Would it be improper to wear a kilt in a Generic Irish tartan to such an event? My clan tartan won't be here in time

No, wear what you want. Most people won't know the difference anyway.

Cool. Wasn't sure how picky people would tend to be  I don't personally distinguish much between my Scots and Irish blood.
Might not make it to the one in Austin, but with any luck I'll be at the one in Dallas.
