    West Point Military Tattoo 2009

    Hey guys and gals, Here's some pics from my band's performance at the Military Tattoo at West Point this year. This being my first year I didn't know what to expect... we got there a bit late so I don't have pictures of the other bands. Next year, it's going to be a big production for us (I hope.... ) a full day BBQ/Picnic family day sorta thing...

    In the meantime, here's Glor Na nGael

    Gotta love that saffron!

    The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.

    Never been to West Point, but looks like a great place to hear bagpipes.

    Your band looks nice in the Saffron. I get a lot of compliments when I wear mine!

    Best wishes,

    Tom

    I bet the pipes brought cheer to even that gloomy place.

    Nice photos. I was there. A beautiful day. My band was supposed to play but did not due to sad circumstances. Hopefully next year though. Had to leave before your band arrived. Maybe I'll catch you at one of the Memorial Day parades this year.
