We were at Epcot Center about ten years ago and were going past the Canadian pavilion. Outside there was a stage and a rock band in kilts telling us they were going to play the traditional music of Canada and as GBS fans we wanted to hear them, even with electric instruments. To our surprise, the first song they played was this GBS arrangement of "Run Runaway". Good show.
