Title: Ancient Land Sizzle Reel
Post by: CWazyTom on October 31, 2018, 08:01:27 PM
Here's the Ancient Land Sizzle Reel!
https://youtu.be/M2W-7N_2-ak

Looks like they might be going with mostly night #2 footage.

In terms of production quality of the sizzle reel itself, it has some of the same shortcomings as the album teaser: it switches away from each song too quickly and the transitions between songs aren't very smooth.

This is going to be fun to watch in a few weeks!

I'm a bit nervous about a few things though...

Firstly, how is seeing it on PBS / DVD going to compare to being there live? It'll bring back some great memories, but being there was a special experience we'll likely never have again. It's going to be awesome to watch again, but I don't think it could ever feel as special as those two nights we were there live.

That fog could really wash out the castle in some of those shots. It looked pretty cool live. Hopefully that will translate to the TV screen though. I was kind of expecting there to be a lot of night #1 shots so they didn't have to contend with the fog. I think it's going to look great (fingers crossed). Mairead seemed to love it, so I guess it must have turned out looking (and sounding) great.

It does look like they're going to end the PBS special with Going Home as we suspected. It's definitely the night #2 finale too, which should be super-spectacular!

Now that the critic / pessimist inside me has reacted to it...

... Time to look forward to seeing the most awesome show I have ever witnessed in my life!

It was truly amazing to be there in person while they recorded it and I hope you love it as much as I did when I was there. It was sooooo good!

Sucks that its only a 30 second teaser! Usually its like a 5 minute teaser! Hope a longer one will be coming! Cant wait for it to come out on DVD/Bluray! My PBS station will not be playing it so the DVD will be my first opportunity to see it! :(

It's still hard to process we were actually there. It still feels a bit detached from reality, like a dream.

I feel exactly the same way. Still can't believe we got to have this incredible experience!

This can't be the full Sizzle Reel. Seems like a small teaser trailer...

Happy you guys got to go! Wish I could've gone.  :'(

Dan's in there too in the bank of bleacher seats to stage left. I think he got more air time than any of us. LOL! Helps to be facing the cameras.

I didn't see her on PBS, but we can still look on the DVD! I don't remember if anybody else already mentioned it here, but on PBS we do see Meav, Glenn & Ronan!
