@Pierre696969 "Shoot the fcucking band" wasn't meant literally. It's an expression used (often jokingly!) in english speaking countries. I have listened to Stivell since 1980 and consider him a genius and a gentleman.
I feel that the other musicians in this video (NOT Alan Stivell!) are inadequate and unable to interpret his music appropriately.
Better shoot yourself!! Alan Stivell is a genius! It really doesn't matter, if he does it old style or modern, he can handle everything. He keeps the great Breton music alive forever. But one will always find some nerds, who just aren't capable of understandfing Stivell.
Shoot the fcuking band! Please stop trying to make it contemporary. Go back to the style you had "A L'Olympia". Unplugged with good backing singers. Every modern video of Stivell makes me want to hit something
but he knows how to play the bagpipe? ... here it looks like he has a cat under the arms crying... he doesnt keep the rythm with the drums... but the band I like...

This is perfectly awful. It might have been good with just the pipes and an acoustic guitar.

the only problem with this video is the sound mix; less volume on the band and no one gets shot! 52ilyas

The tune he's playing is the Scottish reel "John Morrison of Assynt House." Though an usual approach, he made it enjoyable to listen to!
