HELLOOOO St. Patrick's Day!

St. Paddy's day will be celebrated on Sunday, March 17th, 2013. We've done it again this year and successfully cloned ourselves so that we can play all day long and all over town.  So, come on out and see us!  We'll start playing at lunchtime and early afternoon at Opal Divine's Freehouse, Marina, and Penn Field; and at dinner/early evening at NXNW, and Opal Divine's Marina. We will be playing at many other venues; please reference the schedule below and come on out and have a good time.

STPD has been making a run for the border the first weekend in March for the past several years to participate in Hidalgo’s International Music Festival known as Borderfest.  The band has been so well received that we have fans from all over the nation, Canada and Mexico who seek us out every year!

Sunday, January 27, 2013, saw Silver Thistle Pipes and Drums commemorating the immortal memory of Robert Burns. Peter Reid, a native of Scotland and current Texas, gave the toast to Robert Burns intermixed with some spicy humor. We had the traditional toast to the Lassies and the Lads as well. The haggis was piped in and Torf recited Burns’ thorough poem touting the benefits of consuming copious amounts of the Scottish treat! STPD unveiled the Cairncross Ceilidh Band as well as played some of our well-loved, and even some new tunes, on the Great Highland Pipes.
