Taken from that pic of Emily clinging to the stage...... One nice touch we have all noticed......the silhouette of Máiréad on the stage curtains.

The best silhouette in the whole world! One of my favorite parts of the set!

OH, this was such a wonderful review - I WANNA GO !!! Come to California !!! Emily that was such a fabulous job, and what an incredible experience for you and everyone! I can't believe how much LIKE ME you are Next time I want to be there, even if it is in Fla. and Emily, you can sit on one side of Rich - and I will sit on the other - then we'll see how patient he is Honestly, I was like that at the concert I went to last year - I think I was the only one - I wasn't on the forum at that time, so I don't know if anyone from the forum was there or not (Palm Desert, May) - but I was just as crazy, thrilled to see Chloe, Orlagh, and Mairead in person - but crying inside because Lisa wasn't there. (mat. leave), but I didn't know that until I joined the forum! Then I was happy I found the forum address in my programme and joined right away after that. I didn't get to M&G though - next time for sure, and I will be right in the middle of the front row screaming and waving and giving thumb's up to them all with YOU Emily !!! Thank you so much for making it LIVE!

We have members telling us to go to Arizona, California etc.....it won't happen! WPB is WPB. Y'all will have to come on down! Emily lives in FL and goes to College here...she is working hard to get her long black robes and white wig, so I don't see her going to CA. I live in Orlando and will not go West. (Well, unless FEMA sends me to Texas again!) The Orlando concert is usually at the Amway Arena, 10 minutes from my door, but I will never go there again......I would rather travel to a class venue like the Kravis Theatre, 165 miles from my home. That is quite far enough for me to travel to a concert. I once drove 620 miles to a CW concert.....with two good friends, Jerry (the horse trainer) and Kathy (who died last Oct). It was a wonderful concert in a park, we could have literally reached out and touched the CW Ladies.......we had a lot of fun, but I wouldn't do it again. Plus I got a $180 speeding ticket on the way home. Dave and I have been invited to the Richmond VA concert but we won't be going.

Great Review! You're so lucky to have met Lisa and Alex. I would have loved to have met Chloe or Mairead but meeting any of them would have been a real treat! I'm so glad you had a good time, as I did as well. And the audience was really insane that night, lol. Were they really dead on Friday? Guess because it was a week night. Anyways, glad you had fun, and I cant wait for the next tour!

Yeah, unfortunately I won't be flying across the country for CW anytime soon, unless the parents want to give me a loan, and seeing as how they're graciously helping me out with the good ol' law school tuition, I'd never ask! I'm confined to FL for the near future when it comes to CW, but after the fabulousness of this weekend, I don't think I mind!

On the subject of traveling to shows, and to Richmond, and keep in mind I know little of travel.... But I once thought that I might have to travel there, so I checked into planes, trains, automobiles, and buses. Seemed I didnt have a good direct route in any way. Planes, trains and buses all hit Phily or DC first, then required a transfer to another trip. And even if I drove, the route was strange. Would need to go east, then turn south. Or if I wanted to be daring go south, then take smaller roads east.

Em, thanks so very, very much for your review, it was awesome to read!!! Once at least, I've been in the front row, and I whole heartedly agree, there is just absolutely nothing like it. It is truly the greatest way to experience a Celtic Woman concert. And I might just have to find my way to WPB to join in Mission Mairead!
