The 2008 Conference is being hosted by the School of Scottish Studies/Celtic Studies Depts at the University of Edinburgh, so that's George Square in the Capital, nae far from the Festival Theatre, Nicholson St., in Newington. (map link)Here is the low-down from Wilson McLeod of SSS:
The dates we are proposing are 11-13 April, which is just before we return from the Easter break. The idea would be to begin on Friday around teatime and then break up in the middle of the day/early afternoon on Sunday, so as to allow participants from elsewhere to travel to and from Edinburgh.
So, if you want to come, email Wilson on: wmcleod@staffmail.ed.ac.uk or w.mcleod@ed.ac.uk
There's soooo much to do in 'Auld Reekie' as it's also known, so we could see if they'd organise a ceilidh for us. There are plenty halls and things that could be used, so pass your suggestions on to the Edinburgh team. As far as I know, Wilson is going with these dates.
Hope to see everyone back again!

Good-oh, now remind me, who spoke about Bellowhead last year? I have been converted!! They are FAB!!! Have been playing them on my student radio show. Spiers and Boden also play with Pete Shepheard, who we know from the Ballad conf.
