- Hootenanny abstract "Hootenanny is a Scottish word meaning "celebration" and / or "party", most closely associated with Hogmanay[citation needed]—the Scots New Year celebration which, traditionally, is the biggest celebration on the Scottish calendar.With the Scots being one of the biggest groups of settlers in the Appalachian region of North America (bringing with them their whisky-making tradition and methods, leading to the area's "moonshining" tradition) it is not surprising that hootenanny became an Appalachian colloquialism, although it became used in early 20th-century America as a placeholder name to refer to things whose names were forgotten or unknown. In this usage it was synonymous with thingamajig or whatchamacallit, as in: "Hand me that hootenanny." Hootenanny was also an old country word for "party". Nowadays the word most commonly refers to a folk music party with an open mic, at which different performers are welcome to get up and play in front of an audience."Hootenanny" was also used by the leadership of early firefighting battalions to describe a "meeting of the minds" of higher ups or various department heads. The term has trickled down to working companies and is now used, with some frequency, at working incidents and other circumstances that require a focused discussion between key individuals. Most recently it was adopted for use during the annual Fire Department Instructors Conference.[citation needed] Logistics professionals for the conference employ the word to call together the required personnel needed to accomplish the prodigious assignments placed on them.[citation needed]".
