Thank you all for the input! I tried to do what most of you requested. everything under the whistle will be changed as soon as I can add specific festival details and artists etc. BTW, I am a graphic design professional, and this whole message board thing, believe it or not, is part of my process.

Updated Poster.... getting better... slowly I think

 O'Mulriain, can you please email me your artwork files? I'll want to do some serious editing if my artwork to incorporate yours properly so having the files to work with would be great. My email address is nick@ethnicwind.com Okay. I was working on the word "fest" today but messed up on ...

Ok, so here's the new design. I wanted to incorporate the Oregon Coast into it, and I modeled the silhouette after Paddy Moloney, and borrowed the description of our beloved instrument from the chiff and Fipple page - that should cover all the bases. Let me know if it is any better. http://m.ethnicw...

yes, thanks for the spelling correction...

Btw... The kilt was adopted in Ireland as well, as a sign of rebellion against the British.
