18 days and counting to Texas Scottish Festival in Arlington! And this year we get a weekend to rest in between Scarby and Arlington!

It should be an exciting year, at least as far as the games are concerned. "The Texas Scottish Festival and Highland Games will be the site of the 2008 World Highland Games. This annual event for professionals, is sanctioned by the International Highland Games Federation, and includes participating athletes from Scotland, Canada and the United States."

Music is of course awesome as ever:
The Rogues
Clandestine
Seven Nations
The Killdares
Jiggernaut
Seamus Stout
Smithfield Fair
Just to name a few of them..... American Highlander, the latest offering from The Rogues is outstanding, and will be available; Clandestine's 2008 album Red, is sure to be another outstanding disc as well.

See ya'll there!

*BUMP*

Today's the day!! Maverick Stadium, at UTA!

5:00 p.m. to midnight on Friday
9:00 a.m. to midnight on Saturday
9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Sunday

I know there are probably a bunch going to Central TX Faire, but those that aren't, c'mon over to Arlington! 

The predicted heat has forced me to leave most of my garb at home, though I'll have a tankard and pouch... see ya'll there!

Al-Nimer & I are going to try & be there but it depends on various factors.  I'm desperate to get 1 last Rogues fix before next year.
