    I was sad to hear of George's death. May he be rewarded by eternal peace. I thank God for George sharing his talent with all of us. My prayerful support to George's family and to his Celtic thunder "family". Peace from, Sister Connie Harkin SSND (a former Glaswegian!!)

    It is so amazing how you wear your heart on your sleeve. Y’all all had such a special relationship and I know will cherish your time together as each of you break out on your own.

    I'll never forget this day we were at the show. It had been a rough week for us Celtic Thunder fans. It had to be so difficult for Keith to take the stage so soon. He did it though, and told this lovely story that had us all laughing after a while. Besides being amazingly talented, Keith is a class act , and a true professional.

    This song never made me cry until George died. I associate this song with him more than My Boy or The Old Man.

    So good to see Keith be able to laugh again when talking about George. I know how much he loved George and will miss him. But these memories of their time together will bring him comfort I am sure. All of the lads in Celtic Thunder are in my thoughts and prayers along with Carolyn and Sarah.

    Even though I was one of the Grannies who became enchanted with Damian, George was the one who caught my attention from the very beginning. It is fortunate (for me) that other Boys have moved on to solo performing, reducing the impact that George's absence will bring. Blessings, George!

    Love this!! I was there when that happened. It was Opening Night here in St. John's Newfoundland. It was hilarious!! The rest of the guys stopped where they were suppose to & George just kept on walking....right out to the end of the stage. When he realized what he had done.....he just kinda crept back to where he was suppose to be. Everyone just lost it...the audience were rolling in their seats. My friends & I were in the front row....we couldn't stop laughing. Of course poor George had his finger up to his mouth telling us to "shhhh"...which made us laugh even more.The guys were in stitches as well....Emmet had tearing streaming down his face....they were all trying so hard to keep their composure & get through the song.....they barely managed!! So glad I was there for it & so glad that it's been a fun memory for them. Thanks so much for sharing this video....it's brought back precious memories for me!! Cheers!!

I'm glad I was there....it's a precious memory to have now & I'm happy to know it was a memory that Keith fondly remembers!! Thanks again for sharing this with us.....if not I probably would have never known that he shared that story. Cheers!!

    Now that both George dead and Keith going solo, Celtic Thunder just isn't the same. Seen them in concert last year and didn't know that Keith wasn't with them anymore until I got there. Still a great show, but George and Keith were the best.

    There was a wonderful camaraderie between between all the lads when George was alive. When George passed, something definitely changed. The camaraderie was very different. You could see it in the shows. Then it seemed not long after Keith decided to go solo. There are many times I go back and watch my favorite songs from CT. Majority are before George died. I greatly enjoy Keith and follow him. Since Covid, Keith has been doing shows on Stageit.com/Keith Harkin.
