Never heard of brigadoon before. Thanks.

*shock* Enjoy it,  

I've never heard of 'Brigadoon' and I live in the Scottish Highlands 

I read the wiki before, it's a good article, it had this tidbit.

Lerner's name for his imaginary locale was probably based on a well-known Scottish landmark, the Brig o' Doon (Bridge of Doon). Other sources suggest that the fictional village's name was constructed from the Celtic word "briga", which means "town" (such as in the old city names of Segobriga and Brigantium) and the Scottish Gaelic "dùn", which means a fort. The name may also be a reference to the Celtic goddess Brigid. However the simplest explanation remains the most likely.[citation needed]
