Skirt Cafe is an on-line community dedicated to exploring, promoting and advocating skirts and kilts as a fashion choice for men, formerly known as men in skirts. We do this in the context of men's fashion freedom --- an expansion of choices beyond those commonly available for men to include kilts, skirts and other garments. We recognize a diversity of styles our members feel comfortable wearing, and do not exclude any potential choices. Continuing dialog on gender is encouraged in the context of fashion freedom for men. See here for more details.

When asked 'Why the Kilt?'
I respond-The why is F.T.H.O.I. (For The H--- Of It)
Nice videos! Perfect timing on posting these links. I'm a pipe organ technician and the Arlington Theatre is one of our clients! In fact me and my boss are currently in Santa Barbara working on a project for another client. Small world, eh?
To think - this guy is 'technically' and amateur but certainly doesn't sound like one.

I am sad to report that my computer speakers do not do justice to the performance. The tiny little speakers just are not the same as hearing the performance live.
A wondrous device to be sure, and it has three manuals more than my old Bechstein. Rather more pedals, too. That's a talented youth and very versatile with it. Fortunately my music technologist son furnished me with a wonder-lead...a means of plugging my laptop into my 6-channel home stereo, so I can literally fill my drawing room full of that sound, and what a thrilling sound it is. I also did it with Rick's De Jazz Vu snippets from their website.
Playing one of those must convey a certain sense of power.
