    Off-Kilter...

    Last summer my boss brought in Off-Kilter's first CD for me to borrow, and once I listened to it, I was hooked. I especially like the track with "Farewell to Nova Scotia" & "Scotland the Brave"; the latter is great when the windows are down and the sun-roof is open on the Honda! :mrgreen:

    My mother-in-law went to Florida in Fall '04 for a conference in Orlando, and stopped by the Canadian pavillion in Epcot and picked me up one of the CD's.

    The piper is in Nova Scotia tartan -- makes me want that in a kilt even more! ;)

    I was the one who originally posted about them, btw! :mrgreen:

    Their web site is: http://www.offkilter.net.

    Cheers,

    Todd

    They are absolutley one of my favorite groups. I saw them at an Irish festival a couple of years ago and bought a CD. I love the CD, but it does not touch their live show.

    Off Kilter

    I saw them they were pretty good I bought their cd Celtic Armadillo I was the only one in the crowd wearing a kilt. I was surpised that they are better live then recorded. Too bad they don't tour in Canada.

    Nice call on these guys my friend!

    They appear in the northeastern USA quite often at festivals and games. They're also funny as all get-out!!! I was able to play a set with them in Maryland, and the energy that they have is immense. I was very impressed with the post-gig spread, and their ability to throw back liquids. MY KIND OF BAND!

    They will be playing at the Grandfather Mt. games next week end.

    I'll try to get some photo's of them to post.
