 the Orange Ludge and 'bauns' in Glesga's east-end

 
.
Eastern Amateur flute band from Bridgeton
Liverpool cc1975

I was sent this photo from Mr.Alex Barbour a former secretary of the band. The photo was taken cc1975 when the band was visiting Liverpool for the 12th July parade, the band visited Liverpool regularly and Alex believes the 'Amateurs' were one of the first Scottish band to do so?
Alex still resides in Glasgow and is a fan of the GlesgaPals website.  Mar.2008

From the map it looks like the parade is marching into Scotland St.
