 To be a
member of the Sons of Ulster Glasgow takes a lot of
dedication & hard work, we have never and will never suffer
fools gladly! We have always set our stall out to be a
Decent Flute Band and to be this a lot of Practice and
dedication is Requested at ALL times.
We have had near on 50 members who have passed through our
ranks since 1999, sadly many have fell by the way side
failing to give the commitment & dedication asked,
ironically some failed to understand and take in exactly the
meaning & direction of the band, one day we hope to see a
lot (not all) of these ex members re apply, we thank them
all for their good service to the Band, but it is the
membership of today who should take most credit for they
have stood the test of time and gave exactly what was asked
of them to help bring the band to the level it is at today,
because of you the band has succeeded in the preservation &
promotion of Noel Kinners name.
Our band practice, engagements & trips to Northern Ireland
are compulsory to ALL members and a high level of Practice
is requested at home by all instrument players, we don't
have different rules for different members Everyone is
treated the same, dues are £2 a week if working & £1 a week
if unemployed, in an attempt to encourage youth into the
band under 16s do not pay Dues, Travel or Uniform but they
are requested to help sell CDs etc towards band funds.
The Band is Anti Drugs, we do not care what members have
done in their past but for as long as they are a member of
the Sons of Ulster Glasgow Drugs will not be tolerated in or
out of Uniform.
We do not Drink on the day of an engagement until the band
is finished and out of uniform, then and only then is
Alcohol permitted, we are a memorial band and Total Respect
is shown by our members to everything & everyone the band
proudly represents.
A few lads have fell foul of these rules over the years and
their expulsion from the band soon followed, if you are
thinking of joining us you will be made most Welcome but we
ask you to carefully consider our Rules for we are Genuine
in our ways and these rules are of paramount importance to
the bands future success.
At the going of the sun & in the Morning
We SHALL Remember Them F.G.A.U.
As said earlier any Genuine Loyalist out there is welcome to
come a long and join the band, to do so all you need to do
is make the 1st step by contacting any of our members to put
your name forward or simply just drop us an E Mail on
