Anyone heard of The Red Hot Chilli Pipers?

They do a lot of really awesome rock covers.

The Red Hot Chilli Pipers- Hellbound Train

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detail...

MQ. Your favourite cover by them?

BQ. Seen them live? How were they?

Update:

Hi David.

Thank you for showing some interest. I guess If the answers above you had a life, they'd be doing something else wouldn't they. They have covered some rock classics so your sure to find something you like in there. I would love to see them live. Thanks for your answer.

Update 2:

Hi Mucky!

Lol. You've got too much of a good thing up there. I spent some time in Edingborough and Aberdeen. I was mesmerized by these things then. When the cruiseships dock in town here, the mayor greets them with a piper. It carries on the air for miles and calls to me so. Thanks for your answer.

Update 3:

Giddyup Mucky!

They were brilliant. Hills of Argyle, was seriously well played and Highland Cathedral was edgey and rocky. I'm not ashamed to admit it, I love bagpipes :) Thanks for recommending these.

Update 4:

Hi VK.

NIce choice, and i'd love to hear Knights of Cydonia get the bagpipes treatment too :) Thanks for your answer.

Update 5:

Hi Uncool1!

Nice to see you. The album versions are so much better, it's a shame theres not much on YT besides mobile phone bootlegs. Lol. Thanks for your answer.

Update 6:

Hi Smiley!

Isn't it a good album! I still prefer Music for the Kilted Generation. After hearing "Chasing Cars" on commuity radio one fine Sunday morning, it made my drive time amazing. So that's the first one I got into, and still my favourite. Voodoo Child is a great choice. Thank you for your answer.

Update 7:

Hi Music Man!

Unfortunately the YT versions don't do the songs justice. The album version is so much better. Thank you for your answer.

    Yes, I discovered them a couple years ago by chance while browsing YouTube. I've since gone out and bought their CD "Bagrock To The Masses" :)

    MQ: Voodoo Child...

    BQ: No...but if they ever play here in Calgary, Canada (which is a Scottish name by the way), we'll check 'em out!

    I have never heard of them before but I loved the cover of "Hellbound Train" - I just checked this one and I thought it was interesting to hear VooDoo Child on Bagpipes. Not bad at all.

    Hi Amy, no and thanks for turning me onto something new, it's nice to have something new and refreshing as this is and I'll be looking more of there music up though. Can't go wrong with bagpipes.

    MQ: I can't say I have one yet, but for argument sake we'll say Hellbound Train.

    BQ: No.

    See there are one of two idiots out tonight.

    take care

    The R&R HOF was so desperate to find anyone worthy of getting someone in, included them this year. What a sham.

    I have never heard of them. I too thought it was a typo.

    I like them.

    Very cool.

    I love it when someone turns me on to a new band.

    Thanks so much, have a great day....
