    John Allen Cameron was not only known for his music but his love of music led to him promoting smaller time bands and individual talents. He was inspirational in the Fergus area for his work at the Highland games here. He was the first embasitor to the games that took the chance to bring in and promote celtic entertainment and really good bands. A lot of bands cut there teeth in some of the events he put on. Many have gone on to great success and will credit him for there start. He took the chance and put them on the mainstage for the public to see.

    We have watched him deteriorate over the last few years in Fergus and officially step down as embasitor to our games two years ago. His son Stuart Cameron took over. He takes after his father and writes, plays and produces music. He was the producer on The Glengarry Bhoys latest CD-Mill Sessions.

    Quite the family and a loss to the celtic music scene.
