In its early days, in accordance with Irish tradition, the Pipe Band was called the Drums and Pipes of the Shamrock Club of Columbus. Many have forgotten, but in fact the bagpipe was the national instrument of Ireland and the Harp the national instrument of Scotland. Somewhere in the early days of history, the two countries had adopted each other's insturments as their own. Today, we call the Pipe Band the Shamrock Club Pipes & Drums purely based on modern tradition.
