@CityOfLewisville Maybe I don't understand then. I have been in multiple pipe bands (including a highly respected FD pipe band) in the NY Metropolitan area. I feel that I am fairly well versed in pipe band tradition. I don't understand how making up new things like wearing fire helmets, grunting between attack rolls, and jumping around during a performance is keeping tradition alive. We would be laughed off the streets of NYC if we showed up in March doing and wearing any of these things.

@hootyhaha I was commenting on the video alone. I thought the speaking events and break out sessions were well planned and worthwhile when I attended in the past. Unfortunately I could not make this year's symposium. The City of Lewisville puts on a great event and are awesome hosts. I mean no disrespect to their hard work and effort. What I can't understand is how the event is dedicated to the task of Keeping Tradition Alive, yet bands basically do whatever they like.

Seem's like a little drumming revolte........ :-)
I don't see how this is keeping tradition alive, (there is nothing traditional about it except that there are people wearing kilts and playing bagpipes) but it does look like fun.

@beachmedic If a person does not understand or know the traditions, then they will not see the tradition. Thanks for watching though.
