Canadian fiddler sells rights to music on eBay

A Canadian fiddler who answered the question “What’s beneath your kilt?” on Conan O’Brien in 1997 is now bankrupt and auctioning rights to half his future earnings on eBay.

“I’m not David Bowie, I’m not Madonna, I’m not Eminem, I’m Ashley MacIsaac, so to set a price at that (C$1.5 million), I thought, was fair market value,” he said.
