On thing that does strike me is when I see a lot of these street bands like Albanach and Clanadonia is why on earth do they if they wear the plaid instead of the phillabeg leave them hanging down all the time? OK I know that there is a precedent in an illustration of the undress of the 42nd for wearing the plaid like this, but it just looks much better and less like wearing a tartan skirt if it's either both ends meeting at the shoulder sash fashion (if they must insist on wearing them bare chested) or else pinned to the shoulder and belted up to expose the pleating?.....
