In Utah the festival took place in a park and not actually marching down the streets. I think it would have been more interesting if they had been on the street, though there might not have been enough room in the town it took place in.

[dahoser44]

Hello Richard,

Estes Park is a small town and it's crowded but it is a sight to have then march throught town to really kick the weekend off. They are a lot of fun to go to no matter how they do it though huh!

Floyd

[gimmeyoursamiches]

Highland Games are Scottish, pure and simple!! There not Irish at all!!!

[piperstune]

I know Floyd but it is hard working alot and not having enough to get back up there even though I live in Colorado Springs......LOL

[dahoser44]

Hi Rick,

I know what you mean, sometimes you just have to do what you can! Well it's still a ways off hope you at least get to go to the fest if nothing else!

Have a great rest of the week,

Floyd

[piperstune]

I played there a few times in the mass bands I love it!!!!! need to get back there and do again.

[dahoser44]

@piperstune Hi Rick,

This is beautiful. I have also been there a few times...and there's nay a dry eye when the pipes play Amazing Grace with the Rockies as a backdrop!

[dahoser44]

Hello Andrew,

Your right about the bagpipes! Sundays are always best with the closing of the bands all come together and Albannach gets your blood going too but the whole Fest. is great. Thank you for all your warm comments,

Floyd

[Andrew502Boss]

There's nothing like bagpipe music! It's so beautiful, I love it. This festival is awesome! If you have never been, you should go.

[dahoser44]

@Andrew502Boss Hello Andrew,

I'm real sorry it has taken so long to reply but never got notice of your comment. Thank you, this is an awesome festival and is great fun to go, like you said if you haven't been to it you should. Always the weekend after Labor Day.

Have a great New Years,

Floyd

[KarsonBradley]

My uncle played this on the bagpipes at my grandmas funeral. I couldnt see how he could do it.

[dahoser44]

Hello Karson,

That really would take a lot for him, I'm sorry to hear about your Grandma! Thank you for the heartfelt comment. It's much appreciated,

Floyd

[Penzima]

can i have the mp3 for this? i want to download it to my iPod

[dahoser44]

Hello Penzima

Just send me your email address and I'll send you the download!

Floyd

[Penzima]

I dont get why people say the bagpipe makes horrible sounds. This instrument and song makes me proud to have scottish blood. I have a bagpipe hung above the grand fireplace, gracefull over the light of fire.

[dahoser44]

Hello Enigma,

I'm not sure why others would say that either! It is a beautiful sounding instrument when played right and bet it looks wonderful above your fireplace. Thank you for the wonderful comments!

Floyd

[Penzima]

@dahoser44 thanks you! Just wish I could go to Scotland :D and you can call me Raven, by the way. Thanks again for the post.
