From: Ptarmigan For those of you who missed this event, here are two videos featuring Brendan Begley, Mary MacNamara, & Pip Murphy taken last Sunday afternoon in the Blue Lamp, at the Button Boxes & Moothies Free Reed Convention in Aberdeen. Brendan Begley, Mary MacNamara, & Pip Murphy 1 Brendan Begley, Mary MacNamara, & Pip Murphy 2 I was sitting in the corner behind these three, hiding from the Free Reed Police, with my Fiddle disguised as a Melodeon! :-) I posted four photos from one of the concerts, on this thread: Button Boxes & Moothies! Does anyone else have any photos or video clips they'd like to share? ;-) Cheers, Dick |

From: Ptarmigan Thanks Ross, I only discovered this morning that something strange happened to those links, when I posted them over on thesession.org. That'll teach me to post at 2am ..... after a night in the pub! ;-) Cheers, Dick |
