I would be ALL OVER that!!!!!!!
We would have to play a week just to off-set the travel cost! Either that, or we could talk to OPEC about a discount?
Arise. Kill. Eat.

You guys should easily be able to come up with 4-5 shows around Vancouver, Whistler, Seattle, Portland, and can do it all by car as the distance isn't much.

Welcome to the world of Kilted life. The first time is usually a bit strange. but the worst is now behind you. It only gets easier from here. Welcome aboard!

Yeah, the first time is the hardest, because you are aware of people looking at you. Eventually I found you dont even notice the looks, and the more you wear it, the more good reactions you get. For me it became so second nature that I dont even notice the people's reactions! My friends notice it more than I do. Apparently its their new favourite game: walk around the mall so they can laugh at the people's reaction to me kilted!! It ends up something like this.
"So what do you want to do today?"
"How bout we walk around the mall with Declan in his kilt and laugh at people's reactions?"
"Ok, lemme call Declan... Hey, we're meeting at the mall after work. Do you have a kilt on or with you?"
I can only imagine what it would be like with 5 guys in kilts just hanging around a major public space with no set plan (not including pubs!)
Just a thought: what do you call a group of men in kilts?

Awriiight, bro! **high fives**
Another story of my own...I'm walking down the street to work and two nice women rush up to me and ask "what's your clan?" so I told them that the kilt was just th eBlack Watch but that my Clan was Macnaughton. This turned into a nice 15 minute conversation right there on the sidewalk.
Things could be worse!
