Poster images imported

Today I wrote and ran an Applescript that imported all the photos of posters into the record for that poster in the main Filemaker Pro database.

This makes it much quicker to look at posters and add information about them to the database.

In fact the posters themselves were not added to the database, as that would swell the database to an unmanageable size. Only pointers to the image files were added to Filemaker, but the photos are displayed within the database.

Carlos Nuñez party

Carlos Nuñez talked about his latest album, Un Galicien en Bretagne, and played a few songs in a very intimate atmosphere.

Since we saw him and his band two years ago they seem to have gained in confidence, particularly the fiddle player. Carlos' brother plays the drums and gives the group an energy that sometimes seems to be lacking in Celtic groups. Carlos played a long metal (aluminium) recorder which produced a very subtle sound, and his bagpipe playing was as marvellous as ever. I am sure he will be playing around the world for decades to come, but it is a privilege to hear and see him at the height of his powers.
