Cats, Fiddles, Swords, and other Scottish Dancing Chaos (or, well, we hope not)

[acroyear]

As noted elsewhere, we're (well, she, with my moral support and guidance (yeah, like that's worth anything)) performing with the local Scottish Country Dancers this weekend, making for a busy day (lunch can't even begin until 2:30).

• 10-11: morning dance @ the info booth and may pole
• 1130: boardwalk.  we may socialize with the rat puckers but can't stay long
• 1215: we're practicing with the Scottish dancers backstage
• 1pm: Kenwood lane from the Bullseye II booth down to the herbalists.  We can't go much further in one direction due to E Musicki amplified at the Market, and can't go too far the other direction due to the Rogues at the White Hart (yeah, Rock and a Hard place, *literally*).  We'll probably wonder up and down a bit.  No dancing due to the rocks but we may have some new tunes to play (well, practice ;-) ).
  
• 2pm: Playing for Scottish Country Dance at the Market and being grateful it's not "stage in the middle of nowhere" it was the last time we played it years ago.
• 4pm: same thing (so yeah, lunch can fit in there somewhere)
• 5pm: boardwalk, usually up by the Fortune Tellers booth.
• 530: I'll be at the white hart socializing and prepping for pub sing.  there's been a "me" shaped hole in one column for weeks that needs filling.

Our shows will be our the "Scottish" set - I'll be all kilted up.  I won't know if i'm doing full-effect or short kilt until thursday when we'll have a better prediction of the weather.  Dances will include Fling and Sword and our unique "Strathspey and Reel for One".
