once again rotc visits (sunny) glasgow; as ever our bff’s roddy & samba ya bamba help out with guest players and logistics, and big brother luigi (bottom r with hat) takes care of us italian style. the job? 2 days playing before olympic women’s football at hampden park (inlcuding n korea flag disaster), then merchant city festival parade accompanied by a BIG blue man that walks, and 2 steamy nights @ boteco do brasil, scotlands number 1 (and only) brazilian club/bar/restaurant/hang. whilst a team of 10 took care of most of the gigs, we had 27 for festival parade and stage, a good turnout thanks to mega-bus sleeper who delivered weary sambistas overnight from london. a good time was had by all + a few deep-fried mars bars.
