It appears that non-musicians are wearing ordinary Scottish pattern cutaway khaki serge tunics.
Curious why if the band is in full dress including plaids why are they wearing the wide awake hat instead of somethin more formal?
What do you make of the other kilted figure in white spats? London Scottish is my guess?
