booking
If you would like to book the full band (9 pipers and a drum corps) or a "mini" band (6 pipers and 2/3 drummers), or a single piper or drummer please use the form opposite. Give as much detail as possible and we will do our best to work something out.
Please note that whilst we try to accommodate late booking, everyone in the band is a volunteer and many have full time jobs so we like to plan well ahead in order not to disappoint. For New Years eve and Burns Night it is best to book your piper six to nine months in advance - you will be probably be disappointed if you try the fortnight before!
In extreme circumstances the Band Secretary, Ian Freeman, can be contacted on 01202 698374 (Mob 07719 661034) or the Band Chairman, Campbell de Burgh, on 01929 471171 (Mob 07990 573658).
