Pics of Kirkin' o' the Tartan, Phoenix, 18 Nov 2008

Looks like it was a great event. Other than the Rabble and the pipe band, were very many others in kilt?

Great pictures, I either completely forgot about this event or it somehow passed me by. either way, I don't have an outfit yet that looks that good, so I would have looked very UNDER dressed.

that being said though, here is another picture of Retro Red in his formal attire from the Octoberfest we attended. It's not as good as the stand alone picture but I thought I'd help add to his collection.

Ayin, I couldn't pass the chance to dress up, but I think "Phoenix Metro November Church Normal" would have been fine too.

I didn't feel too bad about it, I am a piper, although I didn't play that day!

I had a grand time. Everyone there, including the Rabble Representatives, were a pleasure to meet.

Spartan delivered a fantastic sermon. I learned a a bunch about the Church and the Scottish connection. I'm very glad I went.

P.S. Fantastic showing all, I think we all looked sharp, if I do say so myself!

I saw no one else in kilt. A lot of people made it a point to thank us for coming, telling us how nice it was the see the kilt. I did see some women dressed in tartan skirts.

Did you notice the mini-kilt?

As Sionnach mentioned, we 3 in the Rabble were the only kilted gents besides those in the pipe band. And it was pretty amusing the number of folks that thanked the 3 of us for that wonderful pipe music! I guess since we were the only other kilted guys, they thought we were in the pipe band, too!
