Bob Blair & the 'Levellers Ceildih Band'.

[Dick Glasgow]

Here's a wonderful photo, sent in by new member Bob Blair, of the The Levellers Ceildih Band playing for public dancing in George Square, Glasgow in 1985, as part of the Mayfest celebrations.



The line up then was

Finlay Allison - fiddle
Bob Blair - concertina
Gerry Burns - whistle and flute
Miller Frondigoun - accordion
Dick Burger - Bass Guitar

Many thanks to Bob for this fascinating photo.

Bob, I notice all the Auld Men sit, while the young men stand, in that band! ;D

If anyone else has great photos of Concertinas in action in Scotland, please don't be shy, we'd love to see them.

Cheers
Dick

Aye, I can nearly remember when I was like that, too!

No thanks Bob, I must admit, I always sit down myself when I'm playing, whether in a pub sessions or for Ceilis.

Cheers
