I was 18 years old that year. This was my first and only time ever competing at the Worlds as a grade 1 drummer (or any grade for that matter) in a band from Ontario that is no longer in existence (St. Thomas Police). It was a highlight of my life to date. I remember meeting Jim Kilpatrick after we played getting pretty weak in the knees. My Drum Sergeant was Greg Dinsdale and and my Pipe Major was John Cairns. Best times of my life. Thanks for posting this. So wonderful.
Thanks for downloading this. I used to play with the last band, Casltlemoate Pipe Band, from North County Dublin, Ireland. We played in Grade 4 that year and It's such a surpise to see some video from that time. Thanks again

What a trip. This was my first world's playing with SFU and I've never seen this footage. Nice compilation from that year...!
