Okee, okee so we missed a blog for July…ouch- August just snuck up on us. So first up we want to say THANKEE to all the fans who signed up on our email list and responded to the personal note sent by BOB HALLIGAN JR regarding the new Ceili Rain CD. What a blessing it has been to communicate with so many of you…
WHAT??? You are asking about the personal letter from BOB? You didn’t receive it? Uh oh…we certainly don’t want to leave ANYONE out…drop us an email here with I NEED THE LETTER” in the subject line and we’ll forward it to ya…there’s no doubt you’ll definitly want to see what it’s all about.
Now,although the gig schedule has been a bit light these days (we have no idea why though…we want to come and play…and we are affordable so if someone is telling you we are out of your ballpark…talk to us…we have options…its a big ol world out there…you need to experience a CEILI RAIN event up close and personal), our favorite songwriter has been busy, busy, busy as usual and some of his crafty writing is coming to light.
First up…if you’re a prospective attendee for the 2009 NCYC event to be held in Kansas City…you might be interested to know that BHjr’s version of the assigned theme song titled CHRIST REIGNS has been selected as a “final four”. Not sure how the youth will vote these days but we wanted to post it somewhere so everyone could take a listen to it. We are still wondering how Bob got a big Gospel Choir in his basement though-while we weren’t looking…hmmmm….you can check it out here…and let us know what you think… but be prepared to dance around the kitchen! www.shoutlife.com/ceilirain
On a more intimate level…Bob is currently featured on THE COMMONS, an online video one on one discussion of his song THE ONE currently appearing on the SpiritandSong website. This song offers a passionate way for us to learn how to pray for each other. Lyrically crafted yes…but his delivery is with true emotion (and in Bob’s true form that we all know and love). Now-viewing THE COMMONS is part of the SpiritandSong MEMBER PERKS program…so if you don’t have a user account-you’ll need to sign up to watch it…but don’t worry…IT’S FREE! Go check it out here… www.spiritandsong.com
All the joy to ya!
The Ceili Boys
