After an eight day trip to Beijing, the members of the Greater Victoria Police Pipe Band are now back home and trying to get back on Pacific Time. They received great TV coverage during the Beijing International Culture Tourism Festival's Parade, complete with an interview with Doug and Shelley Thorsteinson; husband and wife members of the Police band.
One of the up and coming members of the GVPPB speaks Mandarin and roughly translated the commentary. Basically, the introduction from the commentators just said the name of the band several times, that they were good and Canadian!
Coverage of the entire Beijing International Culture Tourism Festival Parade can be found here: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzA1NjcxMTI4.html. It's about an hour long; the Police Band performance is at 80:48.
Enjoy!
