Scottish Festival
Now here's a lot of pipers:
The group was about as deep as it was wide, and of course they belted out "Scotland The Brave". For myself, I stood quietly trying not to break into song.

That set of lyrics reminds me a bit of Iver Biggun's "Half Way Up Virginia". *Not* safe for work,

There is an alternate verse that I like, sung by the Corries.

This one is sung, with lyrics, and is likely the official version. I hadn't realized a national anthem might start out by denigrating another country (Italy).

I enjoy the snippet on YouTube of the pipes playing Scotland the Brave, from the movie The Devil's Brigade.
