Celtic Fest Chicago Pics

[McFarkus]

We had a nice turnout over two days of the Celtic Fest. Galician flew in from New York. jjoganic was there from Tucson & Chicago. Brewboy was there briefly on Saturday, but returned on Sunday with his lovely lady Megan. Stephen (possible future Xmarker), a friend of Galician from Wheaton College, joined us both days. And Auld Argonian was there on Sunday with his lovely daughter.

I'm going to start off the thread with some pictures from Saturday. I believe the others will add some pictures later.

Brewboy dashed in briefly in Irish National and Galician was wearing a limited run New York tartan with twin black stripes in memory of the twin towers of the World Trade Center


Stephen was wearing a Hamilton Grey kilt.


The evening ended with a concert at the Petrillo Band Shell featuring McPeake


More pictures to follow from others. Gaelic Storm was the headliner at the Petrillo Band Shell tonight - a great concert.
