It bothers you that much? I think a lot of the standard medleys being composed and played today are an effing joke - especially the march-on tunes: fast, rounded hornpipes intended for the lowest common denominator in the crowd to go "Yee-haww!!!!" but which all sound the same and are musically garbage. MG has tried something different. So you don't like it. That's fine, but he's written many brilliant & original tunes and I think he's entitled to a little more respect than you've shown here!
If that were me I would be some hacked with that camera man. It is hard enough to concentrate as it is with out trying to avoid a camera man charging towards you on the march up!
Didn't even realize they went overseas! Too bad they didn't qualify - their medley was certainly unique, I was hoping to see it on DVD.

If it's no Scottish, it's crap, right? LOL
