Well done WACKOS!

It looks like it was a fun time and everyone looks great.

Based on what I know of Streetcar (Kyle) as a performer I wish I could have been there to see his "Address".

I'll wager it brought the house down.

Cheers

Jamie

New to town Mike Glenn stumbled upon our posting on Xmarks and did a great reading of Tam o Shanter. We hope Mike joins the Wackos for some outings



Art Henderson gave us a great reading of The Mouse


all in all a great evening was had by all, this was our first Burns night and if it wasn't for the great info by other veteran groups here on Xmarks we would not have known where to start

George, congratulations on a great evening. Sounds like we'll need to put you in charge of recruitment.
