East of Broken Bow | In 1976, AC/DC released a 'film' (what we would call a music video today) of them driving down a Melbourne street on a flatbed truck, playing their song 'Long Way to the Top', which featured 3 people playing bagpipes in part of the song.
Recently, the same street in Melbourne hosted a new world record bagpipe ensemble, with 374pipers (if that is the term) playing the 'bagpipe' part of the same song. One thing that I thought was really neat, was that 2 of the 3 people who were in the original film from 1976, were also there for the world record gig.
