Saturday Concert Pictures
The Saturday concert, emceed by Lawrence Cameron, began at 16h in the outdoor amphitheatre at the Gaelic College; it was moved indoors in the MacKenzie Hall dining area about 18h05 due to the dampness and threatening inclement weather. I had a front-row seat for the first part of the concert and therefore got pretty decent photos; for the second part of the concert, I did not have such a choice seat and had to shoot from the side of the hall, back some distance from the front, with the result that the heads of those seated in front show prominently in some of the photos. Moreover, the performers were placed in front of windows whose outside lighting confused the camera somewhat. So, take the photos for what they are: my best attempt to capture what was going on at a live event, not professional photographs.
The Performance Listing below reflects the names I heard and wrote down at the concert, but given my lack of acute hearing, what I present here may well not be what was said. Moreover, I did not get all of the names and I apologize in advance to those whose names I have shown as question marks, mis-heard, or misspelt. Thanks to Sharon Cameron for supplying me with a number of the missing names. Corrections are most welcome: use the feedback link to notify me of any errors.
