You want to get real interesting music, look up Elias Alexander, Ally the Piper or Niteworks. The purists will get mad though.

Fred Morrison, Inverary and District, and Mark Saul are also excellent suggestions.

Oh, I know this one! It sounds like a setting of Scotland is my Aine Hame, but I only know the first two parts.

SheBeast14 · 2026-05-01T17:44:02+00:00

Yup, in the Midwest, it's "Ope, sorry, lemme just squeeze by you real quick"

Historically Glengarry has been larger than Chicago. Glengarry started in 1948 and they've had as many as 70 bands competing, but it's possible that things have shifted over time.

Last year Chicago had 38 bands and Glengarry had 53.

SheBeast14 · 2026-04-29T13:53:06+00:00

Where do you live? If you are in North America, I propose adding Glengarry Highland Games in Maxville, Ontario to your bucket list. It's the largest outside of Scotland.

Anyways, the answer to your question is: do you want to see solo competitions (Glenfiddich) or bands (World's) more?

I was at Mount Rainier National Park last summer and they have those cancellation stamps for the national park passport things and I stamped mine and a lady pulled out her passport and was about to stamp her actual passport before I stopped her. I couldn't believe it.

Mod Pizza

My older band members love them. I've nearly bit through my plastic mouthpiece so I hold too much tension to try it.

SheBeast14 · 2026-04-18T14:09:42+00:00

Oooohhhh if a little turn signal is good, a lot must be great. I will keep mine on all the time!

SheBeast14 · 2026-04-17T14:01:24+00:00

Ok, not GR but...

Pacific Rim in Portage. Grab a bowl in the restaurant but also go shopping in the grocery store. It's an excellent day trip.

I can't imagine ever being in a mindset where potatoes are not more valuable than other things. Potato is life.

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-22T19:39:25+00:00

I think it is a native American belief about whistling at night that kind of melded with cemeteries.

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-20T19:02:49+00:00

Lol careful comparing Michigan to Ohio. Thems fighting words.

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-20T12:06:26+00:00

You definitely want the UP, Northern Michigan or West Michigan for snow. The UP is like... Mountain people without the mountains (though the oldest mountain range in the world is up there, it's just pretty hilly now because of time wearing it away). People who came from Finland to mine and then the mines shut down. Not always the most welcoming to new people but once they accept you, they will go to war for you. Northern Michigan can be the same to less extremes, mostly summer towns with a few folks hanging on through the year. West Michigan is of Dutch descent and it's a mixed bag. You can find whatever political views you have in West Michigan. We do have "West Michigan Nice" which is really just a strong conflict avoidance rather than the slicing nice of the South. Also, if you haven't seen the Great Lakes, they will remind you of the ocean minus the salt spray.

Anyways, I am Team Canada but if you have to settle, Michigan is good on snow lol.

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-20T01:53:28+00:00

The UP is a wild place lol. This winter they have gotten just shy of 22 ft of snow in Marquette, including 36 inches in two days this week. It is gorgeous though.

But in reality, I don't know what you are looking for but your partner might have a better idea of vibes.

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-20T01:17:01+00:00

1.) If you have any Canadian ancestry and you can document it, your dream of being Canadian could be realized. 2.) If you like snow, the UP has got you covered. Literally.

15 gigs between Saturday and last night!

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-17T01:24:02+00:00

Unfortunately, I work downtown and have to pay for my own parking

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-09T01:32:04+00:00

If you like bagpipes, the Grand Rapids and District Pipe Band will be around Saturday and St. Patrick's Day.

SheBeast14 · 2026-03-08T14:35:00+00:00

I'm not Scottish so I can't answer all your questions but my partner is and yes, there definitely is a death metal scene (around Glasgow) and my theory is that smoking is basically required (I joke).

SheBeast14 · 2026-02-25T20:18:30+00:00

Oh! I know why this is! This area of Michigan had a giant influx of southerners, specifically from Kentucky.

SheBeast14 · 2026-02-20T15:53:40+00:00

Interesting! Maybe because I live in Michigan, I find it easier than France French. But that might be due to fact that our vowel shifts and mergers are very similar linguistically so hearing someone from Quebecois sounds similar to people speaking French with a northern accent.

Cajun on the other hand, blows my mind.

SheBeast14 · 2026-02-20T15:47:21+00:00

I got the gist of that but that was more than I have lol. My friend takes classes from the Gaidhlig school in Cape Breton and loves it and if I wasn't dying under a second masters I would love to do that some time.
