its 60th year this year and it was well worth going,we were lucky to have seats facing the castle and had a perfect view.It was a wonderful experience and can highly recommend it.Massed pipes and drums, you cant beat them although I think the Royal Marine Band comes a very close second.
Strange that so many comments posted here have little or nothing to do with the wonderful display of these excellent bandsmen. Great post. Love the "Thistle" formation. Thanks for sharing.
The Moment i hear the Pipes, every single Inch of my Skin gets Goosebumps . This is so great ! Im from Germany, but i feel like i had a Life before this 1 and it must have been in Scottland. This Music touches me really deep inside, every single Time i hear it .
Vojvodkinja, the guy is from the Gurkha rifle regiment of the British army. The men come from Nepal in the far-east, they volunteer and serve a minimum of 15 years in the army. The Gurkha regiments date back to 1814 when the British signed a treaty with the Nepalese tribes and the two became allies. These guys are famous for their kukri fighting knives and a reputation as fierce fighters. Their motto translates as "Better to die fighting, than live as a coward". Hope that helps.
Mendaxer have you ever seen so many men "walk" with such absolute precision???? Look down the ranks, staright as a die! look at the tassles on the pipes, everyone swinging back and forth at the same time like clockwork, each and every sporran left to right all at the same time, every tennor drum club being swirled at thesame time, thats not walking you fool, that is pure pipe band precision!
It is good that they explain who are involved in the procession...I love the pipers and it is good to see all regiments involved from both the UK and NZ.. I love watching this on TV as it is a little too far and too expensive for me to go to Edinburgh but one day I will get there..Tradition is Tradition no matter what country you come from. I'm from European heritage and this is just awesome...
No wonder the world is so screwed up. Instead of enjoying a beautiful piece of music and appreciating a fantastic tradition. Not to mention it makes one reflect on the brave people that marched into battle with this music so that we could enjoy freedom. People are name calling, getting into politics. Haters can find anything to Hate about, God bless your little hearts

We used to have Tattoos here in Ontario, Canada at the CNE in Toronto. Why oh why can't they come back. This is simply majestic and soul-stirring.

I am not Scottish but have recently found out that my maternal great-grand parents were from Edinburgh and am chuffed to bits! :D
I'm an American, and I say Thank God for the Scots! What would we do without them? I have Scottish blood, and I'm so proud of it. What's not to be proud of?
And the scottish voice of the late Tom Fleming who commentated on numerous Edinburgh Tattoos. You are greatly missed.
This is ART!
I am now Dutch but in my past Life I was a Scot!
I Salute you all brothers.

Wow! I have loved the sound of bagpipes all my life; what a thrill! Would love one day to be there when they do this!
A long and impressive Scottish tradition... magnificent display.
Excelent. Vocea de comentariu este la fel de frumoasa ca si spectacolul... Sir Sean Connery...
Something else, too… they can fight.
First tune is called 'Hot Punch' then goes into 'Bonnie Dundee' I'm sure.
Fantastico!!!!!! Forza bella Scozia!!!
@vanth77
I'm not even from Gaelic or Celtic descent, at least not as far as I know.
But every time I hear so many bagpipes, I just feel the same way as you. This kind o' tune is soo great for hand-to-hand fighting scene of WW1, WW2, and so on.
LONG LIVE BRITAIN !!
LONG LIVE SCOTLAAAAAAAND !!
Music reflecting strength and essence of life itself !
High time, these people stopped dying for Rothschilds !
And most of the time against Christian fellows !
I wish the commentator would BE QUIET.
Comic Book Guy You don’t tell Tom Fleming to be quiet, he is the voice of the Edinburgh tattoo.
Amazing!
Best wishes and greetings to Scottish people from Armenia.
The 42nd royal highlanders "Blackwatch" Long live forever!
Q: What does a Scotsman say to someone who says "Nice skirt"?
A: Nice bloody nose!
So much memories I was there that year it was my 4th tattoo miss you papa I shared them all with you
why don't you just listen and watch? The finest music in the world. Scot or not, you should be proud!
My wife and I have just returned home after attending the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo which celebrated its 60th year this year and it was well worth going,we were lucky to have seats facing the castle and had a perfect view.It was a wonderful experience and can highly recommend it.Massed pipes and drums, you cant beat them although I think the Royal Marine Band comes a very close second.
Love it!!! This is music to my ears speaking from Manitoba Canada!!
Strange that so many comments posted here have little or nothing to do with the wonderful display of these excellent bandsmen.
Great post. Love the "Thistle" formation. Thanks for sharing.
Edinburgh has and always will have the best military tattoo anywhere and everywhere. Alba Gu Brath!
THis was an Awesome Presentation; i was there in person when stationed in London, UK back in 1990 to 1992
the best video I've seen in all ages awesome
I had the opportunity to watch live one of the Military Tattoo. Unforgettable moment.
Listen to those drums when they do the tune round abound!!!!! so powerful!!!
Love the first song. Would love to have it played at my funeral.
That little Ghurka pipe major is dwarfed by the others! Fantastic video, thanks for adding.
i would love to see this, must be mind blowing, got to love the constant low end sounds of the pips
I got to see this years tattoo.The whole spectacle is hard to beat, what a great show.
I live right next to Edinburgh Castle, I get to listen to this every night during the Tattoo :3
Thumbs up, this is what you call good music
I love the Ediburgh Military Tattoo :) Its really enjoyable, I watch it every year. The skill of these guys are amazing, kudos to them

The Moment i hear the Pipes, every single Inch of my Skin gets Goosebumps .
This is so great !

Bellissima musica, e uno scenario altrettanto bello!

This is absolutely fantastic, a band of brothers :)
It simply does not get any better than this display - Thank you for sharing...
i love bagpipes so much and also the drums well done on this event.

He been to one of those the sound of the massed band make me proud to be Scottish
Kudos to you all, fantastic!
It is called the Black Bear it is a tune for return to barracks, which is why many Scottish military tattoos end with it.
Ben ik het helemaal mee eens. Heb de show van 2009 gezien. Wat een belevenis.
Well done Davin Stoddard! A perfect perfect video.
Wow how good was this...gave me goose bumps and made me feel very proud. Total respect to our Armed Forces that was awesome.
as an x guardsman and scot i salute your applause for the spit and polish,spent years perfecting it and can still do it today its an art
thats perfection..
