"they may take our pies, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!
From what I've heard they will be traditional Scottish pipes, but he won't be dressed up posh like the man above. The dress code will be more like Mel Gison in Braveheart - which probably goes better with the free Wigan spirit...

Will the piper be playing a traditional set of Wigan Bagpies?
If anyone doesn't know where the Tudor is, just follow the music - you'll be able to hear it all over Wigan :)
