Celtic Thunder!


Yesterday, I got to go see Celtic Thunder, a musical group from Ireland.  They aren't so much a band, as a group of performers, the kind that you might see on PBS occasionally.  I must say that they were absolutely spectacular.  The quality of their performance was beautiful, including everything from the lighting and sets to their perfect voices.  They sang songs to please everybody, from their traditional Irish songs, some even sang in Gaelic, to covers of popular American songs, including Viva La Vida by Coldplay.  Each of the men has a different style of singing and a completely different voice, so each of their solo songs were completely different and they were picked to suit that particular man's voice.  It was a fantastic performance that caused the audience, the majority of which was over the age of 60, stand, scream, and cheer as if everyone they were at a Beatles concert.  It was amazing, to say the least.  I wish that it had never ended.
