Considering Albany is only about 1/2 hour away from the event, that's a distinct possibility.

I do remember that the band mentioned did play at the CoC last year.

The pipe band in question is Oran Mor, a grade one band from Troy, NY. I don't see P/M Donald Lindsay in the photo, but on the far right is P/S Andrew Douglas. There were several bands there and the Piping Out of the Box competition was a neat twist on a piping competition.
It's unfortunate the weather was so lousy, because it really was a great event. Kicked off with a romping ceilidh on Friday night at a local Welsh pub, there was always something going on throughout the weekend. Reenactors, jousts, the horses, outstanding traditional music, rock (too loud for me, and I'm a piper!), atheletics, storytelling, and authors (me!)
I've been to all the Highland games in New England, and most of the big ones on the east coast, and the Celebration of Celts was similar, but clearly with its own character. How could it not be outstanding - to meet Anne and her dedicated crew, you can't help but feel (and share) their passion for this event. Well done, Anne!

I wish I could help you out, Anne. Unfortunately, I lost my job last month and money will be tight until I find new employment. I hope A Celebration Of Celts continues on. It's definitely a unique event and has always been a lot of fun.
