 Sam Milligan offers the following information about himself:
  
 "I'm Sam Milligan, known to my fellow historical re-enactors in the
Society for Creative Anachronism, [SCA, a worldwide organization of 
 Medieval re-enactors,] as Lord Padraig Ruad O'Maolagain, 
a 13th century Irishman. I have been playing guitar and singing since I
was fourteen. 
  
 "Although today I concentrate primarily on folk music, most of that related to 
 the Medieval era..., I have played everything from heavy 
 metal to country and western. While spending over eight 
 years in England when I was in the Air Force, I became interested in English folk
music, some of it dating back over 500 years. This turned out to be very
useful when I got involved in historical re-enactment about 16 years ago, and
I decided to take on the role of a bard, or minstrel.  
  
 "I enjoy playing and singing for my three young grandsons as much 
 as I do for a group of historical re-enactors in a Middle Ages tavern. 
 I have taught the oldest, who is four, several songs and a few chords on the guitar, 
 thus making sure I have someone to carry on the tradition."
