Kilted on St. Paddy's

Hothir,
Not to drift the thread, but that is a great looking kilt.

Not to highjack it further... but Hothir just sent me pictures of the box pleated kilt he's making for me... Man, it looks great! Having not actually inspected the work as of yet, I would say you should contact him- immediately- about getting one of your own!

And now back to our regularly scheduled program... the Mrs and I were out for a walk that we just returned from. On the way, we got a very enthusiastic invite to a garage St Paddy's Day party from people I had never met before. I was kilted of course, so I can say that it was probably that little fact that spurred the enthusiasm.

Ironically I, a piper, spent the day in trousers!

I only had two gigs, playing for three hours in the early afternoon at a restaurant with my trad Irish music trio, and a house party for a couple hours in the early evening.

Our trio wears black slacks, white shirts, and tweed vests. I wore the same outfit to the house party.

In the trio I play uilleann pipes, Low Whistle, and Scottish smallpipes.

At the house party I only broke out the big pipes for around two tunes (it's only when playing the big pipes that I feel a need to be kilted!)
