SPB Members

 

      Derek McGill
     

Instrument –  Side Drum

     

Favourite tune –  Ass n’ itchy set

      Worst tune –  Teribus and Corriechoillie
     

Favourite home gig –  Gala Fancy Dress closely followed by Stow Sports   

      Favourite away gig –  Getxo wins on less marching
     

Best SPB moment –  Every moment is best at Stow Pipe Band  - How could I possibly choose………….although Kris and his Shit stick in Ivrea was pretty damn funny.

     

List of likes –  My family of course, playing well, Chinese, Indian and Italian cuisine, a couple of beers followed by a couple of G & T’s, band trips.

     

List of dislikes –  Ivrea’s muckle marches, Ivrea’s wee bedrooms with loads o folk in them and 1 shunky to share, playing in the rain, not playing good, not having enough beers after playing, should I mention the socks here…..

     

Anything else –  Band has a good few youngsters who are coming through the ranks this year and we will hopefully see some of them compete by the end of this season. If anybody is thinking of joining Stow Pipe Band from any other band or thinking of picking up the sticks again then I can honestly say that you won’t regret it . Good bunch of guys here – not too many engagements and looking to score well at the competitions this time round.
