Glamis Castle Classical Music Evening


Once again it was time for the Glamis Castle music event and very good it was too, the Sheep ( my pizza and chillie con carne stealing friends ) were all at the Tartan Heart festival near Inverness, so off I set off to Sunny midge free Angus. Forfar bridies are great at this time of year.

August

This August(Sat 9th) I tried something different,while the sheep(my pals)were all up in Inverness at the Tartan Heart one band music festival,I was at Glamis Castle getting a bit of culture at the classical music evening.This orchestra stuff with a real conductor was great.It was none of your heavy duty classical music ,but easy to listen too with a bit of Scottish traditional from Fiona Kennedy and a bit of awesome violin from Nicola Benidetti,then a bit of bagpipes and fireworks in the pouring rain.
22nd/23rd Campbeltown.Booboos right its rotten.2 years ago up in Campeltown it was the best ever,with bands like Sambayabamba,Saggy Trousers and Box O Bananas.This year it was bollocks,apart from the excellent pipe bands,the highlight was listening to a guy with an electric organ and a wee wummin singing in one of the hotels on the Sunday night.
