2011 Highland Games

Marching bands, sheep herding, pipe, drum, dance competition. A complete Games, on a clean, open field. Highland athletic events, shops and food vendors with a uniquely Scottish flavor, Maryville College welcomes the Games. I see this video is watched all over the world. I am eager to produce a German, Canadian, or even Scottish Highland Games video. Please contact me for details. -G

@mattyhall88

Matty, I'm sorry to say I don't know. I know some of the words, but don't remember the name of the tune. If you know a piper, ask him or her. It's a very well-known tune among the Scottish bands. -G

It is the "2/4 March"! You have the song on it here: Scotlands Great Highland Bagpipes

@MrScotland262 Actually I spent a glorious 3 days in Broadford. Here's me admitting to my gray hairs: it was in 1972. I was turned away from an overcrowded hostel, and a gentle brickey from Alford offered me a stay in his minute caravan. He didn't touch a drop during the week, but luckily it was a Friday evening! Barn dance in Kylochan (a returning Scot wore a kilt), pubbing, oh, grand! BTW, by email address is GWBScott@knology.net. I also enjoyed a small Highland Games at Loch Earn Head.

@TNGEO ha ha true, I live in a tiny town called Keith which is about 1 hour and a bit a way from aberdeen. Just all country side that surrounds us.

But the place thatI recommend for you to when you next visit scotland is Skye.

Very beatiful place. My favourite place in all of scotland. You have to go there!

Glazgow is also a very good place to go as there is constant street acts for your entertainment. Not missing much in Aberdeen though lol.

@MrScotland262 Well, it's a big country. I spent 6 weeks in Scotland when I was 17, and still didn't see all of it. Never got to Aberdeen, or the Outer Hebrides. Maybe later. So sad that most Americans seem to go to Edinburgh and think that's it. Like going to NY and thinking that's America.
