I just saw an incredible thing on youtube... a 700-person marching piper band from Calgary:

YouTube - 700 Pipers and Drummers in Calgary

That is so frikkin' cool and impressive.

Who are they, and how are they organized?

There is no 700 person pipe and drum band from Calgary.

what you posted is a mass band at the 2006 highland games. The bands were from all over.
