Who needs power when you have the Mighty Nach
« on: Monday 21 February 2011, 20:53 »
So while I wasn't there for this live, I saw this video on the FB page. Way beyond AWESOME  :bounce :bounce

I can see it now, a clearing in the woods, surrounded by mountains on three sides. A large bonfire, the stars, good people and good drinks and last but not least, Albannach. Oh, how the trees would shake with the joy of it.

Can you see the the painted faces, the drums and pipes, all dancing in the warm soft light of the flames. Oh, what a dreamer I am at times.

This is just awesome. Nach, your joy in bring your music to the masses is showing.
Thanks. Just wish I could have been there.

You are very welcome. I thought it was really cool. Makes them feel very tribal.
How I would love to come at the firewood bandits with drums pounding in the dark.
Maybe put a bit of fear in them.

I think the Nach should do a few tunes at each night show this way. Sure set my blood on fire.

This was outstanding.  I was sitting there, bummed about the power, and shivering because the heat was not on.  And then Albannach goes on stage and completely kicks a$$!  They sounded fantastic, and the place was going crazy!

Oh, to have been so lucky to witness this live. I am sure we only get a small idea of how awesome it was, but I do have a good imagination. I wonder if we check the USGS website would it show a small earthquake due to the Nach power and vibrations?

No wonder lots of folks like that venue. I was thinking of our own property. We live at the base of three small mountains and a clearing of about 3 acres of pasture surrounded by the woods.

I was there too and the place was shaking.  The floors shook everytime they played last weekend but maybe more so in the dark!  It was awesome!  They all got glowsticks strapped to their drumsticks and one to Donnies bagpipes too.  Colin's were the ones that showed up best though.  It was probably a once in a lifetime experience so my son and filmed it too  :bounce

I was there too and ditto on what Bethany1017 and gin_mama said.  The floor is always jumping when the Nach play.  It seems darker on film that what it was in person.  Oh and I especially enjoyed the show after being stuck in an elevator on the 13th floor when the power went out.  It seems all the elevators stopped (or landed) evenly on three different floors.    Can't miss my Nach fix, pushed and pulled the doors open from the inside. I was surprised how easy it was.  Walked down 13 floors, got my Nach fix and got my video too!!
