Den hyggelige hvalros er den stedlige krofatter.

Læs her en ung tilskuers anmeldelse: Ian Bruce at 2006 Edinburgh Fringe. Like many other young urbanites, I have a natural suspicion of folk music. More than anything else: the idea of bearded men playing obscure Celtic instru­ments brings to mind scenes from 'The Wicker Man'. I've generally given the whole genre a wide berth, yet Ian Bruce's show could almost tempt me to change my policy. The informa­lity of the gig made me feel thoroughly com­fort­able, despite being a gene­ration or two younger than anyone else in the audience, and I left with my curiosity kindled. His hour-long set was thoroughly engaging, blending tradi­tional music with modern Scottish com­po­si­tions, and the tunes are still stuck in my head. More­over, to my relief, there wasn't a human sacri­fice in sight.
