The Ceilidh Bandidos played (02/05/09) last night in the Victory Hall, Benderloch, Argyll, Scotland. This was a family ceilidh for a fairly new community arts organisation called Arts and Culture in Ardchattan. There was maybe not as many folk there as we the organisers would have hoped, but those that did come were full of enthusiasm. In-between the dancing there was an ‘open-mic’ feature with an excellent selection of performances from young, local musicians, singers and dancers. A special mention should be made for a very young laddie (maybe 6 years old) from the North East who ave a fine performance of Katie Bairdie.
We wish this fledgling organisation all the best for the future and would ask that you can supprt hem in the future by attending their events. I don’t think they have a website yet but I will add a link as soon as they have one.

This was an Easter ceilidh in the Easdale Island Community Hall, North Argyll.
I (Stephen) lived on Easdale Island for 11 years until only a few weeks ago, so it was a wee bit strange to go back and play for a dance (which i have done often) but not as a resident. I had guests staying so I had to leave after the gig, which was a pity cause it looked like the party was going to carry on into the wee small hours. Continue reading »
