Now we know how it is to get a 'Star Treatment'.
A perfectly organised festival, thanks to Elek and our personal assistent
and interpreter, Marcin (or Opar). Unfortunately on the way back home
we got stuck for five hours on Poznan railway station. We got our
instruments and started to play. Not unlikely even that we've been
on Polish television. For sure a
clip can be seen on Youtube.
Despite football and occasionally rain
there was again an audience, some of them very attentive, some very
noisy. There was Irish dancing, when we played some traditional jigs
(play the clip).The sad thing is it was the last performance of Nick
, our percussionist, with us.

12 year old daughter of our host, Paulien, has sung with us a song
by the Dutch band Within Temptation, called Memories.

Live
performance at a private party
in Castricum
Near the sea, in the loghouses of the
scouts, crackling camp-fires, and a very enthusiastic public. It is
flattering to hear that people especially want you on their party
to play and to hear them asking themselves why you aren't in Carré
(Dutch equivalent for the Albert or Carnegie Hall).

Live performance at the
fourth Schots-Veerse Festival
What is an Irish band doing
on a Scottish Festival? Well, they are all Celts , aren't they?
Furthermore we have a Scottish theme in our repertoire.
It was our first performance in a church (a little one next to the
big one in the photo below), which led to some difficulties with the
resonance in the back of the church. But nevertheless the audience
was very enthusiastic.

Live performance at the
fifth lustrum of the Dutch Tolkien Society Unquendor
It was indeed a great honour and pleasure
to play in the beautiful chapel of Kasteel De Berckt in Baarlo for
such an international company of Tolkien-fans and specialists. Before
the concert Wym gave a lecture about Tolkien-music with pictures and
music fragments. And above all it brought us an invitation to play
at the Oxonmoot of next year.
