The band pictured above is
Cap Caval, and they were very impressive. I loved the
five bass drums they suspended from rigging, each having a different pitch. It was very effective in harmonising with the melody. The
bagad bands have all manner of instruments including bombardes, Scottish bagpipes, sidedrums and various items of percussion. One of the joys of watching the performances was that every band came out with a differnent set up, some had singing, dancing, and even a plank of wood for percussion. The performances are very dynamic, vibrant and last up to 15 minutes.
On the weather front, things got a little nasty, and the rain set in...
The bass drum set up is pictured below:

Cameron, I can't believe the size of the meals. How can you possibly exist on mere entre size portions like that?
The Oacis team are also concerned that wine is replacing Farmers Union Iced Coffee in your diet.
Keep up the comments and pics.
