When I was a wee child of 2 or 3 we had a piper living over the back fence 2 or 3 doors up and when he practiced the wind would take it away like a vibrato. It was always Haunting me. I loved it. Would ask my Mother to let me sit on the back step to listen. Love the pipes.

Unfortunately I had a tape of bagpipe and marching music that I absolutely adored as a kid and I would play it over and over. To this day I still love the pipes and my mom still hates them.
I don't know how many times I've seen this, but it's always so much fun! Everyone is clearly having the time of their life up there and it's just great!
As an Englishman I have always been jealous of the Scots, because I think the whole wearing kilts and playing the bagpipes thing is really cool. And when I was younger I had legs that looked good in a kilt - I wore one for a while when I was a apunk in the early 80s.
Bagpipes rock. I had the privilege of seeing Nightwish a while back. For those who don't know them, they're an epic symphonic metal band. Recently they got a new member whose sole job is to handle all the folk instruments. He'd play bagpipes, wooden flutes, mandolins, you name it. It was so awesome hearing his stuff mixed in with the awesome orchestral tracks and brutal guitar work.
Agreed! I think the original purpose of the pipes was to put fear in the enemy. Braveheart. Check out "Maka" videos if you'd like to see some others you'd want having your back !
Bagpipes are unpopular among instrumentalists because they're so darn _demanding_ to play. They've been described as the instrumental equivalent of a professional marching band. The fitness required to play them is insane.
There actually are quite a few. I go to dunedin high school in dunedin florida, and I play the pipes in our marching band, and we also have a grade 4 competition pipe band, we compete around florida 3 or 4 times yearly. I think there are 2 other high school bands with bagpipes in Florida as well, but I don't really know too much about them.
@@layna-heyhey Kinda, depending the teacher tolds you to run a bit then pipe rinse and repeat and you get more lung capacity as well strenght to blow it without getting out of breath.
Love those 😍💕 Piper's , We go too the Highland Games every year , love those 😍💕 kilts too , made one for my 4 year old granddaughter and my self , Black Watch , she loves Jamie Fraser too , keep those pipes and drums playing, God bless Scotland . 😘✌️
I just had an operation on my gastrocnemius (calf) muscle, and it makes me notice how beautifully the kilt shows off the wearer's calf muscles. Great performance!
Hello from America. Boring? Nev-er ! This was great. I hired pipers for a party a few years ago and right after "Scotland the Brave" they launched into "Iron Man" ! What a day! Great vid. Thank you !
MJ West If you like rock music too, I guess you would enjoy the German medieval music scene ^^ just look up the band 'Saltatio Mortis', they are great :) I hope you like them
I have no idea why this was in my suggested videos as I have never once looked up or watched anything rock n roll or bagpipes related. Not entirely disappointed though.
i played from the age of 10.here in the scottish highlands it is part of life and i always used to play contemporary music as anything sounds good on the pipes.i work abroad a lot and when i hear the skirl of the pipes it almost brings a tear to my eye with pride
There are Greek dual pipes (spacing on the name), the hurdy gurdy, and any woodwind player who is familiar with overtones and harmonics or singing while playing. Sax or clarinet is the most likely. Brass is arguable, but you'd likely never hear it over the horn. Add double reeds playing their reeds, dual ocarinas, dual recorders, dual trumpets. But yes, the bagpipes are by far the most famous wind instrument with a drone.
666 has nothing to do with the devil. Its meaning goes way back. Bible humpers only believe it is evil because of that stupid movie The Omen. Hollywood is to blame.
Actually, Christians were misunderstanding the significance of 666 long before The Omen came out. (Confession: I've never seen that particular movie.) The number appears in the book of Revelation, and is the number of The Beast, which has uniformly been considered to be evil. Revelation was written around AD 100, centuries before Hollywood.
@@AJEDDY97 give it a shot. perhaps its the warm tone of the bagpipe, perhaps its the soft pitch of a reasonable octave range. maybe its the balanced volume, or how clean the sound is, and how hygenically clean the easy maintenence of them are. or maybe its the fact that its none of those things, so you can shove a bagpipe up your ass. they are shitty pieces of trash. like the people who play them.
@@robmiester it's pretty simple: Scots aren't any of those things, but they just don't give a shit about being any of them, so why should their instruments?
Growing up in Nova Scotia (New Scotland, to those who's Latin is rusty) and attending Highland dance competitions. Bagpipes stir the soul. Amazing Grace on the pipes will make you cry, but Scotland the Brave, that one will have you sharpening your sword and slipping on your targe, ready for battle.
Love these pipes! And the pipers, of course. Just something about a man in a kilt. Back in my high school pipe band, there were a couple of guys, a piper and a drummer, who would warmup by ripping into 'Wipeout'. Guess I've always loved rockin' pipes. We'll done, lads!
Hey you should hear the bagpipes at night when going to bed. All the clan 1 member in full colors and dress. Play their clans song . wow it reverberates thru the hills and it stirs your heart. Yep a military man navy and was in Scotland for a year. Retired now and will never forget it.

I love the bagpipes, they where constantly played around me as a child and I fell in love with the sound.
Bagpipes give you the opportunity to wear a skirt and be manly at the same time, that's kickass
It's.A.KILT!
The last man that called that a skirt got kilt for it!
Oh please. AC/DC used bagpipes way back when. It's a long way, etc. Bagpipes have always turned me on.
I just had an operation on my gastrocnemius (calf) muscle, and it makes me notice how beautifully the kilt shows off the wearer's calf muscles. Great performance!
WHOA! That's a wild rendition of "You Light up my Life"!

Bagpipes are awesome in general, but this is EPIC!!!!!
You are clearly deaf!

rick moore totally EPIC
Yeah, right! I went to the doctors and he said my ears are in tip-top shape! It's my brother that is deaf!

great sound, can't believe they got it working using bagpipes and drums.
Duane Kelly that’s how they work that’s how Scotland 🏴 is.
Always loved the sound of the bag pipe but these guys took it to a whole different level!
awwwww bagpipes the only musical instrument that can play a tune while harmonizing with it's self
What about piano? Guitar? Any string instrument??? Lol
That Scottish lass who was the front person for Middle of the Road seemed to be able to harmonize. So does Annie Lennox. Must be a Scotland thing.
Piano
Ever heard of the harmonica? :P

666 has nothing to do with the devil. Its meaning goes way back.
Bible humpers only believe it is evil because of that stupid movie The Omen.
Hollywood is to blame.
all roman letters have numeral equivalence ie....v=5 I=1 so neros name adds up to 666 now you know

The number appears in the book of Revelation, and is the number of The Beast, which has uniformly been considered to be evil. Revelation was written around AD 100, centuries before Hollywood.
That was awesome. just shows people what can be done with the pipes. and pipe bands for that matter.
