Long live real music!" - Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull.

Performance: KC Scottish Highland Games!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
• June 12 in KC: Uncle Dirtytoes will serenade the throwing of hammers and the tossing of cabers (or is it capers? That seems much more sensible!) on Saturday afternoon, 2pm on June 12 at the Kansas City Scottish Highland Games in North Kansas City (in Riverside, MO, next to Argosy Casino). We will be joined by our Marianne Payette Carter on violin and vocals for this gig. It should be something special, so ya'll come out and hear!
