Details

THE ENTRANCE I USE IS BY THE FRONT OF THE PEOPLE'S PALACE.
Buy your tickets online! At the door, tickets cost £19 for adults, £16 for over 60s (but bring ID). Online my concession ticket was £3.50 less!! That will almost buy me a beer on the day..............!!
I may add a few photographs taken a few years ago that capture something of what I always like to photograph at this event.
Beautifully dressed piper eating chips.
Visitor straining to hear the music; Why must bagpipes be so quiet?
Pipers with earplugs in; Who wants to hear bagpipes all day long?
Drummer sitting on his drum drinking IrnBru.
Bandmaster checking pipes with an electronic is-it-in-tune checker.
Ill-fitting kilts.
Small dog in a drum/pipe bag.
Basically anything that Martin Parr would photograph if Martin Parr were Scottish!
cheers,
Ross
One of my favourite annual outings!
Pipes, chips, drums, kilts, and chips..
