Hello all,
I'm helping Skyler send this to the forum. He says hello to everyone, and a special hello to Miss Jacquie. We just finished the Albannach DVD and drumming practice. Skyler says he is very happy that Albannach is playing at "his park" in June. He will be wearing a new kilt this year. He has a new profesional skin on his drum, and it sounds AWESOME!! He is really looking forward to the Glasgow games, and we can't wait to see all of the Misfits.

Hello Jamesie! Skyler has been talking alot lately about coming on stage and jamming with all of you

He would love to stand by Jacquie, and may want his Grammy standing behind him for moral support. I told him I would prefer to stand down in front and cheer him on. We'll see what happens. He'll be so excited when I tell him you asked if he would do this. Poor little guy is sick with a mild case of pneumonia. Say hello to the rest of the gang, we can't wait to see all of you again.

I plan on being there just for Saturday during the games. We have to visit some family out that way, and be back to knoxville by sunday eveing for another family get together.

The Milstead Clan is counting down the days! Skyler is very excited. Had to get him a new pair of maracas off the internet, as he demolished the wood pair practicing!

See everyone on Saturday. I read on the Highland Game website, that they are not having the Celtic Rock concert Sat. Night!! We'll have to see about that!

Does anyone know when they play? I am planning on being there on Saturday, do they play that night only or throughout the day?

lissa · « **Reply #14 on:** Tuesday 31 May 2011, 20:25 »

I asked and the events listed below are what they said Albannach would perform at:

FRIDAY CEILIDH

SAT AND SUN AT THE GAMES

SAT NIGHT AT THE ROCKIN UNDER THE STARS CONCERT

Moonlily · « **Reply #15 on:** Tuesday 31 May 2011, 20:38 »

wonderful, thanks for the info!!!

lissa · « **Reply #16 on:** Tuesday 31 May 2011, 21:14 »

You're welcome

I just asked last Tues. so I think the Sat. night concert is still on or they wouldn't have listed it. I think the one they cancelled is the one they usually have on Thursday night.

the usual thurs. concert has been cancelled this year.

usually albannach plays 3-4 sets rotating w/ the other bands throughout the day on sat & sun -like every 4 hours. it's on a big sign @ the main pavillion. i'll let jamesie answer that if he wants as they haven't been here in a couple of years so things may have changed.

FYI-the beach @ the lake is closed due to the recent flooding so take your water w/ you.no swimming again this year...

Very good Blondie! That's correct, Skyler was a wee 8 month old, and now he's a kilt wearing, drum playing 4.5 year old! I believe we tribalized him well so far.
