    Las Vegas Rugby 7s Feb 10-12 anyone?

    I'm planning on taking the fan coach from SoCal to Vegas for the Las Vegas Rugby Sevens in a few weeks, the weekend of February 10-12.

    Will be supporting Scotland of course! In kilt, bringing my pipes!

    Any of you planning on making the trip? I'd love to meet up!

    BTW what tunes would be appropriate? It's my first Rugby trip.

    I play Flower of Scotland of course, but what other tunes are used to support Scotland?

    Scot's wa Hae (Wallace's Address) would be a good one.

    Wish I could be there. Please support New Zealand for me (except when they play Scotland, of course), and whoever is beating Australia.

    The coach apparently isn't happening, so I bought an individual ticket for Saturday Feb 11 and lodging.

    I am wondering just what to wear... the kilt of course, but I'm not a "casual kilt" guy. As a piper I'm always wearing full Highland Dress with an Argyll jacket, ghillies, etc.

    So I suppose casual shoes should replace my ghillies... but what sort of hose? And the only sporran I ever wear is the ornate goathair Edwardian thing.

    Oh well I'll think of something. At least the starting points are set: a Scotland rugby supporter shirt and a kilt!

    And I hope they let me bring my pipes into the stadium! There was a row recently where a Scotland supporter wasn't allowed to take his pipes to a match.

    Keep me posted if any XMarkers intend to going. Thanks!
