Hello, I will do a longer post soon, but just wanted to say the Battle of Harlaw and Medieval Festival went well, despite Saturday’s awful weather. The sun even came out yesterday 
We had a medieval camp, fighting soldiers, cannons (yes, I did hit the Dining Room ceiling at least 4 times) and the fantastic Clann an Drumma. They were especially brilliant, and I am now dancing around my house to their CD.
Go, listen, enjoy.
Oh, and by the way I’ve just found a video of them from earlier in the year, volume up!
I have to say, were the audience dead in that clip? There was much whooping, cheering and clapping when they played yesterday…and dancing. Though not by me (dancing that is).
Which Grand Duchess Would YOU Be?
OK, call me goofy (you do anyway, no doubt) but I love this kind of music. I love the drum beat especially, maybe because it brings out something primal in me (scary thought), but seeing this video just takes me back in time. I don’t know why no one was cheering and dancing either. I would have been too!
Wow.
That was really cool!! Contrary to the opinions of my forebears, I must have some Celtic blood in me ‘cuz music like that rings deep in the heart.
I thought it was really cool, and I know what you mean Carol and Hilary.
I am a rabid fan of the Clann (and Albannach now too). We have a lot of their music on Celtic Radio if you’re a fan of streaming radio stations.
