And, yeah. That's a don't.

I only see two kilts there, don't know what the guys in the middle are wearing. One has buckles all the way down the front.

You have to kind of wonder about an Argentine band singing about the Scottish wars of independence...

Yep. A lot of Scots immigrated to South America, especially Argentina and Chile. In fact, there is a tartan for Argentina:

Why should we yanquis have all the fun?

The web site is well worth perusing. I had an e-mail buddy several years ago who was from Argentina, but was very proud of his Scottish heritage. He moved to Canada and I haven't heard from him since!

Ohhh --- I thought he just put it on upside down by mistake. 'Alf a tick, now; it is upside down, whatever it is. Alas, I think it may be a real tartan, just tailored by MacTablecloth & sons.
