Video of the Band’s Performance

The Following video is The College of Piping’s performance during the World’s Pipe Band Championships held in Glasgow, Scotland on August 11, 2007.
Although you can’t tell from the video, it was pouring rain.

This performance was judged so that the College of Piping could lay claim to be the 4th Best in the World in their category, Grade 3.
Pretty remarkable, when you consider that 17 of the 24 band members are under the age of 19! (The youngest is 12!)
These kids competed against other bands that had
players that have been playing competively, longer than these kids have been alive!

I was there to witness this, and I can tell you, it was one of the proudest moments in my life.
Enjoy.
