Even though I'm cooking my usual corned beef, cabbage and potatoes. Although I am not Irish, my family and I have always celebrated it! Have a great day everybody!

What a difference from my mom’s home town. It was so small the St. Patrick’s Day parade was an Irish setter and a guy who used to have a Clancy Brothers record.
Lord to mercy on my daddy,Maurice Whelan,My daddy led the saint Patty's day parade in Manhattan with the 69th regiment most of my life this is my first saint Patty's day in 48 years without my daddy my heart is broken
It's fake news NBC. Of course not. But there were dozens of FDNY marching who gave a thumbs up to the real patriots in front of Trump Tower. Thank you FDNY

The Mayor and Police Commissioner “ NYC and the subways are safe” 😂 with the lead being thrown in the subway and even with the NY Army & Air National Guard on guard duty. NYC is going to get worse.
@@nmatthew7469 you seriously did not visit the north of Spain right ? You don’t know anything about the Iberian peninsula and who our ancestors were, so shut up
Where is the group that marches with 343 American flags? I believe they commemorate FDNY who died in 9-11. Did they march already ? UPDATE: they are coming at 01:02:51 Stunning shot at 01:04:35
I attended the last year's St. Patrick Day in NYC, and although I'm Italian, I gotta say that I felt Irish for a day. I like to think of our two peoples as brothers. Long live Ireland and Italy 🇮🇪 🇮🇹
Hearing the Mayor saying this parade was about honouring women,was both heartening and heartbreaking,when those in power here in Ireland TRIED to remove us from our consituation only last week,the day before Mother's day no less. Milliún go raibh maith agat America 🙏 For not only acknowledging us women but the Irish too,when our own Government seem hell bent these last 2 yrs on eradicating both ? 💚
There’s been mouth blown bagpipes in Ireland since time immemorial, but the Scots do seem to have cornered this particular “market”, as your comment shows.
@@davidpryle3935You're right, the Scottish sell it as their own to stupid tourists like me. But now I know, thanks to you. 😅 What about tartan patterned cloth? 🤔
@@ouafa-nrw2007 I can’t really help you there. Certainly the Irish have worn Kilts just as long as the Scots. But the Irish Kilt is plain and does not have tartan. Having said that, its important to remember that Gaelic Scotland (the Highlands and Islands) and Ireland have been interacting with each other for thousands of years and there has been major crossover. A good example of this would be the Gaelic language spoken in both countries.
People of NYC. Vote Conservative Republican in every single election. Take your city back. Get your civil rights back. Get your 2nd Amendment back. Stop voting for liberal socialist politicians.
Great parade and great piping but the Pipers are in Scottish and British Army Pipe Band uniforms, nothing in their uniforms have any Irish connections, hope they celebrate St Andrews Day with equal enthusiasm. Greetings from a U.K. Piper 🇬🇧🇺🇸
@@Mncrrwe suffered 800 years under the brits with slavery, way, colonialism, ethnic cleansing, penal laws and genocide. The Brits still hold a portion of our land in the North of Ireland
Maybe get it right , the tricolour has nothing to do with st Patrick . The St Patrick flag is white with a red cross (that is also in the union flag🇬🇧) for northern ireland 🇬🇧🇬🇧 st patrick colour isn't green it's actually blue . And the Guinness that is drunk is actually a protestant drink ! Made by orangemen who supported the uvf in Northern ireland and gave them 100 thousand pounds, also hated catholics and refused to let them work for the Guinness factory. So next time ya have a Guinness (also known as black protestant porter) wear a wee orangeman sash 😊
@@Mncrr St Patrick was ramono British. The irish enslaved him for 6 years before he returned to Britain before going back to ireland to teach Christianity. So the irish celebrate a British man who they enslaved .
@@Mncrr it started off as a presbyterian/protestant ulster-scot parade in boston. type in.......forged in ulster-blog; the scots irish origins of st patricks day parades in america. .........the irish charitable society formed in 1734 which followed the earlier scots one. ti was just a walk to the local tavern after their meetings. they adopted the british military fifes and drums. then in 1800s the later catholic irish were allowed to join. the new york one started some 60 years later. the same thing, a walk to the local tavern....the crown and thistle. then, the american irish adopted the scottish military scottish pipebands..
Love NYC and most of the parades. But just really tired of hearing all the foreign accents commentating for the AMERICAN NYC ST. PATRICK’S DAY PARAD. Can we just for once have all AMERICANS AND AMERICAN ACCENTS FOR ONE DAY?! FEELS LIKE IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY while in America. Please make things less foreign in America!
The Irish have two pipes; 1. Piobaí Choghaidh (War Pipes/Bagpipes. 2.Piobaí Uilleann/ Elbow Pipes. One is for outdoor and the other is usually for more "session" music.
Pipe bands in the Gaelic Tradition (Ireland, Scotland, the US, Canada, etc.) wear Scottish-looking garb when they march. Not because they’re Scots, but because that’s how pipe bands dress. That's the tradition. Theoretically, piping dates back to the Irish mists, Tuatha De Danaans, the Red Branch, but the pipers we see on our streets now are part of a tradition no older than 1902. The Highland Pipes are war pipes. But there were no warrior Gaelic clans left in Ireland after the Siege of Limerick (1691) - (that’s right, all the murdering done afterwards was to farmers, fishermen, cattlemen, and shop keepers), and none in Scotland after Culloden (1746). The only piping anyone heard after that was if the British Army came tramping up your street - and only after 1854, when pipers attached to British regiments were first recognized by the War Office. What we see now is a hybrid: Irish, Scottish, and British. Particularly the clothes. Scottish tartans always referred to a specific place, or clan, or entity, which is still the case, but now they have to be registered with some ministry in London or Edinburgh. The Irish, by contrast, never wore kilts, or tartans, and while they’ve adopted them in modern times for parades, they have their own registry in Dublin. The plain orange kilts (or saffron kilts) worn by the Irish Defense Forces and a few other groups are meant to put a question to rest - them or us? - while harking back to Ireland’s valiant Gaelic past. A shout out to those who know the history, but confusing if you don’t, and not terribly imaginative in my view. At any rate, Scotland’s the Holy Land of piping now. And that’s why kilts! Scots created the piobaireachd - the pipers’ encyclopedic hit parade! They have the best outreach, the best schools, a majority of the top competition bands, lots of the best pipers and pipe makers, plus all the main piping societies. But naturally, there’s controversy here too. Scotland’s piping tradition is really a mixture of Irish traditional tunes and musical forms (jigs, reels, airs, marches, and hornpipes), with Scottish strathspeys, harp, fiddle, and pipe tunes from the Hebrides and beyond, and British military drumming, uniforms, presentation styles, and fanfare added in. Some critics say the British contributions aren’t welcome because they dilute and distort what would otherwise be a pristine indigenous art form. But without these “colonial” vestiges - bearskin hats, gauntlet cuffs, chevrons, epaulettes, military drills - how would piping even be fun? Ironically, it’s the British Army that whipped all this together by working sub-rosa in 1902 with a select group of scholars professing to know every last thing about piping (except where it comes from) for the purpose of building an unshakable foundation for piping in its Scottish homeland - a military unit clearly underrated as a hotbed of frivolity, subversion, and mischief. Johnny Walker spats? Drum corps? Baldricks? Who would have thought? And while this last bit about the army is generally kept quiet, it needn’t be. It’s staring us right in the face! Gaels in glengarry caps and badges, scarlet tunics with yellow facings holding the Saltire and soil against imperialists from the south? Not bloody likely! But it doesn’t matter now. Water under the bridge. The Irish “war pipes,” the “great pipes” of the sea-faring Gaels and their fearsome highland progeny, pìob mhòr in the old language, Highland Pipes in the new. Meaning, I think, the old antipathies have finally begun to cool. Things change. The center doesn’t hold. And it’s looking like it’s all for the better, pretty much. So we don’t know if the first pipes were Irish or Scottish - (Irish obviously) - but not knowing gives everyone a leg up and a side in the fight. The Uilleann Pipes, which featured so prominently in “Braveheart,” and which are Irish, aren’t used in marching bands at all. They’re played sitting down with the drones laid across your lap and a chanter spanning two octaves, where the Highland pipes have a range of just seven notes. In the world of Highland piping today, Glasgow is Mecca. The snowy City on a Hill. The place where God descends every August, rain or shine, to preside over the World’s. And God is merciless, say the Calvinists (who have pretty good reasons to think so). The Irish have their own traditions too, of course, especially in the States, with Emerald Societies on every corner, fire brigades, military contingents, weddings, memorials, parades, funerals, festivals, graduations, sporting events, competitions… the University of Chicago is one of 60 American colleges with pipe bands and tartans registered overseas. Carnegie Mellon’s another. And of course Notre Dame. Statistically, there are more "Irish" pipers in the world than "Scottish” - (see if Scopes doesn’t agree)- and a growing number around the planet who are neither. But when it comes to the piping canon, the how-tos and whys, the Callies have the first and last word.
Could you please explain to me what part of this is Irish culture? Apart from green tops and ties. Why are they wearing Scottish kilts, Scottish Glengarrys, Scottish Argyll jackets, Scottish Bonnie Prince Charlie Jackets and playing the Scottish Higjland bagpipes? Disgusting theft of another countries culture. From Scotland.
