   Top job Gus! Thanks for putting these up so quickly year after year.

   Congrats to Barry on besting a field with an amazingly high standard.

   A brilliant final – a pity I couldn’t make the day due to work commitments….

   Regards

    Gus,

    Great job chief. I only wish that this can be done for other events in the same way. Quality is far better than YouTube.

    I hope that you had a good night afterwards in the Station Bar 🙂

    He Olav,

    Rob Hoogenhoud was bij me. Vertelde van deze site en ik kwam ik jou tegen.
    Dit zijn geen leuke dingen om te zien en vooral niet om mee te maken lijkt me…..

    Kl*te voor je!

    Heb je verder nog gespeeld?

    How do pick the winner?? How much does personal bias and opinion come into it?? The top six were all supburb…with different styles to boot…I really like Gordon Brown as a drummer, loved his MSR (very worthy winner), Eric Ward is a dynamite player, but just didn’t quite like his choice of music so much..Steven is just as gifted and well, you can never discount the great Jim Kilpatrick…a real master. So glad this was made available for viewing and sincerely hope that it continues year by year. Well done.

    It is great to see the cream of the world's pipe band side drummers going toe to toe, with combined musical excellence…to achieve the standards of these top echelon competitors, would truely take special talent and the best part of a life time to perfect….there is no other form of drumming or any other drummers in any other discipline who would come in a bulls roar of these guys!!
