I'll be in attendance too - many years since "Ptarmigan" and I played music in Aberdeen. Anyone else coming ?

Indeed!
Which reminds me Kenny, we first played music together in Aberdeen, w-a-y back in the Autumn of 1976!
If I remember rightly too, I was playing one of these, back then!
Must admit, I'm really rather looking forward to my trip, back to the ...... Northern Riviera!
Ah the Sea, the Beaches & that glorious subtropical climate!

Cheers,
Dick

I fear you may be disappointed with our current climate, "Ptarmy". Better pack the long-johns. "RonP" is coming up as well. Let me know when you arrive - I'll be at "The Blue Lamp" Friday night, around 7.

.... and you'd better remember "The Big Road Crusher" and "Bob Strachan"

For those of you who missed this event, here are two videos featuring Brendan Begley, Mary MacNamara, & Pip Murphy taken last Sunday afternoon in the Blue Lamp, at the Button Boxes & Moothies Free Reed Convention in Aberdeen.

Kenny & myself are sitting in the corner behind these three, hiding from the Free Reed Police, with our Fiddle & Flute disguised as Melodeons!









Does anyone else have any photos or video clips they'd like to share?
