While wandering down 18 de Julio in Montevideo, we happened upon a group performing in front of the Pre-columbian Art Museum. They reminded me of Stomp, but were named Latasonica. They used a variety of barrels, pots, and PVC tubes to produce music. I thought they did pretty well. You can see, and hear, for yourself in the video above. Photos below.

The highland games, of course, had a bagpipe competition. Pipes were heard from dawn to dusk at the games, either from the bands, the piping competition, or the dancing.
One of the night time, off the mountain events was a Céilidh. The Céilidh had examples of Scottish music and dance, including Scottish square dancing and a pipes and drum corp.
There were many bands at the Highland Games. However, we only really went and watched Clandestine because EJ Jones plays. The entire band was good and quite a trip, great entertainers.
