Enter the Haggis performs "One Last Drink"
Haggis (or “sheep’s pluck”) is traditionally a mainstay among many Scots, but is perhaps not so easily stomached by the rest of us: An acquired taste, to be sure. Toronto band Enter The Haggis has aptly chosen this name, since they and everyone who hears them knows they rock, but do it Celtic-style. Listening to this lively band made me want to grab some spoons and join in on the fun. They keep up a constant flow of energy throughout their sophomore record, Soapbox Heroes (UFO Records), mastering instruments such as the fiddle, which is a shining star on the album, as well as the bagpipe, whistles, harmonica, and mandolin. This flavorful quintet comes to Neitzche’s on Friday (May 4) for a 9pm show
