Maybe it'd be like that movie "Almost Famous", and she'd drag me along for the rest of her tour!

but don't you hate it when people think you are are part of some show in town 'cos you're wearing a kilt??!!

I feel like shaking them, and saying 'Nooooo, I always dress like this, this is NORMAL clothing for me, I wear a kilt all the time, it's a garment NOT a costume"!!!

Such is life...

When I get that question I just say "No". No further comment. It drives em nuts trying to figure it out. Same with the bagpipe question. I got kinda tired of being cute about it.

You have NO IDEA how many pubs I've entered with no cover charge because they thought I was part of the band!!! These guys all know me now, and STILL don't charge me because the kilts tend to "liven-up" the place.

Thankfully, the band that I'm actually playing in wears kilts on-stage.

I agree Jimmy, kilts certainly can "liven up" a place. It sure makes it worthwhile to be kilted!

Well Jimmy, for a man who lives in " A Pub in Philly" that means you have free accommodation, that's worth wearing a kilt for

Mr. J. Carbomb,

I love the avatar... I went to respond to this thread and all I see is a pint glass at half mast with cocoa coloured goodness of Guinness within....

I really have to stop checking threads with your posts contained within, especially from work... come on quitting time...

Slainte,

Tobie

All right Tobie! A man after his own liver!

Apart from being half-nuts and gray beyond my years, a few pints of "heavy" are my weakness.

Smithwick's will do in a pinch... when I'm out of Kool-Aid.
