Thanks all, for shedding some light on what "Auld Trianglers" might be. I recognize the song - a couple of our singers club regulars sing it. I must admit, I enjoy joining in on the chorus so much, I never caught all the lyrics until reading them just now. I can imagine loud drunkards getting carried away with it. And it's not exactly the proud & noble song of sacrificing for one's land & people, like the older rebel songs.

The fellow who's starting up the "Auld Triangle Singers Club" always sang with great respect for both old & new songs, & was never drunk during the singing. I'd say he was our finest singer, had a huge reportoire, did much to further traditional singing & encourage new singers. But he's recently had some trouble with the drink, a couple of minor brushes with the law, is very political, & quite the rebel. It makes sense to me now, that he'd name his new club possibly to attract people who share his rebellious spirit.

So thanks for taking the mystery out of the triangle...
