public performance by a marching pipe band

Identical types: 3

General term used in Asturias for "parades" by the (local) pipe band(s) who "march" through a village, parish or district of a town; NB¹: Unfortunately, I noticed that in the majority of internet sources (mainly captions to YouTube videos) the spelling is incorrect: pasucais (i.e. with a common "a", instead of an acute "á") !; NB²: Compare Pasacorredoiras, &c. (Galicia) and Passacalhes (Portugal).
