They didn't perform the Titanic song, however. I have been busy with my love. We just got engaged this past Sunday. I have also been posting on other boards. I'm enjoying my summer. I had an awesome time in Phoenix in May. I am returning to Phoenix to be with my fiance when he visits his mother. |
We're going back to Phoenix in October. I forgot to post the month when we were returning. Unfortunately, I can't remember nor find a way to edit my posts. |

QUOTE (Siobhan Blues @ 24-Feb-2005, 01:14 PM) | Okay, did anyone else notice how Jesus was noticably present at the Grammy awards?!? I loved it! I have no idea who Kanye West is, but when he started singing his nominated song "Jesus Walks" I sure sat up to find out... this song is about life's negative side and how people need salvation through Jesus. Kanye won both best song and best album (rap) for this number - think of what a 'plug' that is for Christ!
Then the best pop performance for a group went to Los Lonely Boys, a trio whose sound is Hispanic/country/rock - now I had already gotten their album and love it because there is some FABulous guitar there. In the liner notes I'd been pleased to see them blatantly talk about their faith & Christ... but the song they performed on the show and won an award for is called "Heaven" and it actually is a prayer to God about waiting to get to heaven!! Awesome. I love these guys!
Best rock performance went to my beloved U2's song "Vertigo" which is brillant indeed for its perfection as a rock song you simply can't resist dancing to... it doesn't talk about God, but whoever buys the album 'How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb' because they like the single is going to be slapped upside the head with Jesus. 'Yahweh' is about - you guessed it, Yahweh! So many of the other tunes talk about faith & salvation & God in our lives, the album is even talked about in the press as being U2's most explicitly Christian album yet. Now that's what I call 'being in the world but not of it'.
I am so painfully aware how decadent our world is, how morally decrepit it is becoming, and how as a society we are spiraling downhill at a dizzying rate. It almost depresses me to see how bad things have gotten, and as my talk of Jesus often falls on the deaf ears of people so naive as to think that whatever we each choose to believe is true just because we want it to be... but then I see others taking a stand for Christ out in the public arenas and I realize that there are a lot more Christians out there than I know about. It's encouraging!

Amen! |

Aye! I know, I have not been here for months. I have been busy on the other board, that I am a member of. I did see Gaelic Storm in Concert on June 11th. Unfortunately we didn't get to see the Titanic song! They played their last song, and we just left to beat the crowds. Oh Well! I did get a T-shirt! |

QUOTE (Shadows @ 22-Jan-2005, 12:27 AM) | Considering all the "New testament" scriptures what was the message Jesu was trying to get across to his followers.
I am not looking for bible quotes or speculations... just the answer to what was the message that was to be spread. |
He came to die for our sins but also to teach us about how we are to live and love. He changed people's lives. |

QUOTE (WizardofOwls @ 12-Apr-2005, 12:01 AM) | Just wanted to let everyone know that I found out today that The Rising is actaully only the first book in a prequel trilogy! Cool! I thought the series was over, and now I have three new books to look forward to! Four if you include the sequel that won't be out until 2007 (I believe).
Also, there is a new, 10th anniversary edition of Left Behind on the market. It includes a fold-out timeline of the series as well as intervies with Jenkins and LaHaye and other features. Rest assured I will be buying a copy this week!
I wish they would come out with a book they could call The Left Behind Companion. In it they could provide plot summaries for all bollks in all 4 series, as well as detailed looks at all of the major characters. It could serve as a combiantion Left Behind Who's Who, atlas, dictionary and encyclopedia, detailing all of the people, places, and events in all of the books. It could even feature a comparative timeline showing where the events in all 4 series occur in relation to events in the other books. Maybe someday! |
All sounds good to me. |

Aye!!! I love them on the movie Titanic! I did a search on the web just a week ago to see which band played in the movie Titanic. I found out ir was Gaelic Storm. I then got the idea of taking my boyfriend to some Celtic festival this year, since he and I both love the movie Titanic. I decided to check out the site of the Potomac Celtic Festival. Lo and behold, I found out that the night concert at the Potomac Celtic Festival stars Gaelic Storm. My boyfriend and I are going to have such an awesome time! |

wonderful for you 3 Ravens! What a great experience and you get to be with the wonderful band. Let us know all about the evening, ok? when does this all occur? Have fun and keep us posted! |
I've worked for them too. I helped volunteer at the Potomac Celtic Festival in June 1999. I will be going as a customer this June with my boyfriend. Aye! |

QUOTE (3Ravens @ 12-Aug-2004, 07:45 AM) | OK guys, back up 20 and punt! Are we talking Iona, the Christian praise group, or Iona, the Celtic trad group? My money is on the latter, given this site...... If so, the lead singer is Barbara Ryan, and she is a super nice person. They are based outside of Washington, DC. |
Aye! You got it right! I think both are great! I was wondering the same thing. I know. it's easy to get the two confused. |

I'm not sure where the band is from (though I believe they are Irish), but I know that the singer's name is Joanna Hogg. I like Iona too and look forward to hearing more of their music! Thanks Mac! |
Aye! You're talking about the New Age Christian Group! I love Journey to the Mourn and Woven Cord as well as Open Sky. Aye! |

QUOTE (WizardofOwls @ 19-Mar-2005, 10:37 AM) | Some of my favorites:
Far and Away - Good stroy, I just get irritated that Tom Cruise's fake Irish accent comes and goes. If you've got to fake it, at least try to keep it through out, Tom! Sheesh!
The Secret of Roan Inish, and The Seventh Stream - I've lumped these two together becasue they are both about Selkies, which I adore! Both are excellent. I highly recommend them!
Riverdance, and Lord of the Dance - Still wonderful after all this time!
Braveheart - Wonderful movie!
A movie to avoid like the plague - Druids - I was SO disappointed in this movie. I t stars Christopher Lambert from the Highlander movies, so I thought it would HAVE to be good... Boy did I get fooled! ABSOLUTLEY HORRID acting in this movie. I've had several people tell me that the plot of the movie was good if you can get past the acting. Well, I couldn't... maybe you can... |
Aye! I love selkies! I like The Secret of Roan Inish and Seventh Stream! Three Ayes for Braveheart! |

Aye! I love Titanic and Braveheart! My favorite scenes on Titanic include the part when they are dancing to Gaelic Storm and when the Celtci music is playing while they are being chased. I also like the secret of Roan Inish, about the selkies. |

I love being kind to people. Although I can't remeber everythng I do at the top of my head. I remember picking up a cell phone yesterday for someone who droped it on the escalator. I dedicate my life to doing things unto my Lord. I enjoy especially being good to my honey, whom God sent to me for me to marry. It is God who bonds us together. |
