I was looking for pictures of Lisa before CW and came across the video of the Special Olympics from Dublin in 2003. I saw Lisa, but I also came across Lynn, and I did a screen capture of her that I entitled "Riverdance Chick." That was 3 years ago before Lynn was part of CW.

Ya!!  That Special Olympic video is also on “The best of Riverdance” DVD as an extra. They gave the lead vocal to Lynn on that one and it was before an audience of 80+ thousand people. I’ve read a Lynn interview where she says it was her most memorable performance so far.

The Original five all had solo albums before Celtic Woman. I liked Hayley before she joined Celtic Woman.

The DVD's of riverdance!! Cheesy Mairead and Lisa, but mostly Mairead.... Cheesy

Wasn’t Mairead in Lord of the Dance, but not Riverdance? Anyway, I first noticed CW while channel surfing and coming upon the Helix show, and recognized Mairead as “that Irish girl fiddler” who I had previously been impressed with. I at first thought I was seeing one of the dance shows and left it on, but did not pay that much attention. I did get that it was a new show and group, which I filed away in my memory. The next time the Helix show was on (late night PBS fundraiser) I was much more attentive, and even woke my wife up, saying “Ya gotta get up and see this show!” She loved it and our fan relationship with CW kicked off.

I thought the same thing, that Máiréad has been in Lord of the Dance and Feet of Flames, but not Riverdance. Didn't she work on the soundtrack of Riverdance? Anyway, I discovered the ladies around 2007 or 2008. But I love the ladies' previous material for they became CW  Grin

Here is the Official Riverdance link that includes the Cloudsong video footage at the 2003 Special Olympics:

Lynn wasn't even a late teen, yet she is already a complete pro as you will see if you choose to watch. Also some very brief but good shots of Lisa K.

Saw Mairead live in 1998 in Paris when LOTD toured there. In fact, apart from Michael Flatley (and this disappointed many people), everyone who was on the video was there.

Bought Chloe and Lisa's albums along with Aoife's third CD.

Saw Deirdre on the Celtic Tenors german show.

Unfortunately, I didn't know who Hayley really was until I heard that she was joining the group. Then , I did my research, loved what I saw, and bought her DVD and CDs

Lynn: Riverdance 10th anniversary DVD.
