TXPAScot is right--Stuart may have a little too much Blues in him for bagpipes! But they have done more around the world for bagpipes and Scotland than anyone in the UK!
It's not that the soloist is out of tune, but he's learned how to "bend" notes and actually stop the flow of air at his discretion with the chanter. Personally, I think this little trick works better with rock songs, and not a more traditional pipe tune like "Highland Cathedral," although it is indicative of the Red Hot Chili Pipers' style.
@DuncanMacRoy Waiblingen - home of the worst drivers in the world. Hope you and the Chili Peppers got back home OK. If you see these letters at the beginning of a German number plate, take cover: WN - AA - GP - RA . All are in Baden-Württemberg, Three are in Württemberg.
Ok to take the piss at first but the soon get respect

The Red Hot Chilli Pipers done a great job of absolutely destroying a great tune.
They ought to be ashamed!

It is a godawful start but it definitely gets better which is just as well because it is a beautiful tune.

@craiglundy1994 sounds like the soloists drones are out of tune at the begining and yes it improves dramatically once everyone is playing together
