    IF we make it to the Cleveland area next year (and it's in the scheduling mode) feel free to join-in with everyone else in the crowd and sing-along to "What's Up Yours?"

    The fourth CD will include: "She Wears The Pants And I Wear The Kilt"

    How about the "alternative" words to Wild Rover...

    And it's No, Nay, Never
    (shouted by drunken crowd) RISE UP YOUR KILT!
    No, Nay, Never, No more
    (shouted) UP YOURS!
    And I'll plaaaaaaaay the wild rover
    (shouted) f- you!
    No Never, No more.

    Last "shout" can be changed to something else or omitted if it's a "family friendly" place.

    We used to sing "RIGHT UP YOUR KILT" rather than "rise" at St Andrews

    I taught that phrase to Derek last Saturday

    when i go a-karaoke-in wearing my kilt I will sing the scotsman


    you see if you get the crowd to clap the beat for you , it gets them into it, and gives you a good beat to sing to!
    I used to do this song about once every two months at a bar called the Cowpony I would stand up ON the bar and sing it all the while ksmacking hands trying to " take a peak " it was a lot of fun though and the crowd really got into it !
    check with the DJ and see if he has a problem with you singing w/o a song ( I cant spell accapella....see ? )
    most dont mind


    Scott
    Irish diplomacy: is telling a man to go to he)) in such a way that he looks forward to the trip!
