Title: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Mel on October 06, 2008, 07:50AM to ANJ tonight...It's the last show!!! :'(
What a ride!! :D... But The Story is not finished... ;) Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: cool2it on October 06, 2008, 08:06AM I was just thinking about that, Mel. I even emailed a friend that in just a few hours ANJ will have it's last standing ovation, which it so richly deserves. A huge thank you from all of us should go to all the cast and crew and especially David for bringing us a show that was beyond a doubt, one of the best ever produced. So from me, Thank you CW Ltd, PBS, everyone in the show and behind the scenes that made us all so happy for two hours when we attended and for all the hours we watch the DVD, and once again to the genius that is David Downes. We are now waiting for the new show and we once again will be in the audience and supporting all of CW with everything we have. Thank You for our-- " Journey" .

For someone who has followed them since 2004 when I first heard about the Helix filming, I know that wonderful things are coming soon. ;) The Celtic Woman Magic can never be duplicated. The magic will live on... Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Kimberly AJ on October 06, 2008, 12:02PM You mean that the show itself can air in the next two months?
Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: kathleen on October 06, 2008, 12:24PM Okay.....When I read this thread....I just thought of the Song ....Sentimental Journey ;D
Gonna take a Sentimental Journey, Gonna set my heart at ease. Gonna make a Sentimental Journey, to renew old memories. Got my bags, got my reservations, Spent each dime I could afford. Like a child in wild anticipation, I Long to hear that, "All aboard!" Seven...that's the time we leave at seven. I'll be waitin' up at heaven, Countin' every mile of railroad track, that takes me back. Never thought my heart could be so yearny. Why did I decide to roam? Gotta take that Sentimental Journey, Sentimental Journey home. Sentimental Journey Thanks to Everyone at CW. It was a great trip...and can't wait to Journey again. hugs kathleen Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Kelli on October 06, 2008, 12:34PM Oh, Kathleen, now I'm all misty-eyed...thanks a lot! :D

Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: CWFan2 on October 06, 2008, 05:45PM Ahh yes, Wow. What a ride the ANJ Tours were. Lots of wonderful memories. I have to admit, even though I attended 12 ANJ concerts, I'm gonna miss this. I could never get enough. I could attend 1200 and still it wouldn't be enough for me. The girls were great, just unbelievable!! Absolutely beautiful!! Ray and Nicky, phenomenal!! John, Des and Eoghan, incredible!! And last but not least, man, the Choir!! The Choir!! The best!! They are the best!! Everyone involved in putting this together, from the Slane Castle performances right through the current European Tour are hands-down the best!! I applaude all involved in this. It is a lifetime of wonderful memories.
A special thanks goes out to Celtic Woman Ltd for an incredible job, night after night, from the first note of the first Slane Castle show right on through the final standing ovation on the current European Tour. I think I speak for many when I say: Thanks For The Memories!! ... Bill Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: JRRacing64 on October 06, 2008, 07:11PM I'm glad to have been able to witness this show live and in person early this year. Thank you to the CW cast and crew for putting on such a wonderful show and giving their all every night the last few years to entertain everyone that attended the show and watched the dvd/or PBS airings. Can't wait to see where the next Journey takes us ;)
Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Emily! on October 06, 2008, 07:26PM So very glad that I discovered CW and was able to see A New Journey live. It was an amazing adventure, and though I only saw it once, it was something I'll never forget!
I can't wait to go on yet ANOTHER journey with the cast and crew of CW! :) Here's to 2009 and new beginnings! Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Conchobar on October 06, 2008, 07:56PM Goodbye to ANJ. For me aside from the wonder music, and great times I think what ANJ has really given me is a whole new group of friends. From Delta team in Atlanta right on through to today. I have had the priveledge to meet so many wonderful people. Always a good time, and the only regret is that sometimes I couldn't stay as long as I would have liked.
Here's to the new show, and all the good times to follow. Bob Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Bookworm on October 06, 2008, 08:47PM goodbye ANJ. :'( :'(
Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: White Rose on October 06, 2008, 09:37PM Oh wow. That's just... woah!
Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: hesprit on October 07, 2008, 12:37AM I discovered Celtic Woman because of "A New Journey" when I first heard part of "Orinoco Flow" when I hadn't changed the TV channel from the PBS station. I was amazed to hear it, even more so when I first saw Mairead performing ... and I was curious. I searched and found the next time it was to be aired and made sure I was watching and I fell in love.
Not long after I owned both DVD's, had introduced a number of friends (and a few strangers) to the girls and the music, and before long I was making plans to attend my first live concert ... front row, M&G on the very first try. Five months later I attended another concert, and it's now a well known standard that when I work, one of the DVD's (I have all three CW, THC and Hayley's) will be put in either before I open or as I'm getting ready to close. Nobody questions it, and the store manager even looks forward to it when we're working together. ANJ started all of this for me, and I have no plans of it stopping any time soon. I'll say goodbye to "A New Journey" with the wonderful memories of those live concerts and all the rest that has come along with it ... and I'll continue looking ahead for the next path to follow. I can't say it any better than others already have, so I'll simply say to all of the Ladies, the band, the choir, Ray and Nicky (come one folks, we all know they are their own entities in this group as well!) and most of all, to David and anyone else I've forgotten ... thank you all. Peter Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: Mel on October 07, 2008, 04:55AM Because of ANJ, I found multiple friends, the CW Sisterhood was born, with honorary members of Rich and Bob of course. My impromtu flight to Chicago...there and back in one day, just for a signing.. ::) ;). That dream I had about Chicago, before that, and thinking why the heck would I dream of Chicago, I had no desire to go there...<ROFL>, $3 bagles or was it $4?, Laughing ourselves silly till 3am in WPB, or waking up at 4am cause of the clanking pipes, me and Sara learning the Chicago transist system, seeing Wicked with Sara, going to Ireland for the ACC taping, getting chances to sit with in the first 3 rows a few times, getting to meet Chloe, Mairead, Meav, Orlagh, and Lynn several times, chatting with Julian and Amy. RICHFEST!!!! Bob in the Red Dress ;D....and on and on...
Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: zankoku on October 07, 2008, 08:38AM It isn't over, the Journey has just begun.
Jim Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: SusanZ on October 14, 2008, 12:19PM So many fantastic memories to keep because of ANJ - the wonderful concerts, new friends, new venues. WPB , Chicago, and Radio City Music Hall stand out for me. The Sisterhood....by the way we are coming up on our first anniversary on Oct.19th!! Then, it was RichFest in April.
It has been an incredible journey...but I think it is just a beginning. A brand new train is set to leave the station in 2009. Let's all hop aboard for another journey together! Zee Title: Re: Saying Goodbye.. Post by: rodzilla on October 14, 2008, 03:52PM It has been a great journey...I'm glad I was able to walk it and enjoy it with the ladies and you...greatest fans ever. On a happy note, on to the next journey. ;)
