I saw them play several times at this small (but now defunct) pub in the SF Bay Area!! To hear them on CD is a crime!!! They were born to play LIVE!!! Great stuff!!!
@JuicyCat2 If someone has never heard the pipes before you won't convince them to love them with youtube quality sound. Likewise, I won't try to convince you that tinkers are worthy of your love... but if you get a chance to listen to a cd or better yet, hear them in person I'd take advantage of the opportunity. If you like good pipes, you'll love tinkers.
thank god for craig ferguson, he needs to be on the late show instead of that old pervert david letterman, letterman wouldnt know funny if a scotsman came up and bit him on the ass
CRAIG FERGUSON YOU ARE ONE BAD MOTHER F!@$! GOD A MAN WHO PROBABLY LOOKS DAMN GOOD IN SKIRT(KILT I KNOW!) FUNNY AS HELL AND KNOWS HOW TO BET HIS SKIN WHILE KEEPIN GREAT RHYTHEM!! MY PANTIES OFF TO YOU CRAIG FERGUSON AND WICKED TINKERS ...WELL, YOU MEN MAKE ME DANCE AROUND LIKE A BANSHEE AND SCREAM YOUR NAME!!! XXX MAGGIE UR GYPSYTWIN
Love his show... I Love the Tinkers! Wicked Tinkers Rock! Saw them in front of the New York New York in Las Vegas on the Brooklyn Bridge! The people on the strip just stopped and started bouncing to the music! :) It was great! Hopefully they will be in Las Vegas again this year! That show was so awesome, I can't wait to see it again! You can tell Craig here has played the drums before! He's got a beat too! :)
I met Aaron Shaw in person, once.... he judged my solo piping, and I spoke with him afterwards. When he was at the Las Vegas Games this last summer, i spoke with him then. Really nice guy.
@thereelrubbaduckee Its actually a Bronze age Irish horn. It's played the same as a dige, but is is shorter (and made of bronze!). They usually mention it before they start playing it in their live concerts.
@thereelrubbaduckee Actually it is a Didgeridoo. As far as I know they only play didgeridoos and bronze age irish horns. They usually explain this during one of their live performances (they are awesome to listen to live!)
This happened the day Craig's dad past away... And... he beat the hell out of these drums in memory of his father. Very touching. I read this little tidbit of information from his book... American on Purpose.
@jimnmag This is actually in honor of him becoming an American. It's the second time he played with them, the first time was in 2006 (see video suggestions), and that was for his father.
@jimnmag It was actually a different episode. They were on that one but this one is much more recent. You can tell because he's older and he's got the salt n' pepper hair. It was a nice, respectful gesture, though, for them to be on that episode in honor of his father. I think this one is when he got his citizenship.
no joke ive seen these guys live they preform on the streets live in edinburgh during the festival, makes a change from all the pipe bands from peru./
OMG!! If I were a dude I would have a hard on right now!! So many things I love all in one video!! Craig Ferguson, the Wicked Tinkers, men in kilts, bagpipes, drums, didgeridoos and did I mention Craig Ferguson?! Holy shit that's HOT!!!
This. Is. SO. AWESOME!!! I <3 The Wicked Tinkers. :) Ah, the good ole' days when I was still a teenager attending Celtic Faire in Calaveras County. How I miss you wild festival goers!!!
I totally saw them with my grandma when I was little at some Irish or Scottish festival....For some reason I feel like I spelled Scottish wrong. Anyway, one of them told me that I looked like Brittany Spears...I didn't believe him, but I really appreciated his comment.
Finally some good music on American television. More, more, more! There are bands like this performing in Europe. Bring them over here. Please! Corvus Corax, Omnia, Faun, etc.
I haven't watched this in a while, It is 2/1/10 and Craig has definitely loss quite a bit of weight since then......doesn't matter really, he still looks hot in this!!
traditional culture based music is the some of the best music. not any of that hollywood mainstraim pop crap. im 16 and none of my age group enjoys traditional scottish tribal bands or african polyrythms. i enjoy all talent based music, not wats "hot". i pray that mainstream hip hop and rap grow old fast and ppl get back into the good stuff
Bagpipes are unpopular except for Tattoos or movie themes, in my country, didges are considered to be a nice holiday souvenir except for "music nerds" and without tubesurfing I'd never know about WT...
Had it in the car, some young punk playing loud hiphop pulled up next to me at a stop light so.......yep, put the Tinkers in and he turned his off!! I smiled the rest of the day!!! Thank God for the Scots, thank God for pipes & drums, and thank God for Craig Ferguson.
Thats awesome, he's like REALLY into it, its adorable! lol. And, yea...for a minute there he was dry humping the drum, but...he probably didn't mean to.lol. God, can Craig get ANY sexier??? :)
Bring them back on!
