Well , the RAF Waddington voluntary band are frequently forced to 'couple
up' with the Piper(s).

We play the Skye Boat Song,  a medley march  which includes Scotland the
Brave. A favourite
with the RAF Messes is Highland Cathedral. It our best piece........... we
can drown out the piper!!

Not a big fan of the pipes , as you can tell. So much so that my mate (a
Scotsman himself) 
at work has his windows startup playing the damn things...
