Would have posted sooner (left Gatlinburg at 2:30AM CST Sunday, was back in Chicago by 12:30!) but I have been busy with family and in-laws since getting back.
It was great to meet some fellow X-Markers, although as one pointed out, I had to drive 600 miles to do so! Will post pics, but it was great to meet Matt, phinz, Barclay, and Heathbar (who is also a Barclay). I had a great time although without the mud would have been nice. The mud did point out how rugged and versatile kilts and kiltwear really are, although I did feel sorry for the competing pipe bands with their white hose and ghillies!
Albannach was great! Caught both their shows on Saturday. The drums and their driving beat forces you to dance, you can't help yourself. Will post some pics on another thread. As a side note, I got to meet the band in person later that day, they were in the same hotel as me and 6 doors down!
Here are 2 pics from the end of day 1 showing the mud:
