We travelled to Hermaness in the Isle of Unst together. There, Adam Priest told us a story about a Viking king who almost died after his ship was stormed in Unst and was helped by a local woman. Years later, the Viking sent her a bounty on account of her courage. The Revellers performed at the Baltasound Hall and on the next afternoon, near at the helipad near the old RAF radar site.
