Ay, lassie, indeed where are they?

I thank you. Enjoyed the visuals too.

There must be a full catalogue of songs from Scotland using Donald.

I recall Donald being mentioned in a risque tune sung by folksingers Gene and Francesca ca. late 1950s: Come under my Pladdie.

Here's the hilarious kilt-kicking piper himself, Craig Downie, performing Donald with the rest of Enter the Haggis!

Enter the Haggis just appeared last night at the Irish 2000 near Albany for all the New Yorkers here that may want to check them out in the future. Divia? If you like the Irish Rovers, check out ETH. Their tour schedule is on the ETH website at enterthehaggis.com. They frequently tour MA, NH, PA, and CT as well as NY.

No plaids with "The" Donald?

Well, here's a shameless plug for Enter the Haggis! Everybody should see Donald performed at least once in a lifetime - and then become Haggis Heads. Seriously, if you really like bagpipes fused with rock, bluegrass, jazz, and latin, then check them out.

By the way - Sean Connery looks so good in his kilt at the end of the Andy Stewart video that EC posted.

And I absolutely love the way 'Elvis' sings Donald. Try to picture Pelvis Presley actually rocking it out in a kilt. Way cooler than those tricked out Las Vegas jumpsuits he favored.
