    Kilt on TV x 2.5

    When I was channel surfing last night, Kilted Men were every where!!!

    First Sighting:

    It was a British import programme on Knowledge Netwrok. It was a showing a Symphony Orchester with all the male peformers in Kilts and women performers in tartan skirts.

    Second sighting:

    Our local news was showing Granville Island Market, a local shopping area, because the market celebrated its 25th anniversary. The footage showed a Piper with a Leather Kilt and was playing Celtic Punk Music.

    Last Sighting.

    It was a commercial for Spike TV. A man was playing women field hockey in a woman's kilt.

    Glad to hear that! I have yet to see anything of that sort, of course my TV watching is very sparse.

    Me too! Of course, I can receive only four channels so I don't have the same choices ........... but there is enough rubbish on those without without wanting more!

    Ashley MacIsaac doesn't quite fit into that category, but he's going in that direction.
