The Military Tattoo finale begins with the sound of the brass bands of the Massed Military Bands made up from the Light Cavalry Band, the Royal Artillery Band, the Band of the Royal Regiment of Scotland (which is part of the prior Lowland and Highland Bands of the Scottish Division) who combine with the entire cast to celebrate the Diamond Wedding Anniversary of Her Majesty the Queen and the HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh accompanied by the Tattoo Choir all combined to provide a truly memorable show forming the Edinburgh Tattoo taking place in Edinburgh, Scotland. Notable tunes for this years Scottish Tattoo include 'La Boum' and 'Everything I do, I do it for you' not to mention the traditonal ending with a Hym for 2007 being the Barren Rocks of Aden followed by the Last Post and the Lone Piper playing the Crags of Tumbledown. The climatic burst of fireworks then brings the show to a close where the British Massed Bands make their way down the famous Royal Mile performing the the tune, Scotland the Brave, We're No Awa ' to Bide Awa and the memorable Black Bear which is traditionally played as the closing march to the Edinburgh Military Tattoo. The Tattoo in Edinburgh is full of colour and spectacular atmosphere second to none and makes it one of the best events to see during national holidays in Edinburgh or indeed seeing it as a local on the grand stands looking over Edinburgh Castle, the City and it's castle esplanade. The Military Tattoo also features a Tattoo Shop based on Market Street near the Edinburgh City Centre where you can buy merchandise such as past performances of the Tattoo Show on CD, DVD and VHS dating back to the early 1990's as well as lots more Tattoo gifts. I produced this video using my Hi8 camera after gaining permission from Alan Smith the Marketing Manager for the Edinburgh Tattoo. It was a great opportunity for me which I will never forget listening to the sound of bands up close and from above. I recently re edited this video, shortening it down from an hour which previously included a behind the scenes look at the show which I've taken out as the footage slowed down the pace of the video though it does feature in a newsreel version of this video.
