You ask me to believe in Magic

Sensational.
That is one of the many adjectives that I could use to describe the Runrig Show.
Fantastic.
Amazing.
Epic.
Happy.
Those are just a few more.

Seriously though, I had high expectations for Runrig, and they exceeded them all. The venue was really interesting: it was basically a big ballroom with a stage set up at the front. But it was great because it meant that we could be really close to the stage, and I was essentially 3 rows from the front. it was awesome. But what was almost better than the music was when I would turn and look over my shoulder and see Robbie, Kersley, and Ewan singing and grinning like crazy- they were so happy. and I tend to get joy from other peoples happiness. Those guys are the reason I love Runrig and the reason I went to that show tonight. i owe them alot.

Of course, they encored with Loch Lomond. I had this nostalgic moment. I felt like it had all come full circle. I remember being at a disco at Oban High School with everyone on the exchange, standing arms linked in a circle-singing and dancing to Loch Lomond. And there I was, standing in a circle, arms linked, AT RUNRIG, singing and dancing to Loch Lomond. True story, I almost cried a little. It was another happy moment. Actually, it was a happy two hours.

And to make the night even better, we went to a Celidh at the Glasgow

University Union- which meant men and kilts and dancing (a lovely combination

if you ask me).

Until my next adventure,

Love always

You ask me to believe in magic
Expect me to commit suicide of the heart
And you ask me to play this game without question
Raising the stakes on this shotgun roulette
But you came to me like the ways of children
Simple as breathing, easy as air
Now the years hold no fears, like the wind they pass over
Loved, forgiven, washed, saved

Every river I try to cross
Every hill I try to climb
Every ocean I try to swim
Every road I try to find
All the ways of my life
I'd rather be with you
There's no way
Without you.
