My famous little buddy “Mark” took a few moments out of his busy schedule to take a quick photo with the really famous Ashley MacIsaac in front of the beautiful Meaford Hall.
Then I heard … “John… I thought you said we we’re going for ice cream”. Life is sweet!

When Ashley MacIsaac burst on the worldwide scene with 1995s Hi, How Are You Today? (A&M) he scored the kind of coup instrumental artists often dream of. Going triple-platinum in Canada and breaking down radio barriers with the Gaelic single “Sleepy Maggie,” Ashley became an immediate pop icon, rebellious and exuberant, resplendent in kilts, army boots and combat pants. Copping from rockers’ sensibilities, Ashley made an aesthetic of it onstage, effortlessly blending his Celtic heritage with contemporary elements such as punk, electronica, hip-hop and grunge. Audiences who may have felt alienated by Ashley’s disregard of convention were instantly won over by his dazzling displays of grit, passion and authority. Recalls Ashley at the time, “My father once told me, “If you want to play the fiddle, get mad at it or don’t play it at all.”” Presented by Meaford Hall
