Old Rabbie Burns @ Oran Mor
The man of the moment is not, as you might mistakenly be thinking, Barack Obama (we are sooo over that shizzle), but a 250 year old womanising ploughman from Ayrshire... This Year marks the 250th anniversary of Robert Burns' birth. Oran Mor is holding a mixed night of music from Moira Kerr, Jimmy McGregor and the Sirens of Titan Choir, comedy from Karen Dunbar and actor David Hayman performing 'The Immortal Memory' to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Burns' birth, complete with a traditional Burns supper... AKA Haggis, neeps and tatties!
The Burns' celebration night is on Saturday 24th of January at 7pm, the event will will also be previewing 10 unique and witty paintings illustrating Burns’s epic poem, Tam ‘O’ Shanter, by artist and author Charles Nasmyth.
Oran Mor, meaning the 'great melody of life' or 'big song', is a cultural centre and meeting place in the heart of Glasgow's West End. Inside are two bars, two restaurants, a nightclub and stunning private event space available for hire in a fab looking converted church, formerly Kelvinside Parish Church.
The Place is going to be in full swing by 12 dark with a Ceilidh bringing us into early Sunday morning! Im thinking, tartan skirts... men in kilts... and plenty of drams-a-drinking.
Anyone joining me?- Date: 19:00 - 24/01/2009 to: 19:00 - 24/01/2009
- Address: Oran Mor Top of Byres Road, Glasgow, G12 8QX

Sorry I missed this event, sounds good. Oran Mor is usually pretty good for a night out as well.
That’s put me in the mood for some Haggis!
