You might want to check out http://www.musicscotland.com

I ordered a couple of CDs from them recently and the service was quick.

Thanks for the input. I have signed up with highland radio, and I have checked out the Tannahill Weavers' website, and sent an email regarding their discs... they have a "listen section" on their website, and the sound is pretty nice.
I have yet to check out the other bands...
Gaelic Storm... rock and reel... sorta like the sound of that. I'll have to google them or something.

I have some Dropkick, and all of FM, provided that they haven't released anything new, I had the whole Pogues discography, but trimmed that down to just the stuff w/ Shen on vox. And yes, I also have the stuff from the Popes as well.

Has nobody mentioned Barleyjuice yet? www.barleyjuice.com

I really like 7 Nations, I guess you would describe them as a Celtic/Rock band but not real heavy, just real nice. They play fast songs and slow songs.

Anyone know where I could pick up a copy of the Real McKenzies' first album?
Something about a burly versions of Scots Wha Ha'e seems like good fun. I can't get it through their official merch. dealer, and can't find it on amazon.com, which is downright amazing, as you can usually get next to anything on there.

Here are a few to try.

I'll make another recommendation for Gaelic Storm who just released another great CD.
Fun, upbeat celtic music and great live show.

A mixture of both traditional and
a little more rock in their mix would be Rathkeltair.
Their piper is Neil Anderson. He is in Iraq right now but he is the
piper in all their recordings and most of the early Seven Nations cds.
He is hands down one of the best pipers I have ever seen.

For a very tribal beat try Albannach.

If you like it more Scottish traditional, I highly recommend
the old blind dogs. Rory Campbell is their piper and he is very tallented as well.
