Sharon's 2nd Blog about the auditions

posted by Ryanne81

Hello,

There still seems a lot of misunderstanding about the auditions. Aside from my earlier explanation, I should probably point out that we auditioned the 5 guys for Celtic Thunder in February 2007 for the tours u first went to in October 2008.

It takes time and effort to find talented singers, it's not something u can just do overnight.

We discussed doing this last year, while we were out on tour actually. Phil and I have just been too busy to even get started on it. This is the first stage in a process to find talented singers.

It's not yet relevant. The first releases haven't even been...

A Celtic Thunder Dictionary

posted by QueenVictoria73

I took all the silly little words we use, made official sounding definitions for them, and put them in alphabetical order. There are only ones in here that have been used before, which is why there is no term for George fans, tell me if u know one. I hope it makes u laugh! If u think some of the definitions are wrong, tell me, please!

Baby Braces~ A term of endearment referring to Damian McGinty. Not an extremely well known term. It originated from musikluver94.
By the Busses~ If one is not able to obtain meet and greet passes, they must wait outdoors near link enduring the weather for...

Sharon Browne's Blog-Auditions for a 2nd Celtic Thunder Group!!!

posted by Ryanne81

Hello,
I see there is lots of speculation on the auditions coming up in Ireland. So, I'll give a little meer information here.
Basically we have done a deal to release the original "Celtic Thunder - The Show" in Europe, Asia and Africa.

As a result we will have to tour that original toon as it will be a couple of years before the releases in those territories catch up to "It's Entertainment".

These territories want tours of the "Celtic Thunder - The Show" that we toured here in 2008.
I'm sure all the CT fans here would be less than impressed with us disappearing from North America entirely to break...

Celtic Thunder Tour UK

posted by Winifredina

OK, the last few days have been a roller coaster for me - honestly!
I find this fantastic group and enjoy their muziek immensely. I've played u Tube all dag and still want more! Then, we visiting their website to find out if they intend to visit us in the UK (London, Norwich, Birmingham etc), I find George died tragically last year, I'm in tears - what a man and singer he was - so sad now. But the website still doesn't answer my vraag - When will Celtic Thunder come to Britain please?
Over a jaar geleden Sharon stated she was working on it but nothing since, why are we waiting I ask?
Have the group lost their hart-, hart when they lost George? Do they sing with the same ol' Irish heart? Have they taken on soooo many new songs, that the old Celtish muziek is being pushed aside. I do hope not.
The best of their muziek lifted my hart-, hart and made me sing, when no other has done before. Please. Someone. Answer me!

Celtic Thunder artikel from Irish Echo

posted by musikluver94

October 1, 2008 When it comes to Celtic Thunder, producer Sharon Browne and songwriter/composer Phil Coulter have captured lightning in a bottle. Their year-old male vocal group's self-titled debut CD premiered at No. 1 on the Billboard World muziek chart and millions of people have already seen the ensemble perform via PBS and DVD.
Now, hot on the heels of their seconde album, "Celtic Thunder: Act Two," which was released Sept. 16, the quintet is preparing for a 48-city U.S. concert tour, which kicks off Oct. 3 in Binghamton, N.Y., and wraps up in Chicago on Dec. 17.

I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For--LYRICS

posted by Ryanne81

I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like a fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes I'm still running

u broke the bonds
And u loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Oh my shame
u know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

“Wow, Keith, this strand is stunning. I can see why your dad chose here to buy a timeshare.” “You like it?” Keith looked back at her, grinning uncontrollably. “How could I NOT like it? It’s the prettiest strand I’ve ever seen in Cali.” “Yeah, I love it a whole lot. The waves are perfect for us surfers, too.” He gazed out at the horizon, taking in the view and sound of it all. Chloe was looking around for the strand house, but couldn’t find it. “Um, Keith? Where exactly is the strand house?” Keith looked...

Coming Soon - It's Entertainment!

posted by Ryanne81

Overture and beginners please... Strike up the band... Stand door for Celtic Thunder... and "It's Entertainment."

This stylish and high energy trip through some of the great songs of the last 30years is pure showbiz! It is a tribute from Celtic Thunder to the legacy they have inherited from the great entertainers of the past, and a mark of how far they themselves have travelled as performers, in a few short years.

It evokes an era of big bands and boulevards, top, boven hats and tails and singing and dancin' in the rain! It makes for irresistible listening as the principals from this generation pay their...

Two weeks flew door very quickly, and excitement stirred within Keith and Chloe. They spent time looking for houses for Chloe, packing Chloe’s ornaments and pictures, moving out the furniture, and, of course, spent time with each other in the parks, beaches, and even outdoor malls. Chloe was so happy that she grew so much closer to Keith during the two weeks she had left in LA, and Keith was happy he had Chloe all to himself for those two weeks....

It was one of the groggiest and restless nights of her life, and Chloe was not happy it ended, because the new dag just meant new time to mourn internally throughout the entire day. Admittedly though, she was a bit anxious to see cheery and jovial Keith once again. Somehow, being around such a good friend made her hart-, hart feel intact and whole, despite the way it was when she wasn’t around him. She got dressed and prepped herself for the day, then tiptoed out of her room to see whether of not Keith...

It was dark outside, the moonlight glistening off the thick foliage and flowers around the outside of Keith’s home. Ryan parked up in the already filled driveway, and popped up the romp, kofferbak so he and Keith could grab the luggage. “We’re here, Chlo!” Both Keith and Ryan screamed out with joy simultaneously. Keith opened Chloe’s car door for her, helping her get out. “Thanks, fellas, for that exciting statement of obviousness.” They chuckled, “No problem, Chlo,” Keith nudged her, “ Just making sure you’re not overwhelmed yet door Ireland.” “Me, overwhelmed door Ireland?!

Celtic Thunder - An Amazing Group

posted by musikluver94

Celtic Thunder is one of the most talented groups in the world. Their members range from age 16 to 40 and they bring a variety of voices into their act. Damian McGinty was only 14 years old when Celtic Thunder recorded all of the songs for the live toon and now at 16 he has a voice which sounds well meer experienced than a teenager. The romantic rebel of the group Ryan Kelly is now 30 years old and brings character and exitment into the group. A professional actor, he knows how to work the crowd with his firey romance scenes. A kid at heart, 40-year-old George Donaldson brings a peacefulness...
