King's Own Scottish Borderers --- "Cullen Bay" (which I searched for) and "Blue Bonnets Over The Border"

I'm not an expert, but I love the music, and the spirit.

I love pipe and drums, that Highlanders video is great. If you like a bit of non-traditional bagpipes, google "red hot chili pipers", they mix rock and and pipes it's kind of cool. I also like Celtic/Gaelic singing, although I don't understand a word of Gaelic, lol.

There's also the non-traditional pipes of the Mudmen ..... I think a couple of them were football players. Saw them at the Grey Cup .... Lots of fun.

Wow, very cool. Thank you all. I've always loved the Pipes and Drums, ever since I was a member of 283 Squadron, Royal Canadian Air (Force) Cadets, at Moss Park Armoury in Toronto, home of the Queen's Own Rifles, and the 48th Highlanders.

EDIT : Yes, officially, Royal Canadian Air Cadets was always the designation, but just as I'm sure Army Cadets wouldn't want to be called "Land" or "Ground" Cadets, nor would Navy Cadets want to be called "Water" Cadets" (Sea Cadets is better, but still maybe not accurate -- though I'll leave that for them to decide), some of us, who were considering a career in the Royal Canadian Air Force, considered ourselves, Air Force Cadets. Anyway, my career took a different path, but the personal pride, never disappeared.

I think I remember this song. Didn't they have a version with everyone on three-wheeled ATVs?

Then suddenly, many people were killed or injured, because these weren't just dirt bikes; they required special skills, which were not always apparent, to the masses. This was a problem, apparently, with cocaine too, in the early 1900's.
