    Backdraft funeral scene Pipe Band

    Watched the movie "Backdraft" before bed last night and couldn't help noticing the full dress firemen's bagpipe band at the end of the movie during the funeral cortege and funeral scenes. Not subtle but classy scenes. Unfortunately the tartans are not visible, as everything is kept in pretty subdued dark colors.

    I believe the band is the Bagpipes and Drums of the Chicago Emerald Society, Police Dept, they wear Modern Douglas tartan.
