For years, I tried to purchase my tickets thru the various PBS stations.  Two main reasons.  1) Really good seats  2) Meet & Greet.

Then, I noticed that certain venues (including one close to me) moved the PBS tickets back to like the 12th row.  OK, still decent seats, but not the same, and the price didn't go down.

What I discovered is that to get orchestra pit tickets you had to be a "member" of the venue.  In my local case, being a member required a donation to the venue.

Then, back in 2024, I went to the Christmas CW show.  If I recall, I had to buy the M&G ticket directly from CW.

So I tend to think the main reason they are not partnering with PBS is money.   And by the way, that's how I discovered CW.  Was simply flipping thru the channels (cable TV) and found them.  Plus, everything on TV these days seems to need a streaming payment.

That is a really good question. Normally, we'd be seeing a PBS special and/or an album to promote. But the whole economy of the music industry is different now. So the album sales are less important. Not sure why they are not partnering with PBS at all.

This tour is a total mystery!

I was also thinking some of the unreleased (well... streaming only released) tracks from the 20th (e.g. Red Is the Rose).

Okay, it is Kate’s First Ever Tour with Celtic Woman, Her 1st Spring Tour Yes.

Although It’s Caitriona’s 1st Also… I know it’s a Big Kate moment here, but she could of said First Tour with Celtic Woman than Spring Tour since they are not acknowledging the other member with Spring Tour!

Obviously they’ll do Danny Boy, You Raise Me Up, Amazing Grace, and other classics, but what else do we think they’ll throw in? I saw an Instagram post saying that they might be rehearsing Orinoco Flow, so that sort of piqued my interest.

I bet there will be some new songs, like Caitríona’s An Chailín Alainn. But do we think they’ll revamp some forgotten classics?

I would want that so Bad!  ;)

If I had to guess maybe, because unless it ends being been a 20th Tour exclusive only that that new version of Spanish Lady is still new. I wish they recorded in a DVD performance that new version of Bean Phadin, it was so cool when Eabha, Megan, and Mairead boldy pointed in finger “She can go back to her Mother!”  ;D

To me, it's not unusual that a group keeps changing members, especially when, in the case of CW, they started like 20 years ago. 

Yeah, but what’s odd is how many people are leaving right now. This is just after Lloyd Butler left. It’s a bit jarring.

Various members announced that he was leaving in December. Lloyd posted John was leaving to start a family or something along those lines.

I didn’t know that. Huh. I’m glad I still got to see him live in December!

I wonder who’s going to be the new bagpiper?

Has anyone of you gotten your pirze yet if so let me know

Thanks

I got an email this morning saying that it was mailed back to Ireland somehow. He said that he’d arranged to have a replacement CD signed and delivered, so hopefully I should be getting it soon. I wonder if it would still be Tara, Ciara, Caitríona, Mairéad, and Muirgen signing it or if it would be autographed by Kate, Caitríona, Mairéad, and Muirgen. Either way, it’s incredible that I’m getting a signed CD!  :D

Now I just need to know what to do with my existing CD…the only friend that I know has a CD player is more into music like Fiona Apple, Phoebe Bridgers, or Lana Del Rey, so I’m not sure if she’d want it…I guess I could just keep the two CDs? Maybe I’ll pass it on to my siblings’s kids if they ever have any.
