In a Week, It All Starts Again
I had a look, and the first post here was last January, in the lead up to the Mid-Winter Celtic Festival. A scan back through the months, and you see the tremendous effort by all band members to put together music for the Festival and the Glendive concert, the various fundraising, and ultimately, the unfolding drama of performance, travel and competition.

I have had my head buried deep in piles on music recently, and we have some great tunes to look forward to next week. Ex-member Sean Somers has penned a cracking opener for the new medley, and Dave Roth has been trolling the depths at Tradtunes.com for some great music. The Vale of Atholl Pipe Band was kind enough to help out with a couple of requests, and so was SFU. When all is said and done, it is about the music, and I'm looking forward to getting to it.

The Mid-Winter Celtic Festival will be back on February 3rd, 2007, and we have a great surprise lined up, to be announced shortly. Gonna be an awesome show!


This November 2nd is the 80th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch #1 in Regina. This grand building has been the band's home since early in our first year of operation, and we have had many a good tune [and quite a few "developing" ones] in the hall. It'd be great to have a full turn out on November 11, or as full as it can be. In times when Canadian soldiers are losing their lives abroad, it's not a bad thing to show that we are cognizant of the sacrifices made.
