OK I'm still here for a few more minutes.....ready to go. Hey guys......don't run away with yourselves......your imaginations are running wild!  For a start, there will be no concert at the Rock of Cashel, the only place for an audience there is the wonderful Brú Ború Cultural and Heritage Centre which has a beautiful but very small theatre, a parlour for an informal séisún and céilí, a gift shop, museum and cafe. http://comhaltas.ie/locations/detail/bru_boruThe name means "Palace of Ború" where Brian Ború was crowned King of Munster in 977 AD and High King of Ireland in 1002. It was here that Saint Patrick demonstrated the Trinity by using the leaves of the shamrock.  Here is a description from the Comhaltas website:
"You round a 20th century bend on the main Dublin-Cork road and you are transported back 1,500 years.
There, standing proud of the plains, is the great 4th century fortification of Cashel - the stone fort. This was the seat of kings and mediaeval bishops for 900 years and flourished until the early 17th century. Indeed there was a settlement here from pre-Christian times, traces of which have long since vanished.
....................The great monument in stone has seen war and peace, scholarship and devotion over a millennium and a half. It is fitting, therefore, that once again, the great traditions of learning and art which kept the flame of scholarship alight in a Europe dimmed by the Dark Ages, should have an echo at Cashel today."
I'd love to see them play in my home County, so would Máiréad I'm sure, but they won't be playing at the Rock!
Maybe Semple Stadium in Thurles.........if we could guarantee good weather!  |

If, on the other hand, it is a compilation of classical music videos, shot in various evocative locations throughout Ireland (in the manner of Chloe's solo DVD), then this intensely Romantic edifice would be an ideal choice for one of the backdrops . . . |

Yes Anderpaw, that's the place I meant and while Maggie is right, there is no stage area there, they built that Slane one from scratch and I'm sure with the technology today, that it could be accomplished somewhere in that area and I'd love to see it used! *S*
So while it might be unlikely they'd use another castle as a backdrop, it's really not an impossible dream! *S*

I believe Orlagh made a request to not perform/release 'Shooting Star' until her next solo album is released.

After the splendour of Slane Castle, it would be a pity of the group were to be put back inside a concert hall for this film.
The most enjoyable video would either be another outdoor concert amid Romantic castle ruins, as Sassy suggests, or a compilation of classical music videos (in the manner of Chloe's solo DVD), with the girls filmed performing their songs in arch-Romantic and evocative locations throughout Ireland.
But at the same time, I was just thinking it would be cool for the girls to do the concert at the Helix, kind of come full circle. |
