    I'm very interested in hearing them play bhajans though. I heard them do Dhol drumming on highland drums: very accomplished. Also sheds an interesting light on two popular threads pertaining to kilt and kiltwearers and scottishness or the lack thereof.

    They're better turned out than a good few pipe bands in England and in Scotland that I've seen in the past couple of decades. They've clearly put in a good effort.

    And as for the sound, try listening to some of the pipe bands in the likes of Pakistan and you may realise that compared with them, they're certainly no worse.

    No they are Hindu. The red dot on the forehead is hindu, and the picture on the sash is a Hindu goddess. Plus a Sikh would only wear a turban.

    I know, I was reflecting on the commentators who were not too sure...
