I was listening to my favorite PRI radio station this afternoon (KiltedMusicLover, Tartan Hiker, you know to whom I refer) and the afternoon announcer (Roland) was discussing the video of a song from a Scots folk group that he had just played and said that "they looked a little silly in the kilts" and followed that up with "but they're Scottish, so I guess it's okay".

To be honest, I was working and not paying attention to the song (till I heard the word "kilt") since this station, www.wncw.org , plays a fair bit of celtic tunage, but c'mon. That was uncalled for. It kinda hurt my feelings. I have half a mind to send him a scathing email.

It's still a great station that plays a lot of local and a ton of celtic and world music including 3 hours of dedicated celtic on Sundays. Plus they have hosted a number of celtic concerts and bands. So I can forgive them.
