I've got a paper one here (I'm going). Concert on Friday night, competitions during the day on Saturday, silver band concert Saturday afternoon, prizewinners concert, ceilidh, dance and singaround that evening, ceilidhs on Sunday afternoon and evening. Guest performers this year: Sangsters, Neil Patterson & Karen Hannah, Laura & Sarah Simpson, Iain Grant (who says I've got to buy a ticket to hear him or I'll never be forgiven), Doris Rougvie, Bryce Johnstone, the Danelaw Band, Jim Taylor, Joe Aitken, Forfar Instrumental Band, Scott Gardiner, Shona Donaldson, Angus S&R Society, Carrou Mor Band. BTW, one person I haven't seen on the festival scene for a while is Ted Polytello (superb ballad singer from Auchtermuchty or nearby). Last heard him at a concert in Edinburgh with Jock Duncan. Anyone know what happened to him? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack Campin: 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU; 0131 6604760 <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack> * food intolerance data & recipes, Mac logic fonts, Scots traditional music files and CD-ROMs of Scottish music. ----> off-list mail to "j-c" rather than "scots-l" at this site, please <---- Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
