    You just weren't trying hard enough, Glen!

    I suppose that a comedy club might be a possible venue for a kilts night in Ontario sometime....

    Well, I guess that Caroline's Comedy Club in new York City would meet these requirements!

    I went there to see Billy Connolly and Emo Phillips. NEITHER one said a daggum thing! It shocked me that Billy didn't run with it!

    The ONLY time that I wore it and got comments was one night when Rocky and I went to see Seamus Kennedy at Brittingham's in Philadelphia. HE had a wonderful time with them, and even sang the "Kilt Song". Ever since, I wear the kilt to EVERY Seamus concert.

    Next Saturday November 13th, he'll be at the Harp and Fiddle in Pittsburgh... and so will I... in a kilt.

    Thanks for the concert tip Jimmy. My most Irish ladyfriend lives back there in Butler and I've been trying to get her burly firefighter son into a kilt. But they love Irish music, so passed on the word.

    Amazing that Billy Connolly didn't pick up on it! Were you ready and waiting for it!?

    I love stand-up comedy, especially live.
    If you EVER have the chance to see this fellow, GO! My wife and I have seen his act 3 or 4 times, and he never fails to make us short of breath from laughing. See him perform once and you'll have a whole new respect for the pipes, too.

    Absolutely! In fact, we chose to go to Caroline's BECAUSE it was Billy and we were in kilts.

    Being a savvy commedian, I'm SURE that he was aware of the kilts, but didn't know what WE might have waiting for him. Either that, or he's had some REAL bad responses in the past.
