    While at Dublin Irish Fest in Ohio, I believe it was the Columbus Police pipe and drum band wore Utilikilts.

    Hi,

    You're quite right, they did, and in addition to playing quite well, they looked good, also.

    In theory there is no difference between theory and practice but in practice there is.

    Wjile I didn't make it to Dublin this year, I think it may have been the Cincinnati Police band. They were talking to us at the UK booth in both Dayton and Dublin last year about UK's. Of course the Columbus band could have done the same thing.

    Adam, you might be correct on that, I do not recall the band. They were great though and actually had a piper from Notre Dame sit in with them. They let him play the Irish fight song then broke into a rendition of the Ohio State fight song. They were a lot of fun, whoever they were. I think I may have killed too many brain cells that weekend to remember much of anything. Other than the fact that I had a great time.

    I'm not sure either. We talked to the Cincinnati band last year at Dayton, and we sold several to a pipe band (that was made of police and firepersons) last year at Dublin, but I'm not sure who they were.

    Thoughts of a Do-Dah parade....do they still have Do-Dah parades? A Utilikileted drill team of some sort....maybe snapping and unsnapping in unison within the limits of good taste....

    Why, we have a Doo-dah Parade here in Columbus... that might be a fun thing to try. Something in the vein of the Lawn Rangers Precision Lawn Mower Drill Team might be just the thing.
