I love how much the bowing sounds like highland pipe gracenotes and embelishments.

Saw Alasdair (and the rest of Battlefield Band) play in Bath, Maine, about three months back -- absolutely amazing musicians, and the nicest chaps you could ask to meet. Exceptional musicians and wonderful people. Truly rare combo.

LOL
Many scholars will say (and I believe it) that the Scots actually invented the reel.
I play Scottish and Cape Breton so I'm a little partial, but hey - I figure as far as Scottish vs. Irish we're all essentially cousins so it's all good
(and Altan is one Irish band I quite like, so that helps too!)
