tattoo tonight


Not this but it they are lovely yes?

Not this . Taken at Paul McCartney's concert..

Ha, this!
The Nova Scotia Royal International Tattoo at the Halifax Metro Centre. The world's largest annual indoor show. 2000 performers. A spectacle of music, pomp and grandeur, did I say spectacle? I love the massed bagpipes with the lone piper at the end. The Scottish blood in me thrills to the reedy sound.
PS. I am probably one of the few people I know that doesn't have a tattoo.

Great photos. I performed in the Tatoo twice when I was younger as a dancer. Both times they made me a boy while my cousin always got to be a girl with beautiful old fashioned dresses and bonnets :( This show is spectacular and we rehearsed starting in February for it. Alot of work but so worth it :) Enjoy the show.. love those bagpipes!

No Tattoo for me either. So you are not the only one

Okay, I admit it - I totally fell for this. I thought for sure you were going to get a tattoo! Maybe a temporary one, but still ...

Enjoy the bagpipes!

I have wanted one for years. I just don't know what to get. Irv hates them, which only makes me want to get one more! HAHA! I'm thinking a lizard or some kind of peace thing or I have no clue..

Ha! This is funny-I currently don't have any tats, but now I want three! Also, I'm not Scottish (German/Irish descent) but I've LOVED bagpipes since I was a child! That sounds like a super awesome show...
