traditional Burns Supper in Killiecrankie. A couple of pals and I were
singing Burns songs and instrumental sets on stage, joined by Martin
MacLeod (ex-Capercaillie), who also did a couple of solo spots.
There was also a piano accordionist who did a solo spot - I thought it

etc all over-sweetened) although there's no doubt he was a skilled
musician. Just not my cup of tea.
It was a good evening. Any other musical tales?
