21 FOR 21 AT 21: Wish #17

WISH #17: HOLD MY OWN CELTIC CONNECTIONS CONCERT.

Celtic Connections is basically Woodstock for Celtic, folk, and world music. They hold this event with days or even weeks of music and culture around January of every year in Glasglow, Scotland. Seeing that I can't afford to process my passport and buy my ticket for a trip to Scotland [yet], I'll just have to invite them over here for my own exclusive pleasure. :)

And yes, it starts with a bang with BAGPIPES.

RUNRIG must reunite with their old vocalist, Donnie Munro...

CAPERCAILLIE must regroup with old members...

LIAM O'MAONLAI with his bodhran and primal vocals must make an appearance, as well.

PLANXTY as well, with their formidable line-up of Andy Irvine (on mandolin/vocals), Christy Moore (background/bodhran drum), Liam O'Flynn (pipes/tin whistle) and Donal Lunny (bozouki)?

Of course, THE DUBLINERS' departed members (Ronnie Drew, Luke Kelly, Ciaran Bourke, etc.) must be resurrected and regroup with the remaining [living] members and give their venerable performance too...

Aaand JULIE FOWLIS must perform with her tin whistle too.

Of course, with special appearances of...

ENYA

U2

THE CRANBERRIES

THE CORRS

And that wonderful evening of trad and contemporary Celtic/Irish/Scottish music will be capped off by a big finale.

A BIG CELTIC-WORLD MUSIC FUSION FINALE!

Alba gu brath and Erin go bragh... And I love Celtic/Irish/Scottish music. :)
