The name of the band dates back to 1982 from the time of the first concert in Malmoe.<br />Our keyboardplayer bears the beautyful old Danish name Rosencrantz (which means Rosary in scandinavian languages), she is also one of the lead singers in the band - I havent asked her but she would surely wear this tartan with dignity!<br />Using a St Ninians tartan would link many threads in the history of the band and of our personal history - just like a tartan is woven...<br /><br />Is there any possibility to achieve this?Lars Agetorpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12175305.post-84042033610193418002010-09-17T00:33:01.659-05:002010-09-17T00:33:01.659-05:00The warmth of the tartan was a glowing symbol of t...The warmth of the tartan was a glowing symbol of the warmth of that Scottish welcome for the Holy Father.
