Where in the World is Celtic Thunder?
Happy mischief/gate night! Welcome to the capital of New York, guys! In half an hour, Celtic Thunder will be gracing the Times Union Center with a bring-the-house-down show. Maybe there will be some pranks pulled?
The CTG who usually does this has a busy weekend, and won't update this until monday.
so..
Friday, as I said, the guys have off. Happy Halloween to all!
Saturday, they are at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, NJ (my mom is going!!!)
And Sunday they will be at the Nassau Veterens Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, NY (random note: where I saw the Jonas Brothers once upon a time!)
Hope everyone has a safe Halloween!

And the winner is...
Thanks to the 41 people who voted on this poll. It may not seem like that much, but it is to two random girls who didn't expect more than 5!!
So, the results of "Favorite Damian McGinty song" are.... *unneeded drum roll*
Bird Without Wings comes in first place, Young Love comes second, Puppy Love third and Come by the Hills in last.
Thanks again to all who voted and be sure to vote on our new poll!

Tonight, our fab 5 can be found in Boston, MA at the Dunkin Donuts Center! Since she cannot think of anything to write about Boston, she will say that she went to Dunkin Donuts today and is reading the Crucible for school (which takes place IN Massachusetts). Vair, vair coincidental and unnecessary (:
If only she had gone to Boston Market....

New Poll Suggestions
I hate to say it, but the CTGs are at a loss for what to do for the next poll. We would love to hear any and all suggestions. Comment this post for a poll you would like to see on the CTG blog!
We have 30-something votes on our latest poll, so we expect at least one suggestion!
Thanks guys!

Fave Irish Munchies
This is completely random (ish), but one CTG used to live in Ireland and she wants to share the Irish junk food she loved there with the world.

#1 on her list is Taytos. Tayto is an Irish crisp (chip) company. They are credited for developing cheese & onion crisps (tied for first favorite flavor with salt & vinegar!)

#2 is Club Orange (or Club Rock Shandy, a lemon and orange mix). It's a soft drink with "real orange bits" in it! The slogan? "The bits inside make it come alive". Yum!

#3 is Mikado biscuits (cookies). It's a basic cookie with alternating white and pink marshmallows on top and jelly in the middle.

#4. Jaffa Cakes! A bit hard to explain. Its a round-ish cookie with chocolate on the top half. On the inside, there is this orange-flavored jelly thing. It's good!

#5. Lucozade: It's an energy/sports drink. Be careful, it's very addicting!

#6. Crunchie Bar (chocolate candy bar with honey comb on the indside!)

#7 Flake 99. Eat it plan or in a soft ice-cream cone, this flaky chocolate is amazing!
That's all for now, although there is so much more!!

Halloween Fun!
As you may know, Halloween originated in Ireland! Celtic Thunder has the day off! Anyway, the CTGs would love to know how you all celebrate Halloween!!
"On Halloween night in present-day Ireland, adults and children dress up as creatures from the underworld (e.g., ghosts, ghouls, zombies, witches and goblins), light bonfires, and enjoy spectacular fireworks displays – in particular, the city of Derry is home to the largest organized Halloween celebration on the island, in the form of a street carnival and fireworks display." (wikipedia.org)
See that, folks? Derry. That's where Keith and Damian are from (:
If anyone has any pics of cool celtic pumpkins they carved, or anything celtic and Halloween related, send them to celtic.thunder.girls@gmail.com! Don't forget to say whether you want them posted here or not!
Fun stories are also welcome!

Where in the World is Celtic Thunder?
Apologies for the lateness of everything! Stress galore for the CTGs :/ We'll get more interesting stuff as soon as we can!
Anyway, the concert is probably over, but CT was in Boston, MA at the Agganis Arena. Tomorrow, they get a day off as they travel to Albany, NY.
