I was looking online for the haunting song in "We were soldiers once". The one when the Cav mounts up to head into Ia Drang at first I thought it was "Garry Owen" the units battle song but it turned out to be Sgt. Makenzie by Clann an Drumma, CR was the one that set me strait.

A Scottish co-worker / friend told me about this site. I was hooked on the first day! Now, this is all I listen to at home and at work. Too bad there isn't a way to tune it in on the car radio! biggrin.gif cool.gif

I love Celtic music and I am always looking on the net for radio stations that play Celtic music. I did a search and here I am. I want to add, in all my searches I have not found a better place.

I found Celticradio.net through RealPlayer search. I love it. I have heard so much old and new stuff. It's great.

Twas St . Patrick himself, sure, that set it;
And the sun of his labour with pleasure did smile,
And with dew from his eye often wet it.
It grows through the bog, through the brake, through the
Mireland, and they call it the dear little shamrock of Ireland.

Shoutcast. Three months.

New (to me) artists: Heather Dale, Mark Saul, Runrig, Twinflame, Wolfstone, Pipin' Hot, and others.

My tastes have broadened to a more edgier rock folk beat such as Runrig and Wolfstone and away from the more traditional folk such as the Chieftains.

Google is probably what I was using at the time. I remember that in 1998 a neighbor told me about Loreena McKennitt. I had heard Clannad before via my sister, and remember seeing the video for Enya's "Orrinoco FLow" on MTV but apparently didn't really know what it was. A short but well spaced sequence of events got me addicted to Loreena, and further encounters got me facinated with what little Celtic Music I could find (Next CD I heard being a cassette of Celtic Pride I). I remember that once I got a 56k modem ~1998/1999 I started getting curious about Internet broadcasts and found RealNetworks which at the time was a great place for New Age and several other styles of music not heard on the airwaves around here. I remember listening to that at work when I was at Rio Grande Fence from April 2000 - Mar 2001, and I remember it didn't have any Celtic stations. With how much new music I was finding, I decided to try and find a Celtic Internet Radio station. I found this really cool station that my modem could keep up with called Highlander Radio. Listened to it for a while, then forgot about it for a while as it got lost in the shuffle as do so very many websites. Fast forward to... Ohh when was it, I'm guessing August of 2002? No, I was working; wait I had a temp job in 08/02, same place as my mom... Files show as around May of 2003 (Might have been slightly earlier, screenshots stamped 05/31/03). That puts me working at EDS. Could be about right. Anyway... I got to wanting Celtic Internet radio again and remembered this one site I had found once before and rather liked, but dangit what was the name of it??? Time for the ever faithful Google. I started clicking through the results looking for whichever one it was I remembered of Highlander Radio, or CelticRadio. I found one that had one name in the URL and one in the site itself... Was this the one I remembered? A little bit of browsing and I was convinced that, yes. I took note of it this time and came back a few times in the next week to tune in. Then it became more and more routine.
Anyone remember when it looked like this:


I became a regular listener, and then discovered the forums in Early september. I had already ordered Emerald Rose's Bending Tradition because of it (A tough sell to someone still leary of buying things off the Internet) I signed up, and here I am today.

I have since met a great many wonderful people, and discovered a wealth of Celtic Music. My search led me here, and this site has been a Godsend. It has been exactly what I originally set out looking for. A place to learn about and discover more Celtic Music. I have gained a lot more from this site by now, and I feel that things are nowhere near an end. I will continue to learn things from this site both related and not related to the music and the site's intent. Paul has done a wonderful job here! cheers.gif

Barkeep! Pull a cold one for Paul here would ya? Put it on my tab!

It was Celtic Rose who introduced me to CelticRadio! She and I were both members of a Scottihs Gaelic learners forum. As a result of some bad things that happened on that list we became friends. It took me forever to find it! I was looking for CelticRadio.COM instead of CelticRadio.NET! I think Rosie thought I was intnentionally avoiding joining the group! biggrin.gif

Thanks Rosie! I've been a member since March and its been the most fun Ive had in a LONG time! smile.gif

I believe that it was a Google search for Loreena McKennitt after I heard "Bonny Portmore" in the movie "Highlander: Endgame" while watching it on TV that led me to Celtic Radio. I've been a member for just under two years I believe.

this is by chance
let me tell about the history from 98
I started to search scottish style music radio
and I found Spinner (under Time Warner)
after that, netradio.com
and after I got winamp at 2000, I found shoutcast.com
and I curiously key in "celtic" and in return cleticgrove
once I got cable in Fort Drum, I started to run celticgrove over FM broadcast
around 2002, returning from Kosovo, and after re-installation
I found celticgrove is dead
then I search again
this is the beginning...highlanderradio
however, I had been inactive (just listening and running over FM at late night) until end of 2003
and I go to the site, to find some ppls have similar music favor, then I signup to be a member
that's it

hey, I am waiting for T-Mobile launching unlimited EDGE
once it's launched, this'll be great news
highlanderradio goes 100% mobile!
not only running modem stream over GPRS (sorry, GSPlayer don't support mp3pro), or need a hotspot to listen 64k
