Meeting place is the parking lot by the BMX track up the hill from the duck pond.

The crew will arrive about 6 am if anyone wants to come early. Great attitudes prevail! We are also looking for a drum circle, if you have a drum, please bring it! Lastly, we need extra footage, please bring your digital video camera if you have one that you would like to help take a few shots! Desire more info? contact Mimi Burns directly mimi@mimiburns.com If it is POURING rain, the date will be postponed, but we are expecting lovely weather, (perhaps a bit of fog for extra feel)~ also, please be okay if your outfit gets a bit dirty! We look forward to seeing you!

Hello! Spring has almost SPRUNG, though it seems to be on the fence at the moment here in Indiana. Our buddies from Train will be in Europe next week, check their listing and come out for a great show http://www.trainline.com/us/home

Thank you to Highlander Celtic Radio for the radio play! http://www.myspace.com/celticradio

We are headlining the Indiana Highland Games at the IPFW campus near their new bridge!!!!

We’ve been playing for more than 12 years and this year we have the most amazing line-up EVER of musicians. Mister Derek Reeves is joining us (lead chair for the philharmonic), both Sir William Brown as well as Sir Bryan Nellems of the Afro-Disiacs Show are  our ‘in the pocket’ players holding down the rhythm section. Though Andy Kramer is not able to make the show, expect to see him for the Rock Opera opening in November.

Welcome aboard to Stephanie Long. She has been doing a lot of research for the Rock Opera. Our current scene we’ve been looking for information on is the Boat of Charon. Anyone who has photos, please forward!  We found a great site here, http://www.lenntech.com/water-mythology.htm

We are headlining the Indiana Highland Games June 12th located on the IPFW campus in Fort Wayne.

Meeting a lot of new people on http://chatroulette.com/ Welcome aboard folks! We are working on our fourth album with a host of new musicians. Getting excited to headline the Highland Games this year for Indiana. March 17th we are playing a benefit in Fort Wayne. I was asked to write a song for a local hearing impairment clinic, people have told me it is my best work to date. I look forward to your being able to listen! Shine on friends!

As we embark on the new album and the next workings of the rock opera, our manager June McCullugh brought us out to witness Trans Siberian Orchestra last night. There was A LOT of hair and rocking out on the stage~ reminded me of a KISS show meets Vegas, great to see how many musicians one band can influence!

Our buddy Jerry Becker is the keys player for Train and they were on the Today Show this morning~ great to see the band back together ! Train, “Hey Soul Sister”: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5566571n

Craig Lyons has begun his paperbird project~ great to be on his team! http://www.craiglyons.net/

http://www.onemillionactsofkindness.com/ I am grateful to be promoting this man as well~ really beautiful and something we can all get behind. Rock on Bob and Bogart!

A great big thank you for all of you who continue to pray for these two little girls in their recovery process from Cancer~
