Every year Gung Haggis Fat Choy attracts media attention and finds new ways to explore cultural diversity. Here’s a look back at 2008.
There were a number of media articles prior to the 2008 Gung Haggis Fat Choy dinner event. We were mentioned in the Vancouver Sun, Co-op Radio, Georgia Straight, and Shaw TV’s “The Express”. On Robbie Burns Day, Todd was interviewed on Rock 101’s Brother Jake Show with Vancouver councilor Raymond Louie, then with bagpiper Joe McDonald, Todd and Joe performed and excerpt of their “Haggis Rap” for CBC Newsworld television.
