      I hear up evertime. I have been at military funerals and a funeral for a couple of police officers back home. In August 2019 I learned I have Scottish ancesters that date back to the 13th century. My maternal grandparents came from Finland. That is all the family knew. They are all gone now. I have Scottish, Swedish and Finnish on my mom's side. Plus Viking.

      You are not the only one. I think for me it has something to do with a lone piper high on a mountain playing. The sound can penetrate in its eerie way right up a Valley. Very much hilly Scotland. Yes Amazing Grace is by far the most amazing hymn played by bagpipes

    At the 2003 Edinburgh Tattoo there was a notable gap in the initial parade of the masses pipes and drums of about 10 soldiers. The MC pointed out the gap to the crowds , and then said ‘ but they flew in today from Iraq , please welcome the Black Watch.’ .. they marched in playing the pipes all dressed in desert fatigues.. there wasn’t a dry eye in the place....

    This so emotional, and beautiful, thank you - bagpipes have been around for hundreds of years, yet it's always spine tingles, goosebumps and chills when we hear them, either as a lone piper, or in unison.

    Good God In Heaven. This to a Scot is what this beautiful country of ours thrives on. Music from the pipe bands and the lovely scenery, clean pure highland fresh air, sparling waters from the heather clad hills. The famous peat water that makes our whiskey what it is. Pure and strong with the taste of our great country. The comraderies, last but not least. "The once seen never forgotten memories of our land."

    The Black Watch take it for their drum line alone. Those boys are sharp. The Atholl were a very, very close second. Of course Atholl was playing in the poring rain so not real an even comparison. That said I would love to see any of them here in the States.

    As much as I admire the Black Watch as both my grandfather and uncle served in, the BEST Pipe and Drums band is the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards. My old unit, and for a while led by my amazing mentor, Major Tony Crease RIP.
    Long live the Scots DG's!!!

      The piping scenes in Ontario and British Columbia are vibrant and competitive. Contests all throughout the spring and summer, with bands that frequently make it to the Grade 1 finals at the World Championships. Check out the 78th Fraser HIghlanders of Hamilton, Ontario and the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band in Vancouver
