Celtic Woman 20th Anniversary Tour / Wonderful show the other night!
« on: April 29, 2024, 06:39:59 PM »
Hello everyone! I posted this a week ago but my image was having trouble uploading. Thanks to CWazy Tom and GlennS, they got it going! I wanted to post the original post so that those who have not seen it may be able to read it.

I'm new around here. My name is Ashlyn Keller and on the 18th I got to see my very first Celtic Woman concert! It was such a special evening and I was praying the whole time that somehow I would be able to meet the members. It actually happened! I've looked up to Mairead since I was about 14, and I was able to meet her after so many years of waiting. We took a picture together, and after I nervously asked, "Can I ask you a somewhat personal question?" She looked at me, grinned, and replied, "It depends..." my question probably came off as weird... I should've rephrased it. I began, "I know your dad passed away a few years ago. What kept you going?" She looked at me, smiled, and said, simply, "Music." She then proceeded to ask if I had gone through a loss. I explained I had just lost my father in July, the same month she had. She looked at me and earnestly said, I'm sorry for your loss... and even before we parted, she looked at me and apologized again for my loss. I didn't reply because I didn't know what to say... I was so shocked. She was so kind in taking a few pictures with me and even signed my program, as did the rest of the members. I went to look at it later that night, and, to my dismay, I was unable to make out what she had written. The other members signed something like, "lots of love," or something similar. I can't read what she did write but I know she didn't write anything like that. Can any of you all read it? Hello everyone! I'm new around here.
