Length of Piper's Plaid for tall guys

[OC Richard]

Here's a video made by two guys very familiar to me! Didn't know they did this. Peter Harvie is an ex-Scots Guards piper, and should know a thing or two about how to wear a plaid!

Ken Misch is the Drum Major for the Los Angeles Scottish Pipe Band (Grade One).

As you can see this method puts the extra bit up over the shell and epaulette, and thus it really doesn't matter how long that extra bit is, I wouldn't think.

Here's another video of a similar method. He removes the left-shoulder shell.

Can't find a video of the roll-it-into-a-rope method I learned in the 70s.
