Clan Pipers Frankfurt - Steam Train To Mallaig

[Seanftw1]

Good tempo an overall tune although in the intro the soloist had a few crossing noises if not that then slightly out doublings :/ but still 5/5

[jimpomac]

Very nicely done, good tempo and very musical, with excellent harmonies!

[Xogroroth666]

Well performed, rythmically correct, nicely in tune, nea bad...

[GennaGirl14]

Nice, very nice. I like the Tartanic version better though. ;)

[tubeyouusername123]

@GennaGirl14

this song is not in titanic.....

[GennaGirl14]

@tubeyouusername123 Not to be rude but can you reread my comment? I said TARTANIC, not Titanic. Tartanic is a band.

[tubeyouusername123]

@GennaGirl14 lmao well i guess we have discovered that i am dyslexic. haha my bad

[GennaGirl14]

@tubeyouusername123 lmao it's alright, I sometimes say Titanic when I say their name.

[Stimorolable]

Wow, this is amazing!

[Bigirishcunt]

The seven Piper's version is better, this is nice but to slow and that bloody Jemba Drum thing get's on your nerves.The Seven pipers sound like the Bullet train to Hell!! they grab this tune buy the Balls.Frankfurt just gently massage it :O)

[Blakey6678]

Der gerade erstaunliche!

[Quintus4494]

Really Good. I feel sorry for the guy whose pipes didn't start. We play the solo different-faster, and with wavering notes

[grettaziller]

love the drumming in Steam Train - does anyone know where you can get the drum score for this???

[emmgibbs]

Drum sounded awesome :P. Tempo seemed to drag a little though.

[CapoeiraPiper]

we play steam train in this same arrangement

except with less people.

[bagpipingmadman]

Sounds Good. I Like the bongo drum or wat ever

[wotlyk]

i love this tune

it's my fav 2 play

[cobbingman]

Bonny band & tune !

[askmrlizard]

The haggis rampant version is really good

[DragonPiper14]

I'm glad you think so! We're pretty proud of it.

[askmrlizard]

Is that Gillian? I was the piper who played with your band at the LA renfest. I'll bring my pipes this year.

[DragonPiper14]

yes, it is. I remember you! how goes the piping?

[askmrlizard]

A lot better haha. I was messing up bunch at the fest cus I wasn't used to your reeds. They were really easy. Two of the drones shut off. I thought he started a different tune in the first half. I stopped, then found out he repeated it! Had to strike in again.

[DragonPiper14]

yeah, i do play pretty easy reeds...i see no point in playing hard ones. but oh well. It was still cool to find a random piper in the audience, especially a young one!

[askmrlizard]

Your band's music is really good; it's on my ipod. Have you heard of the computer program called bagpipe player?

[DragonPiper14]

yep! I use it all the time! pretty cool, isn't it?

[askmrlizard]

Ya, I learned my first 10 or so tunes with it. I tune my practice chanter with it too. What kind of pipes do you have? They were pretty cool. My set of McCallums came in on Mardi Gras, before that I was playing an old set of pipes that no one knew what kind they were. They didn't work well.

[Kilfio]

Hah, STtM is one of my favorites to hear and to play. Anyone know who wrote it?

[simplythebescht]

The tune was written by Mary-Anne McKinnon. This is a much better version than the last ClanPipers' version I saw/heard on YouTube. But I'm still worried about the rhythmic accompaniment! Why not keep it to side, tenor and bass and leave out the crap that brings visions of a banana-boat to mind and not a steam-train? - equally, that medium of transport should be on its way "...to Mallaig" and NOT "Tobago"!

[gothicpiper]

simplythebescht, thank you so much for sharing your concern about this video. I'm sure your opinion means so much to these people. Maybe, just maybe, their wildest dreams will come true and they'll be able to make you happy.

[001bagpiper]

i thought it was wrote by mark saul, but i can be wrong

[savagepiper]

nope, it was written by Anna Something of a rather.. Mark Saul Wrote Hellbound Train

[eto8216]

Mary-Ann MacKinnon

[swimdude9d9]

Anna MacKinnon I know for a fact it is MacKinnon not sure on first name

[MrThedalaillamaknows]

@simplythebescht you really don't really know anything about either scottish or caribbean music do you?

[FireMedic1728]

very nice
