Ashley came out to our local radio station 15-or-so years ago for a "listener concert". Very nice man. While his warm-up band was playing, Ashley noticed my then-3-year-old daughter doing her "sugar magnolia" dance out in the lot. He gave her a doll. Bert from Bert & Ernie. She had no idea where the doll came from, just appreciated having a partner. The radio station had set up a stage in the parking lot and he nearly tore the thing down by stomping and dancing while playing that fiddle. By that point everybody was dancing, cars stopped to listen, snarling local traffic. Good times.

Am I crazy, or is the singer off-key? {#Sorry}

(Based on these noises, she is off-kilter fa sho!!)

Ugly cover art, kooky inaccessible music — I guess it's safe to say they're not sell outs.

Always have like Ashley, saw him years ago in a small club in Iowa of all places.  The energy he put into the show and fiddle playing was just amazing.

I might be part Scottish.......My mother-in-laws-husband was born in Scotland, but he was a Canadien when he died.  Bless his soul.

Not exclusively, but thanks for the notes on Scots in Nova Scotia. Guess the name gives a clue. Better known in the Southern US as the second homeland of the Acadian people. They left France due to famine, Nova Scotia due to British 'ethnic cleansing' (and some loyalty-to-the-Crown issues) and nearly left south Louisiana (in the sense of heritage) via the US Government English-only policy imposed in schools after draft efforts in WWI failed due to language and cultural communication issues.

The culture is thriving today, thank goodness, and great music continues to be made because of it. http://www.acadian-cajun.com/hisacad1.htm

This song rates just underneath "Who Let The Dogs Out?" on my list of All-Time Most Annoying Songs.

Had given it a 2 rating.  I've reconsidered... this pile of equine excrement deserves that number which is so rarely awarded by me... one.

I certainly don't want to be contradicting a native Canadian, but to my knowledge Nova Scotia was settled by Highland Scots kicked off their lands in the Highland Clearances (an early example of the obscene phrase 'ethnic cleansing'). I've seen monuments to the clearances in various villages which refer to ships sailing to the East US and Canada, including NS. I certainly wouldn't want to say that most of NW Canada is of Highland origin, because as you point out there are other provinces other than NS, but unless my info and reading is way off NS and Cape Breton are of Highland origin, and indeed Gaelic is being actively spoken and taught up there.

 
I think the correction is to your mention of NW Canada - that would be British Columbia. I think you mean eastern Canada (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, etc.)

I know of one teacher (Finlay Macleod, or Fionnlagh MacLeòid in the Gaelic) who gets a lot of business for his patented "Total Immersion Programme" up there. And, as I wrote, I was actually taught intermediate Gaelic last summer at the Gaelic college in Skye (the best place ever to study, absolutely stunning location) by a Nova Scotian.  It's awful strange hearing the Scots Gaelic in a Canadian accent...
