Saw Madge last night in Manchester. Lots of kilts in evidence - most were poor crappy poly viscose type of thang. Wore my brown leather R kilt. Our seats were at ice rink level and so you have to walk down a fair few steps to get there. Then you have to run the gauntlet of walking behind the mixing console and in front of the back grandstand. It started as a few wolf whistles then a few claps then a load of claps to a round of applause (blush). Hubby pretended he wasnt with me - the sod.
As we made our way towards the front two guys in cheapo tacky kilts came the other way and stared hard at the kilt. As I walked past I merely said 'mine's better' without looking at them. Then I heard behind me 'bitch'. (Evil grin)

The leather kilts are a show stopper...it never ceases to amaze me all the positive reactions to this unit....but how was the concert? Glad you're having fun!

Madge was great. You go for the show rather than the quality of her singing. Live she sounds as if she has sucked on a helium balloon b4 coming out. Ive seen better concerts this year but none as spectacular. Only Prince and Marilyn Manson beat her for putting on a show. Last 4 songs are performed by her band and dancers in kilts including her highness. A tad long I thought - the kilts not the concert.

Those "poor crappy poly viscose type" were probably made by USA Kilts.

I have two of their PV kilts and they are well made and very durable.

Uh, Graham? What did you mean to say just then?

I was replying to kiltbear's comments on Madonnas' kilts, read up, hope it was clear enough.
I'm assuming kiltbear is referring to the kilts worn by madonna and crew, sorry if I am wrong on that.

USAK won the contract for those famous kilts, while some were not the best length, a bit unconventional, but hey, madonna is not conventional.

My thought was that if the kilts she saw were "poor crappy poly vicose type" then she couldn't have been talking about USA Kilts, because they don't match that description. Your response seemed uncharacteristaclly confusing to me, that's all.

Jamie, I've edited my post to you for greater clarity (I hope)
