Life update
Yesterday four weeks ago we were in the NCH. There are times when it seems a little unreal. Did it really happen? Thankfully there is video evidence to prove that it did. It was the best night of my life. To be on stage with so many friends and to have more friends and family…

Next stop Cork?

We pulled it off
Epic, amazing, dream come true. These are the words that I am settling on, 914 was the final sales figure. Only 20 of the complementary 50 seats were used which took us to 934. There were some people who could not make it on the night, so the attendance was approximately 920. It was a…

A fighting chance
801. Add on the 50 and we are at 851. 1092 is the mark without the choir balcony seats. We still have a day to go. There is a possibility of getting on the Oliver Callan show tomorrow morning. If we did manage to get that, I feel we would get very close to the…

A good sales week
346. We sold 55 this week, over twice what we sold the previous week. Add in the complementary tickets and we are close to 400, not far short of one third full We are getting there.

Sounding good
We had our first rehearsal yesterday. There was a very good turn out with just a couple of people missing for good reasons. The choir sounded fantastic. The rest of the gang were equally as good Things are shaping up.

More numbers
291. Add in the 50 complementary seats already allocated to Fighting Blindness and we are at 341. 309 is the quarter full mark, so we have less than 900 to do in five weeks. My idea is to get close to 600 allocated seats with 10 days to go and then look for Radio time…
