78th Fraser Highlanders Pipe Band - Maxville 05 medley

[underdoseuk]

nice



[tomenicus]

I remember 78'th album Flame of Wrath. It was amazing. It was my falling in love with bagpipes. It's so bloody lively music.

[WinterSoulfire]

Quite possibly the most beautiful thing ever....This and 1000 pipers playing Scotland the Brave...

[weirdo3331]

sweeeet . i like those drums better, greens scuzzy

[SteveTheScotDrummer]

really? I thoght the green with black fade was actually cool. wanted to get one as a solo drum...but I must agree that these frums are very good and look cool

[weirdo3331]

red goes with the tartan better

[SteveTheScotDrummer]

ya...thats a lot of red though....but forgeting that, it was a great medley

[Bigirishcunt]

The real Americans were all wiped out.

I've never seen a *Cherokee Pipe Band* or a *Pride of the Mohican Pipes and Drums*

Im from Ireland so I must be American??????

Im Pink therefore im Spam.

Im also Drunk hope i didnt offend anyone :O)

[low56got7]

hey, I didnt know this till 3 days ago, but the guy I bought my pipes off of, he bought them from Glenn Brown from the 78th, and I can see my pipes in the 1980's videos of them.

[amonty290]

americans and canadians r tha same thing a boarder doesnt seperate cultures that much wel at least they r gd

[SteveTheScotDrummer]

your kidding right...you just said a border doesnt seperate cultures...so then how does a little ocean seperate cultures???!! there are so many scottish and irish ties over in America you must have no idea.....quit being such a dick

[CrimzonReaper08]

Depends on what you mean by ties.

[SteveTheScotDrummer]

well yeah but I mean the blood/ ancestry.

I mean you can ask a room full of people over here and most of them can probably say they have irish/scottish blood in them

[amonty290]

dam americans steal everything leave da bands to the northern irish n scotish!!!

[sm8000]

What Americans? I see a Canadian band there.

[fltopp1]

And of course I guess we arent supposed to admit we have Scottish or Irish Lineage just cause we live in the states?

[auntyangela]

@sm8000

so sorry that amonty290 has embarrassed the whole of the UK with geography again!

but it's a uk trad to wind up our Canadian brothers with the 'oh you americans' phrase

78 are tops in BC but will so FAIL when you come to Bridge of Allen and see the real thing

[sm8000]

@auntyangela looks like you could use a geography lesson yourself. 78th Frasers are from Ontario, thousands of miles away from BC :-)

[PuffMac]

I'm Scottish and form what I heard loads of Scots and Irishmen immigrated over to america (north, and canada) way back hundereds of years. Obviously they took their culture with them.

[MacDonald989]

@amonty290

Why? Most of us are Scottish decent...

[MacDonald989]

@amonty290

By the way, SFU pipe band won worlds twice in a row. Guess what? They are Candian band! I don't understand you. You are a scot picking a fight with scots that immigrated to Canada and US. Hipocryte

[brentberry1]

Been my favorite since i was 12...great outro Thanks for posting

[skyedrummer531]

The first tune is called "The Mad Dog's Cabaret"

[nubb1337]

yep

[nathandoucette123]

the tune in the background is playing "at long last" it could be st.andrews they play that alot.

[piper364]

st. andrews did play it alot, but they do not compete at maxville. I can assure you that that is Toronto Police playing that.

[bryce2012]

whats the first tune?

[low56got7]

whats the tune thats being played before they play.

[piper2drummer]

Its Toronto Police playing 'At Long Last'

[low56got7]

the tune that ends on 3:34 is the little cascade.

[sm8000]

No, it isn't.

[nubb1337]

yes it is

[piper364]

no it isnt

[shutdown06]

yes it is bud, toronto police playing at long last

[piper364]

im not talking about at long last, im talking about the comment about the little cascade. dont try and correct me, i know my shit

[piper364]

im not talking about at long last. im talking about the comment on the little cascade. dont try and correct me, i know my shit.

[s0dmg]

At Long Last was written by a piper in the Toronto Police, i've seen them play that medley.

[zetterbergfan123]

it was written by james machattie who used to be pipe major of torronto poilice in 05 when this happened

[Cooner527]

That is amazing, you guys are very good.

[BigTooT73]

as Terry Tully probably wouldn't say 'in my opinion your asshole is a little plumper than every one else's'.

[Diggis10]

these guys are insane, I especially like that tune at the end, nice harmony. I am in a grade 3 pipe band and play the snare and I look up to these guys, you guys are awesome, keep up the good work!!

[ultimatemusician]

nothing short of prefection OMG the drumming was just...omg it was so perfect and the unison was amazing

[Oso1G]

Simply fucking stunning. well done lads.

[BigTooT73]

entertainment all the way from the best. How did S.L.O.T. win the drumming this year when you have at least 4 superior corps the 78th's being 1 of them?

[alisonclock]

as terry tully would say, opinions are like assholes, everybody's got one, and in your case, there's little else

[Postie1]

Nothing short of stunning. Bill Livingston sure knows how to put a medley together. What a great set of tunes.

[chinngis83]

Does anyone know the name of the tune that is playing before 78th steps off?

[piper4648]

at long last

[chinngis83]

Thank you.

[thefivefour]

God damn the harmonics in that slow aire are fucking amazing. I've seen these guys a bunch of times at the Alma, MI games and my God... watching this reminds me how fun competing in bands is. Thanks for the video. That last song would be hard as hell to pull off as a band. Hot damn.

[PeterPiper86]

Breath-taking performance!!! 78th Frasers have one of the greatest harmonics of all the pipe bands and I love how they used them in "Upside Down At Eden Court" at the end!

[MPRadamacue]

KNow whats funny - I shot this video. I know because the guy in the Sunglasses is Jimmy Carruthers from my pipe band and I was right next to him when I shot it. Ugh.

[argyll1854]

Excellent listening.

Up the Argylls

[hagenpiper]

GAWD I LOVE THESE GUYS

[alib08]

interesting interp of trad slow air, wish the guy talking during it had been quiet though

[chinngis83]

Good Lord! That's good!

[thelonepiper555]

Simply awesome...

[mikerman05]

I can see meeee
