"Hundreds of bagpipers have made history in Melbourne's Fed Square, breaking
the world record for the largest ever bagpipe ensemble.

A crowd of thousands gathered in the CBD to watch 374 bagpipers play along to
AC/DC’s It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘n’ Roll), shattering
the world record.

The previous record was held by 333 bagpipers, who gathered at Sofia, Bulgaria
in May 2012."
