What's in the heart

[Jacques]

With the fore attached video i see well turned out veteran musicians competing in front of a very small crowd of spectators, yet still competing in their life long art as though every seat in the house was full. Which leads me back to this thread i discovered yesterday:

If some want to compete in their pajamas, let them. But let them be judged by their dress and deportment as well. If not by the judges then by the public.
i also recall a past comment by OC Richard comparing pipe band dress to their perceived level of professionalism. Just can't find the thread.
If i want to "listen" to good music, i'll buy a CD. These veteran pipers are a sight to see and hear.
Dress for the job you want, not the job you have. Unless you're in the military. Corporal dresses one time like the Base Chief and they never let you forget it.

A wee bit opinionated for a newbie, but i'll leave it up.
