Band History
Liddell lives in Inveraray and is Pipe Major of the hugely successful juvenile Inveraray Pipe Band—a band he helped found. For ten years (1998–2008), he played with the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band in Burnaby, British Columbia and won three World Pipe Band Championship titles (1999, 2001, 2008). Before joining the SFU Pipe Band, he played with Scottish Power Pipe Band. Stuart Liddell goes around some of the schools in Argyll teaching them how to play the chanter and then later on play the pipes or drums in the pipe band.

Famous quotes containing the words band and/or history:
“Nothing makes a man feel older than to hear a band coming up the street and not to have the impulse to rush downstairs and out on to the sidewalk.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
