Phil
and Aly on their 20th Anniversary Tour,
played a stunning concert on a beautiful
evening at Raemoir, 4th August 2007.
The second
Raemoir concert of the year saw 600
visitors pack the lawn in front of the
hotel for the return of Aly Bain and
Phil Cunningham. Hilarious tales
and fabulous music held the audience's
attention for well over two hours.
The friendly upbeat atmosphere was
tangible as the hotel welcomed guests
with their picnics from as far a field
as Boston, USA and South Africa.
The Raemoir
concerts are a matter of great pride to
the hotel; staff make no distinction
between a concert goer outside, with
their own picnic and refreshments to
those staying in the finest room in the
house, everyone is warmly welcomed
and given plenty of assistance.
The Banchory Scouts were once again
greatly appreciated as they ferried
picnics from the drop off area to the
lawn using trolleys from the Raemoir
Garden Centre. Donations and a
raffle in the interval for a luxury
night for two at Castleton House Hotel,
the sister hotel to Raemoir helped them
raise over £450.
David
Webster, owner of Raemoir said 'Our
sincere thanks go to both the Banchory
Scouts and the Garden Centre, the level
of service they help us deliver is
widely recognised as unique in the ever
increasing market place of outdoor
concerts. It just goes to show the
strength of the Banchory community.
We were delighted to see everything go
so successfully, a great many people had
an excellent evening here.'
