Title: David’s nickname--“The Founding Father?” Post by: Parker Gabriel on June 21, 2011, 07:51PM When I wrote the lyrics to “The Celtic Woman Story,” I coined a nickname for the composer and music director--David “The Founding Father” Downes. What do other CW listeners think of it?

I just chuckled and kept walking.

Does anyone know how to get accents? I hate spelling Mairead's name wrong... even when its right.... sorta. Title: Re: David’s nickname--“The Founding Father?” Post by: mattycakes on July 28, 2011, 08:24AM I like the name! ;D

If you mean that David D. is an expert at making a diverse group talent work together smoothly and beautifully, then I believe I understand. David D. knows how to make the whole greater than the sum of its parts- which is really saying something because the individual "parts" are pretty amazing to begin with! :)Title: Re: David’s nickname--“The Founding Father?” Post by: MáiréadFan on June 22, 2012, 06:57PM It suits him, I think, because he's always there, coordinating things, and we wouldn't be on this forum if not for him.
