Last year the F-H.C.A.G. and I took the kids and were very impressed with this event. We will be attending both Saturday and sunday as it truly is a Highland Games worth going to both days as there is so much to do.

The Musician’s scheduled to appear are:

Stand Easy, Brother, The Ric Blair Band, Browne Sisters, Alex Beaton, Golden Bough, The Wicked Tinkers, and Albannach.

The Winked Tinkers always put on a good show. I got to listen to Stand Easy at the Monterey Games and they are well worth checking out. After reading rave reviews about Albannach from Mike1 and many others here at XMTS I am looking forward to finally getting to listen to them myself.

So who is up to meeting up at the Games?

Cheers
