Edinburgh resident here - yeah, the techno bagpipes stuff is a bit crap!
Edinburgh certainly gets busy in late July and August, since that's when most of our various festivals take place. May and June is a great to to visit too though, and not nearly so busy.
It's a great place to live, I love it here :-)
I visited your city back in '92 as a young man and was taken aback by not only how beautiful the city was but how kind the people there were. I got turned around one evening and some folks in a pub helped me get back to my hotel. Never once had an unfriendly interaction when I was there. I have long dreamed of visiting again, the city left quite an impression on me.
Glad to hear it! Like all cities we have the odd unpleasant character, but in general I think Edinburgh folk are pretty welcoming :-)
