Celtic Thunder

Are there any fans of Celtic Thunder on this forum? I think their shows are a bit cheesey, but I really enjoy most of their music. Unfortunately, their most recent concert Storm is nearing rock bottom. The music is actually worse than It's Entertainment and the show is absolutely horrible. Why can't they stick with singing Celtic music which is what they do best. I'm starting to understand why several of the members are moving on from the group.

I'm looking forward to more solo albums from Paul Byrom.

I didn't say anything about Celtic Thunder being authentic or that I didn't enjoy other celtic groups, just that I enjoy a lot of their music.

If their format was to simply stand in a line and sing I suspect more people would enjoy listening to them.

I have one SACD with the Chieftains, but I can't say that it's one of my favorites.

The only Horslips album I have is "The Book of Invasions...." which is a good listen.

Thank you
