tygerr, I passed along your regrets that you couldn't be there. myrrhianna has a lot of pictures from yesterday. I have two albums of bagpipe music now. This makes me happy. She also took video, and sent me six clips. Hello, YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02ckn_wao7A

Sad news... according to their myspace (which I am only on under duress cause my group threatened me with bodily harm should I choose not to put my profile up)... they will no longer be touring after this run at AZ RF.


To the Fans of Tartanic:

The ship has sailed, and we’re on our way to the Promised Land: for some that’s Tahiti, others Reno, and for others it’s back on the road to pursue personal endeavours.

Bottom Line: Tartanic has finally come to port at Davie Jones' Locker.

Jack Black once asked, “Is it better to burn out or fade away?” Well, we’ve lit the wick and walked away to watch the fireworks (not like we could ever see them at TRF). Our only hope is that we won’t drown to the raspy noise of a string quartet. If I were playing violin on the Titanic as I watched life boats fade away into the night sea, my last line would not be, “Gentlemen, it’s been a real pleasure.” Instead, I'd probably say, "I call shotgun!"

In all seriousness, Tartanic will not be touring after the close of the Arizona Renaissance Festival. Please come out to Apache Junction to give us your support because it's truly been a joy to entertain you. Also, come and get your Tartanic CDs because they're going like hot cakes and won't be available for much longer (AZRF ends April 8, 2007). They will also be available at CDBaby.com until that date.

Again, we've enjoyed our run for the last five years and we've especially loved meeting all of our adoring fans. In ten years, we'll look back at this period in our lives and think fondly on it.

We Love You,

The Guys of Tartanic

*nod* tygerr and cawingcrow were telling me, and I understood that I was under threat of Very Severe Glaring should I not go and wish them well and get pics.

It looks like they've already lost two of the regular members even for their last faire--EJ, the longhaired bagpiper isn't normally part of the group, so one bagpiper and one drummer are AWOL. Guess they are the two moving on to new things, which is bizarre as I assumed one of those was likely to be Adrian. I'm SO bummed we didn't get to see them one more time here locally. :-(

Thanks for the great links!

I'm hoping to get more video next weekend. The video Myrrh got was better than YouTube really allows, but the audio's very decent. Bagpipes and drums pick up far better than voice!

Yay pictures! Our fair starts in a couple of weeks. Some of the folk from your faire will be heading straight over to Scarby.

The fairy she posted pictures of is Miss Bit's favorite. They have the most awesome "conversations" whenever we see her, and Miss Bit usually presents her with some bit of art or other gift.

Yay kids! The fairy was having a ball with Myrrh taking her picture. Some of them didn't turn out, of course, but those turned out excellently.

She was on this year's tickets, too.

And I have more video from yesterday, but I'll have to offload it, review it, and then upload it.
