Hi Richland,
I am not sure whether they have been to the New Hampshire Highland Games before, but my guess is that they have. Every year they put in an appearance at about four or five of the biggest (or most important) Highland Games across the USA. For example: three weeks ago they were at Pleasanton, California. The following weekend they were at the Longes Peak Festival in Colorado and last weekend it was the turn of Sky Meadows in Virginia. This coming weekend they are at Loon Mountain and, finally for 2007, Geoffrey (Tailor)/21st Century Kilts will be at Stone Mountain, Georgia on October 20th/21st.
Yes, I guess the business they do justifies the expense - Hugh and Tristan are based in Edinburgh so they have to be flown over, together with stock and display items, and accommodated. No doubt there is a certain amount of promotional benefit to be had in addition to direct sales.
