The sighting of three of AGOFR's leading stars in the Crown Public last Saturday has sent shock waves reverberating through the spines of the organisers of this years Hebridean Celtic Festival. A hastily released press release from the Festival committee stated that the Festival would indeed carry on despite rumours that the long awaited Midges Of Rock 2003 was about to take place, resulting in the failure and bankruptcy of the Festival as music fans flocked to the Scout Hall instead.

 

The MOR rumours started to spread around 9.30pm on Saturday night as Dead Ollac, from The Guireans and Jason and Wattie from the Dun Ringles were seen in the Crown in deep converation, accompanied by three scantily clad (ie no bobban jumpers) groupies.Speculation was rife that the three of them were about to hold a Press Conference as Iain X was earlier seen staggering along in front of the Heb clutching a microphone or possibly a fish supper.

 

Before any announcements could be made the three stars were whisked off by taxi accompanied by the groupies to an undisclosed location (Grimersta, Sandwick and Knock) leaving the music world on the edges of their tractor seats.
