Most memorable

banding moment

Winning the European Youth Chapmionships with WLSBB in 1999, we all stormed the stage singing Westie songs, closely followed by winning the National Mineworkers First Section in Blackpool in 2001 with the mighty Bathgate!  Oh and staying up to 7am with the German band drinking gin and fanta because we'd run out of tonic.

Worst banding moment

There's been a few....Losing my passport in Germany sticks out along with destroying 'The Lark in the Clear Air' at Brass in the Park.  And when Bathgate came last at the Nationals in  2003, we were murder!
