TODAY'S SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU
BY CELTIC INVASION VACATIONS
Every year, I take Celtic music fans on an adventure of a lifetime. This is not your typical wham-bam-thank you ma'am tour. We travel in small groups. We explore the Celtic history of different regions. We don't need to see everything, because this is a vacation. Instead, our invasion brings out the relaxation and magic of our adventure. In 2018, you can join me on a Celtic Invasion of the Isle of Skye in Scotland. Sign up to the mailing list at http://celticinvasion.com

Robert Eby emailed: "I'm usually either at work or playing World of Warcraft while listening to the Celtic Music Podcast. The music goes perfectly with WoW!"
Miguel Britto Bessa emailed from Brazil: "Hi Marc, I've been a listener since 2008, but this is my first message ever to a podcaster I enjoy. Thanks for all these shows you've set up for us, and congratulations on the excellent selection of artists and song. The newest selection really touched my heart. I was wondering if you could ever do a galego special, since the people from Northwest Spain and North Portugal were also Celtic people, they have interesting (and some very familiar) songs. If you need help choosing the artists I can aid you and I'm sure a lot of people could help. Um abraço do Brasil!"
Miranda Nelson emailed: "Hi Marc! I just wanted to let you know I have been listening to the podcast since St. Patrick's Day when I found it through my favorite local band The Selkie Girls. I fell in love with it and I had to hear more. I decided to listen to every one, all the way back to #1. I can now say I've listened to every one of the Irish & Celtic Music Podcasts. I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate what you do for us. You are amazing! I can't wait for the concert on Sunday! Slante!
