Uncurs’d with caution’s fears;
That pleasure, basking in the blaze, Rejoice for endless years. (R.B)

    Hi @BertVerninsk do you know the event organiser? They could add this event to our listings here, and get more exposure for the festival!

    Hi @VisitScotlandMiriam

    I have sent an email to the birthplace museum. 

    'Good Evening 

    I hope you are well. I wonder if this will interest you regarding the new music festival which Claire Grant is organising for the 20th of August at the Robert Burns birthplace museum. After raising awareness of the gig I had read in the paper on the visit Scotland website, an admin on the site asked if I could contact you and I feel that this would be a positive thing to get involved in to promote this new festival of Scottish performance. 


    Would you be interested in filling in this short page of details to enable the Upside doon to be advertised on the site?
