Frederick Maryland Celtic Festival

[Jerry]

This is just to bump this up to the top again. It's now definite, My wife and I are going to be at this event. It appears that it will probably be the only chance I get to see Albannoch perform. Grandfather mountain is just too long a drive. I'm leaving Amelia County at about 6 AM on the 13th( about a 3 and a half hour drive) and will stay overnight in Frederick that night. My plan is to wear my Macneil casual kilt with the Xmarks tee shirt (weather permitting). I'm looking forward to maybe meeting some of you other Xmarkers there.

It's a definite that I'll be going there on Saturday too! We're going try to be there by 12 and see how long we'll stay (depends on how tired I get). It'll be Nopadon, my grandmother and myself attending. I can't wait!

Didn't see, er um, rather recognize, anyone there and my mate here had to work so I did the trek loner style. Got there at noon and stayed till after 5. Saw some great pipers, lots of clans represented with clan society booths, scary big guys hurled things, and some really fun bands rocked out. Kilts, kilts, everywhere. It was green, mostly overcast and a PERFECT day. Wish I'd run into an Xmarker, but as they say, "Next year in the promised land".

Btw, I here there's a fete coming in June: something on the Potomac?

You probably did run into me. I was one of those in the red staff shirts, but you could easily tell who I was. I was the one with all the drinking horns, with a really big drinking horn hanig around me neck.

We were not able to make Fredrick but indeed the Potomac Celtic Festival in Leesburg, VA is June 17 and 18. Their website is not updated with this year's schedule yet but I've sent an inquiry and will post when it's available.
