19) Seeking Friends Good morning Your "Letter from Zimbabwe - More on Bands" of 22 April 2020 refers. Appended is the scope of a project I've undertaken to record a history of southern African Pipe Bands. I've also attached the working draft of trying to collect & collate the histories. Extremely rough version - all I'm doing at the moment is collect info and close up gaps. Please assist with information re Rhodesian Pipe Bands. I have very little information on civilian bands and Rodesian veterans of my acquaintance are unable to assist with military pipe bands such as the Army Engineers, the Rhodesian Regiment and Rhodesian Air Force. If possible, please assist with contacts contacts who may be able to provide information. Every little bit of information adds to the picture and often provides a lead to another (as yet unknown) piece of information. Regards -- Dave Rankin +27 82 900 0948 P.O. Box 19570 Tecoma East London 5214 Republic South Africa I have begun a project to record something of all the pipe bands of southern Africa. If I can interest a publisher, I have a coffee table style book in mind. If not, I would still like to create a record of the pipe band community. Over time bands may amalgamate or cease to exist and the memories die with the members. I am looking for information re date started / ended / amalgamated etc. and a history of each band. As far as possible, please include references - it will make cross-checking easier. If references not easily available, I would still like whatever information you may have. Pictures welcome. Criteria: 1) Only southern African pipe bands. There were British regimental bands in southern Africa, especially during the colonial period, but they fall outside the scope. Bands which they inspired or helped create in Africa are included in the scope. 2) A pipe band does not need to have had a long period of existence. King William's Town Miniature Pipe Band existed for one day at the 1974 Eastern Cape Highland Gathering. 3) A band that has sufficient members to register e.g. a grade 2 band and a grade 4 band counts as one band. Gradings can change from season to season and even within a season. 4) Bands that also have / had a junior band or regimental bands that have / had a 1st Bn band and a 2nd Bn band are separate bands. 5) Bands are not required to be currently (or ever) registered with PBASA. Sufficient musicians willing and able to practice and parade together is what matters. 6) I have names of Rhodesian / Zim bands and Gaberone in Botswana. Are / were there any in SWA / Namibia, Angola, Mozambique, Swaziland, Lesotho, Zambia, Malawi. -- Dave Rankin +27 82 900 0948 P.O.
