Sorry I can’t be with you again this year, but i wish you all the best and look forward to seeing from afar.
Love this! 2nd year in a row! Now if only festival club could be streamed for those of us that can’t be there and really wish we could!!! Lol
Would love to be attending in person but watching from afar is the next best thing!
From Brighton Ontario ! I loved every minute of the concert in Port Hawkesbury , thank you so much , it was just like being there !
What and incredable concert tonight. couldn’t be ther in person this was the next best thing.
Last night’s concert was fantastic. It was a high quality feed, with an intimate feel. I, for one, am very grateful to you for making this a possibility. This is a wonderful opportunity to get the Gaelic Spirit “out there” to expand the audience base, and I don’t know very many people who aren’t captured by this Spirit once they are exposed to it, especially through a Cape Breton filter. My hats off to all the people that made this transmission possible. I truly miss my many friends down there, and shall be watching every night from my ring side seat.
Es ce que quelqu un peut expliquer comment écouter ou reecouter des morceaux de concert .jJe suis en france Bretagne et j aurais aimer etre en ce moment Au Cap Breton
merci

Moi, aussi!
Big Shout Out to the Asham Stompers esp to my handsome love David Raynor! We love and miss you. Have a great time at the Celtic Colours Fest! We are so proud of you!
Love your fam: Cohen, Crishay, Shaylen, Tia and of course your #1 Fan, Chantel!
Great show in Whycocomagh. Loved the Gaelic singer!!
Thank you, from Kanata, Ontario
This is a wonderful festival and I love the streaming of concerts. But, if it is Celtic Colours, why are not more Celtic cultures represented? I would love to hear a Cornish bard.
Many thanks for these live broadcasts. Thanks especially to my brother Frank Clifford’s production crew, including Cathy, Natalie, Bud, Mark & Beth.
We’re loving this in Taunton, England! Wish we were there. Sian and Jan
I have been waiting 15 years (!!) for CORNISH performers — musicians, singers, storytellers, dancers — to appear on stage at Celtic Colours and am disappointed yet again. Why have the Cornish Celts been ignored all this time? It isn’t for lack of talent! The Cornish are a people of long Celtic history with an old Celtic language of their own, and with great numbers of descendants all over the world, including U.S. and Canada. Can anyone explain what would appear to be a strange slighting of a Celtic nation? — Oll an gwella, Boyd R.
I have been watching the “live stream” nightly and enjoy every minute of it. Great effort by the people of Cape Breton in every aspect of the festival 2012. Tonight 10/8, I watched and when the Beaton Sisters Band played and the two fiddle players stood up and danced while continuing to play their fiddles… well that’s just awesome! From CT, USA Thank you and have fun everyone!
No streaming for Ipad folks……bummer
Sorry Bill. We’d love to be able to offer the streams in a format compatible with mobile devices but this is a major initiative and we’re going to need to walk for a bit before we can run. Hope you are able to catch some if the shows on a PC or Mac.
Great dance show Tuesday! Looking forward to as many shows as I can catch.
These shows are terrific for a senior who does not get out anymore. It is making me feel young again and the talent both imported and local is outstanding.Thank you so much for doing it.
Thanks so very much for providing the live stream…I’ve gotten to enjoy five (!) evening concerts so far…my very first viewing of the Celtic Colors concerts….not quite as good as being there but the next best thing! I really like how the camera persons focus on the foot work as well as the instrument playing. Many thanks to organizers, talent and crew!!

If ever I missed a live performance tonight 10/10 was THE ONE. Yes, I watched it streamed, but I should have been there! Cape Breton people… Celtic Colours 2012… very nicely done!
Smashing performance! Bravo!
“Celtic Colours”…without a doubt, one of the worlds’ premiere traditional music festivals. Nowhere else will you find an experience like this.

Thanks for the kind words James. Did you make it to the festival this year or are you enjoying from home?
I strongly feel that there should be a new Memorial Garden, located somewhere in the Heart of Cape Breton (tough decision…it’s ALL heart) where plaques and or trees could be placed for all the departed, and ceremonies held each time another cultural treasure leaves us. At the centre could be a large stone fiddle sun dial, with an eternal flame coming from the neck of the fiddle. I am extremely serious about this. What do you think?
We first came 6 years ago, and couldn’t be there this year, but the Live Streaming was the next best thing!! Just makes us want to come back again. Dave Clark, in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
Thanks for this opportunity to see & hear some wonderful music & dancing. I’ve totally enjoyed “being there”- wow! This week is a real treasure; keep up the tradition & the magic.
Truly enjoyed the live stream from Bell Cote this evening, exceptional music as always, would haved loved to be there, but can’t be everywhere. Thank You
The best live stream I’ve watched to date. Congratulations to Live OnLine Canada for their exceptional filming and technical expertise. It’s the best seat in the house.
The camera work and audio have been outstanding. Bravo!
Camera work and audio have been terrible. The close up shots created camera shake and what happened last night when Mary Jane Lamond & Wendy MacIsaac were on?
Sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy last night’s stream Jim. I’ll follow up on the points you have raised. Thanks for the feedback.

I stand by what I said last night. The camera work and the audio were superb.
(and free of charge, I might add,)
Every concert I have watched has been outstanding.

je nai pas pu tout suivre les concerts, es-que il y a une possibilite de le reeentendre par la suite because decalage horraire la france est loin : outre atlantique!!!
Interesting to hear the story about Paddy’s flute, Cady Coleman and the Endeavor – while the Endeavor is right now creeping through the streets of Los Angeles on its way to its final resting place on display at the California Science Center.
The quality of the live stream for the last two concert nights was GREATLY improved over the early week concerts…THANKS so much…I enjoyed evrey tune, song, dance!!!
Wonderful – I watched every show except – unfortunately – the first.- no complaints at all. (But yes, it would be harder for folk in the “wrong” time zones!
