We've got them for Hogmanay (£40k it cost) and i'm doing the posters for the gig and Hogmanay party. So this photoshoot is just for me to get material for the posters etc.

Never heard of the Red Hot Chilli Pipers? They do tours all over the world.
No doubt they're more famous in Scotland though.

Nope but some real imagination went into naming the band
Did they start off as a another Chilli's tribute band then?

To be honest, I don't think they do any Chilli Peppers song, so no.
They just do a mix of rock songs.

Red Hot Chilli Pipers
Maybe the Most Famous Bagpipe Group in the World
Winners of the Scottish ‘Live Act of the Year’ in 2007 and 2010
"The Red Hot Chilli Pipers are sassy, sexy and hugely entertaining. They are
enormously talented musicians who are so skilled they make it all look effortless. This album stirs the blood and will enliven any party. - Lorraine Kelly
-
"Bag Rocks! The Red Hot Chilli Pipers are great live performers with passion and enthusiasm that has captivated the world - great ambassadors for Scotland. I'm a fan!" - The Duke of Argyll
"It's a unique musical experience" - Max Clifford
"The Red Hot Chilli Pipers' twist on our national instrument is a huge amount of fun. They have taken the bagpipes to a whole new audience and given them a rock 'n' roll edge which definitely earns them the Biffy seal of approval!" – Biffy Clyro
Since they walked away with the top prize on UK primetime TV talent show, 'When Will I Be Famous' in 2007, the Red Hot Chilli Pipers haven't stopped for a breath, other than to inflate their bagpipes!
Formed in 2002, The Chillis have fast become a global phenomenon, taking their signature 'Bagrock' sound to the masses and rocking far-flung shores from New York to Beijing and everywhere in between with their unique fusion of rocked up Bagpipes and clever covers of popular songs from all genres!
Their positive contribution to the popularity of bagpipes has been recognised by the biggest names in the bagpipe fraternity:
“You’ve made the pipes cool for kids!...Cheers Chillis”
Robert Wallace, Principal of The College of Piping, Glasgow.
“This band have taken the Great Highland Bagpipes to an even GREATER height!”
Pipe Major Robert Mathieson, 5 times World Champion Pipe Major of the Shotts and Dykehead Pipe Band.
With three highly successful albums already under their belts, the band has just released their fourth entitled ‘Music For The Kilted Generation’ on REL Records. Their previous live album and DVD ‘BLAST Live!’ (REL Records, 2009) has already gone triple platinum in Scotland plus their second album ‘Bagrock To The Masses’ (REL Records, 2008) received platinum in Scotland and silver status in the UK.
The Chillis spent much of 2010 perfecting their phenomenal show with an eleven date sold out tour of Scotland, an 11 week tour of Germany and a seven week jaunt across the USA as well as trips around the globe to Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, most of Europe and India which saw the band cement their reputation as one of the most exciting live acts around!
The musicianship is first class. The band has four music degrees from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama (RSAMD) and all the pipers and drummers have played at the top level in bagpiping. Responsible for the phenomenon of Bagrock are the Chilli’s founding member and Musical Director, Stuart Cassells, who was the recipient of the BBC Radio Scotland Young Traditional Musician of the year in 2005 and the first person to gain a degree in bagpipes from the RSAMD. The band also includes twice World Champion snare drummer, Steven Graham .
The Red Hot Chilli Pipers put on a show guaranteed to amaze any audience. They are a genuinely unique experience!
IT’S THE NEW JOCK AND ROLL!!!!!!!!!

I honestly can't stand this band. But if you're a fan then it is good news so well played.

It's not good news because i'm a fan. It's just a decent opportunity for me.
The posters and leaflets I create are getting distributed to all the tourist points in Scotland and of course i'll be sticking my name on the bottom of the poster

I know that, didn't explain very well. I meant if you can stand to be within a 2 mile radius then it's good news.
