Caledon - Perth Theatre 31/08/07

Perthshire Advertiser 14/09/07

In terms of a rip-roaring, kilted thigh-slapping, sporran-swinging night, Caledon fitted the bill.
Striding on stage they didn’t look like three tenors. They looked like a farmer, rugby fly-half and a pint-pulling landlord all dressed up for a hogmanay party.
But then they opened the night with a heart-swelling version of Highland Cathedral which blew the packed Perth Theatre away.
Hailed as Scotland’s Three Tenors, the first half was like a beefed up White Heather Club with the charisma of the late great Big Man himself — Pavarotti.
Scots favourites, such as Bonnie Dundee, Caledonia and Roaming in the Gloaming, were given a makeover by madcap musical director Michael Barnett - the man manning the piano.
But it was the voices of Caledon which stole the show.
In the second half, the trio changed into their technicolour lion rampant kilts, donned sporrans that looked like extras from Sesame Street and belted out a high energy musical montage to Scotland’s modern day stars which included tributes to Wet Wet Wet and Franz Ferdinand.
The night came to a roaring, staggering crescendo with Caledon’s version of the Proclaimers’ anthem ‘500 Miles’ to wrap things up.
For me, the first song of the night — Highland Cathedral — was the real winner and one which I would part with my hard earned cash to hear again.
