Long’s Peak Scottish-Irish Highlands Festival, 09/12-13/09 – Reverb
September 15, 2009Weaving ubiquitously through all of it was the music. From so many pipers practicing simultaneously (a cacophony that everyone should experience), to the competing full bands on the field, to the large and small musician’s tents hosting performances with endless combinations of Celtic folk and rock, the music was as omnipresent as the cold gray that enveloped the entire festival. All of the tents seemed to breathe occupants, filling as the rains increased, and shrinking — albeit only lightly — whenever the sun attempted to break through.
