Absolutely the best song of all time.

That vid is cool but put up the one where they are on a trailer being pulled through the town.
It was at their start of fame.

Badass rock and roll

Angus Young playing like a retard on meth. First album I ever bought was Back in Black in 1981

[acudaowner]

they were even played going into war during ww1 and 2 and other battles

but I will always think bagpipes sound like someone killing a cat in a bag .

On Bragg in the late 90's , early 2000's there was a psyops unit that would do morning P.T. with bagpipe music. Coolest shit ever.

If you haven’t marched off a parade square to black bear, you’ve missed out. My google foo is weak tonight, so this will have to do.

I had bagpipes at my wedding. The whole thing was obviously planned by my wife but I asked if we could have bagpipes. He played us in to a tiny chapel. It was stupid loud! Played us in to our reception as well. Only things I got in the ceremony were dress boots and bagpipes.

I did like that video. Not what most people would know the song by however.

Don't know what it is but there's something about bagpipes that makes me want to get drunk and get in a fight

Go back to the great brands and you find scotch irish

I love the bagpipes. Was gonna try and learn to play them but neighbors called the cops. Thought i was murdering cats
The fire dept here has a pipe and drum band and if you are 100% committed they will teach you to play them. Their schedule and mine dont work out which is probably for the best.

What we need is an Irish rebel music thread. The Chieftans are a great start. From a time when men were men and freedom was everything. Still is to some of us.

 

[sirhrmechanic]

Not always on the side of rebels….

Another favorite!

Copperhead Road has a cool bagpipe/synth intro.

 

[sirhrmechanic]

There are a few cool modern rockers who use Thaa Pypes.
