- If you are going to choose to perform in kilts, you have to understand that anyone watching is not going to be focused on your music, but rather on what you do or do not have on underneath the kilt.
- The audience was full of shrieking middle-aged women, along with an occasional grouping of men that I'm guessing were gay. Actually, come to think of it, it reminded me of a Cher concert, but with much less glitter and skimpy ensembles.
- One of the guys has a ginormous cold sore on his lip and all I can think when I see him is HERPES! HERPES! YOU HAVE HERPES ON YOUR LIP!!! Please consider taking some of your (apparently quite large) budget for hair products and invest in some Abreva and/or quality stage make-up.
- It's pledge drive time again at PBS and I feel very strongly that every time they say "If you would like PBS to continue to offer quality programming like Celtic Thunder . . ." everyone should have to shout "From down under" and take a drink. Not that I drink. But still, it would be an awesome drinking game.
- If your only choreography is marching in place, along with an occasional fist pump when you sing something particularly pro-Ireland, then you might want to consider just not doing it at all. But still wear the kilts, though. Always wear the kilts.
They just did some other dance moves that caused two things to happen: 1. there was much shrieking and hands-in-the-air clapping from the audience and 2. one of the guys (the one with the long, luscious locks, I think) appears to be wearing brown shoes with gray pants. I'm simply stating a fact, not passing judgment. Well no, actually I am in my mind, but you can't hear it, so it doesn't count.

LOL, I just saw it tonight and had to do a google search to see if anyone else thought herpes. I liked your synopsis. Thanks, Kim.
I found your blog searching for Celtic thunder herpes also lmao!
It seems like the search "Celtic Thunder herpes" is getting you a lot of hits, it is how I found your blog also!
Celtic thunder herpes brought me here too.
O.k., I think this is officially my most popular blog post ever. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who was distracted by the cold sore!
Over a year later... and searching Celtic Thunder herpes got me here too. I think the herpes are even bigger this year, it is practically bleeding.
kim you are a riotous tart. Too funny. i march in place and fist (in pants) to your wit.
Congratulations, you are my new favorite person!
These guys can sing (with the support of auto-tune and lypsynching). They can walk down stairs. But wait ... they can also walk from one side of the stage to the other!
It gets better. They can walk UP the stairs. Wow. And then, wonder of wonders, they walk and sing at the same time. As the grand climax of the show, although it may seem impossible, they all walk down the stairs, and sing ... at the same time! With autotune, no less. An amazing display of talent. How do they manage it?
They have one of each age, perhaps intended to appeal to women and girls of all ages, but as it turns out, they all appeal equally to 45-60 year old women and 20-40 year old gay men. Except Chirpy O'Herpes. The gay men are not impressed with his revolting lip sore.
I, too, found you after looking for Celtic Thunder herpes. Here we are 2 years later and he still has the confounded thing!! Maybe now it is just a scar--no herpes could last that long!
Five years after your original post, I too got to your blog after Googling Celtic Thunder herpes.
Herpes aside, they really are terrible. I loved the description of their ability to walk from one part of the stage to another.
Herpes truly are the gift that keeps on giving! It makes me exceedingly happy that people are still commenting on this post years later.
Here, The Christmas special that gets more special every year, and brings others together in search of Celtic Thunder Herpes, I too have found the blessed holiday post that speaks of the wonders of herpes, Lip synching, and Abreva. Happy Holidays!!
As my fiancé and I watched in horror and listened to the mutilated Christmas songs that we once held dear, my fiancé repeatedly commented that he was aghast by the poor lip synching performance and how sad it was that PBS had gotten into the business of fabrication of quality programming. However, I was able to rob him of his dismay as I pointed out the petrea dish that was growing on the left side of one of the near pubescent Celtic Metro Boys. The next 30 mins as we endured one horrored song to another , we mused, commented, and debated where is the makeup artist???
So, yeah. I’ve seen this Christmas special before, and I cannot believe that I never noticed the herpes sore on that one guy’s bottom lip! It’s really a huge turn-off! All that I can think about now is the fact that all of these guys are just a bunch of man-whores with a ton of little groupies following them around for sex. Basically, someone has been placing his mouth in unsavory places, LoL!
At least they aren’t asking for my money this time!
Well it’s 2018 and happy to report your blog still pops up for Celtic Thunder herpes ;)
