"ABC" Stirling Castle was not...
a Band Aide's recollection of an incident there

Extensive restoration work was being carried out at the castle and hence much banging and clanging as Curt and his concert band played in the nearby abbey.  As the lovely sounds wafted out of the door some of the sightseers went into the chapel to listen, others were hesitant until we, who were on the outside in the courtyard, assured them that there was no admission charge.  A good crowd was gathering and then Maureen began to sing.  The banging and clanging stopped and three of the workers came over to see what was happening.  One went into the chapel and the other two remained near the doorway. 

When Maureen finished her song, they returned to work. however, it seemed about 20 minutes later that six of the workmen returned and went into the chapel - hard hat in hand - and stayed until the end of the concert.  Maureen did sing one more song: "My Heart Will Go On" and the crowd seemed to enjoy that.  

To me, a lowly band-aide, that appeared a great tribute to Curt, Maureen and all you clever musicians.

ABC anyone?         Elizabeth Nash
