I'll be the first to admit that I was VERY unsure of what to expect on Monday night when we returned for solo drumming practice, but I was sure that it was gonna be a doddle, because (of course) it was the DRUMMING solo's, so the judges won't be listening to the piping...so it dosn't matter than much anyway.

BOY WAS I WRONG!

Turns out that you want EVERYTHING to be outstanding - and with 2x pipers to 1x drummer, there's nowhere to hide. A completly different style to band playing, but one in which everyone's enjoying the challenge.

Competing next Saturday and going head to head will be, in the Junior Section

Andy Young .v. Benjamin Graham

And in the Seniors will be our very own Chris Johnston!

We'll keep you updated on how things are progressing1
