Jim McVey & Zoe Alexander Videos @ Heather & Thistle Meetiung
Heather & Thistle Meeting, Jan 28th
Our next Heather and Thistle meeting will be held at 7:30pm
on January 28th, 2008 in Theatre of St. Thomas' Episcopal
School.
The Burns Club presentation to the Society will be quite
different this year. Instead of the usual live show, the
Club will be showing a selection of video material from
shows in the late 1990s in memory of Zoe Alexander and Jim
McVey, two of our stalwart members who died within a few
days of each other late last year. Jim was our video guru
and recorded quite a collection of material from these
shows, as well as being our resident "wee pygmy scraper" on
his fiddle in them. Zoe was a talented performer. As well
as showing video featuring both Zoe and Jim, we'll be
talking about how these videos were made and the laughs we
had doing them. This is intended to be a fun evening.
Please try to come along.

(Poster's Note: This year's downtown St Patrick's Day parade
will be dedicated to the memory of Jim McVey, as well as
to too many others we have lost this year.)

I had lost touch with my good friend Jim McVey and am so saddened by his passing. Does anyone know where he is buried. I'd like to visit and sink a wee dram or two in his honour.
