You make a lot of sense , Misha.
Uh oh...I make sense to you? Lay down, take some Advil and make sure you see a doctor if symptoms persist Hmmm.... maybe its a case of good minds thinking alike ? Could very well be!

My apologies for the double post but I want to bring this thread back on topic and also the forum keeps crashing if I try to modify my post.
I have to also say that I love the balance of slow and fast songs that has been achieved with this setlist. I'm happy that they didn't sacrifice Parting Glass for YRMU, TAR for Nil S'en La, or Granuaile's Dance for Shenandoah or Coast of Galacia. Also very pleased that Awakening and Nocturne are still on the set list. They provide a nice contrast to each other and I love them both. Speaking of balance and contrast. Did you notice that each act has 1 instrumental solo? (The New Ground in act 1, and the bodhran solo in Act 2). It's a nice change of pace and gives us a chance to fully appreciate the beauty of two more Irish instruments besides fiddle.
I find it interesting that at least the way it looks right now, neither Mairead solo from Believe is on the setlist. All her solos are older pieces. I'm a bit sad that we don't get green grow but I suppose it's a small sacrifice.

A little off topic... but I like your avatar- is that a scene from "The Golden Compass" by any chance?

For my first concert, I like the setlist. I'm thrilled that TAR and Nil S'en La will be performed! I was wondering why they had both Ceili dresses in a backstage picture! I'm pretty pleased with it! I can't wait until April 6th though!!!
yeah! ANd see you in CLEVELAND!! !!

Am I crazy for putting these songs in setlist order in my iTunes to try to get an idea of what the show will feel like? And what journey the girls and David are trying to take us on?

You make a lot of sense , Misha. I was thinking along these lines too. Although "Believe" had a number of Celtic tunes , there were also a number of non-Celtic as well. I have enjoyed both, of course. And in SFTH - "Fields Of Gold" and " Goodnight My Angel" being among my fave pop covers, but by and large, the Irish melodies have mostly been my favorites. My only personal "contraindication" is that I will have to force myself to keep an open mind concerning "She Moved Thro' The Fair" and "Dulaman" which I previously have considered "Meav" songs. I know the current gals will do a fine job- I'm just stating a personal bias that I'm fully aware of. Truth be told...my Celtic Cuties have never disappointed me. James, have you seen Lil' Lambe sing Dulaman live? She adds so much to it. I love her movements, playing the spoons on Ray's shoulder, getting in Ewan's face and pulling his ear.

There is no Lambe like our Lil' Lambe. Mairead Carlin is the real deal.

*excitement factor for me increases by about a million* Actually I DID see Lil' Lambe do "Dulaman " at the last spring concert in St. Paul. She was very charming, of course. I can't restate enough what a total sweetheart she is. Very lovable.

Defiantely excited! The only thing I thought of is what would happen if they come to a city this tour that they didn't last and someone was waiting for them to come and liked all the songs on the cd dvd and expect that at the concert?? Especially since they cut some of the goood ones? Thank goodness i pushed to go to radio city and saw the old set list their! So I hope when they bought the tickets that they know that they changed it alittle or they wil find out soon enough!! I for one know I am getting excited!! and it was just a thought!
