Last Friday a ceilidh was held in Castlebay Community School performed by secondary pupils. There were 22 different performances all together with instruments such as the pipes, piano, fiddle, accordion, drums, electric chanter, and singers. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The ceilidh was opened by the pipes followed up by 11 other acts until the halfway break where you could have sweeties, cakes, and coffee. The second half was opened by the pipes and then the ceilidh was finished with everyone playing together the song called \u201cClose to Home.\u201d <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There were three clear standout acts. \u201cDancing on my Own\u201d was sung by Seumas MacLeod with real passion and emotion. The Ceilidh Band played \u201cJig Runrig\u201d followed straight up by \u201cKenny Gillies.\u201d This put everyone into a happy and lively mood. At the end of the ceilidh everyone was thanked for coming to the ceilidh, and there was a big thanks to Domhnall Ban for coming over from Uist to help with the pipers, a big thanks to Aoghnas and Elaine for helping with all the sounds, and a big thanks to Angus Brendan. The ceilidh was closed by most people playing \u201cClose to Home.\u201d This sounded fantastic and was heart-warming, everyone was touched by it and the ceilidh was ended beautifully. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, a big thank you to Lisa for everything: setting up the concert and helping us prepare for the concert throughout the past weeks.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
