Nah.... ya want to cause a stir at a prom? Hold the prom in the same fancy hotel where there is a piping and drumming clinic being hosted. All the instructors were in their respective band uniforms (for band players) or other highland attire for soloists. The formal bit wraps up Saturday night, we head to the hotel bar where a private room is set aside, and we consume mass quantities of adult beverages (the youngsters consume mass quantities of Coke/iced tea/whatever). Formal photos are going on just outside the glass doors leading into the lobby - and they notice that there are a PILE of kilted individuals... absolute silence when a couple of my coleagues escorted a couple of lovely young ladies back to their festivities. One fellow had a striking resemblence to Tom Cruise. (Actual statement heard in the lobby afterward: "I did not know Tom Cruise was in town. Why was he dressed that way?")

Cheers -

Pete
