okay i read that tangy wrote a story based off one of her dreams, so i am going to do the same. ps damian is not in this till the very end. AND this is made up... celtic thunder before damian *wink wink* don't get mad at me."Hear our hymn from the heartland Hear our prayer Steer us through stormy waters Lead us there..." Were the words sung by Ryan Kelly. Celtic Thunder was shooting a video in Ireland. Ryan had barely stopped singing when, the director of the video yelled "CUT CUT!" "What did I do wrong this time?" Ryan asked with a hint of sarcasm. It was the fourth time he had sung his part. The rest of the guys understood why he was mad. "EVERYTHING." Yelled the temperamental man, named Riley McNamara. His green eyes picked up the red in his hair, because he was flaming with anger. "Well maybe if you told me I could fix it." Ryan said, his temper started to flair. "You were standing wrong for starters." Riley replied. "When I stand like that is helps my voice, plus the ladies like it." "Well I don't. But that was the best you did, so we will have to deal with that. Keith your next." "Just peachy." Keith said, with so much sarcasm you could not tell if he was serious. "Be careful Keith, that guy is brutal. Where did Sharon find him?" "Guys," Sharon said walking up." "Some one is gonna be in trouble." Paul said. Ryan and Sharon gave him a look. "I know this guy is a little temperamental. But you guys are good, and deserve the best." The five guys looked at each other, and sighed. "Keith come over here, close to the edge, we want the water in the shot." Riley said. Keith walked over to where he pointed. "Perfect." Thunder cracked, "Even more perfect. Keith started to sing, "When the storm is raging And thunder rolls Deliver us from the ocean Save our souls." "CUT!" The director yelled, "It was to loud, do it again." Keith sang the part again, he sang it with more softness in the tone and it wasn't as loud. "That was PERFECT! Ryan, come back and do your part again." Ryan rolled his eyes, he knew the next words out of the director's mouth. "Ryan try to be more like Keith." Ryan was getting annoyed, he sang his part. "Will you sing the chorus too, I have a brilliant idea for the final product." Sharon asked. Riley McNamara rolled his eyes. But went with it, Sharon was the producer and her ideas always amazed him. Ryan gladly sang the chorus, he liked when people asked nicely for things. "Keith I am going to need you to sing the chorus too." Sharon said. Keith agreed and sang the chorus. Keith went to the tent as it started to thunder and lightning even more, Ryan followed. "George your next." Riley said, "Now I wish this was in Scotland but that would cost a lot of money, and visual effects can work wonders." Riley pointed to a spot and George walked to it. "Sing your verse, then sing the chorus, in a different shot." George nodded his head. George started to sing, "When the winds are howling Vigil keep Shelter us and save us From the deep" "CUT!" The director yelled yet again. His voice was going from yelling so much. "Something doesn't sound right." "Oh I am supposed sing the harmony with him." remember it is not damian hope ya like it. PLEASE tell me what ya think. love ya- pfieffer

A man with curly strawberry blond hair stepped forward. He was tall and was eighteen. "Sorry I did not tell ya earlier." "Oh it's okay." Sharon said before Riley could say a word. "We will film you next, we don't want harmonies just yet." "Okay." The young man said. "Well if that is what we were doing. Then that was great George, lets film the chorus now." George was filmed singing the chorus. "Charlie, your up." The man with the strawberry blond hair stepped forward. Riley walked around looking for the perfect place. He spotted a cave type thing. At the entrance their was a rock. "Go sit on that rock Charlie." Charlie walked to the cave and sat down. "Perfect. Action." Charlie sang the exact same thing as George but with a harmony, that everyone loved. Riley yelled cut and they filmed him singing the chorus. Charlie was great, and his piercing green eyes with a circle a brown, gave him an intensity that the other guys wish they had. Next up was Paul. Riley told Paul to stand on this grassy patch, which Paul did. Then he sang with beautiful operatic voice, "Thank you, Lord, you have brought us Safe to shore Be our strength and protection Ever more." "Brilliant Paul." Riley said. His anger was almost gone now. "Now for the chorus." Paul sang the chorus, and really rocked it. The guys were packing up. "Wait!" Riley yelled. "What now?" George asked, he was cold and tired, he wanted to go to his hotel room and call his wife. "Their is this little part we are forgetting. It is not really the chorus or a verse, but one of ya has to sing it." "What is it?" Keith asked. Riley talked the verse, "Déan trócaire Déan trócaire A Thiarna" The guys looked at eachother, none of them sang the part by themselves it was more of group thing. And none of them wanted to tell Riley that. "The guys," Phil started, he was packing up the music equipment that he was running, over heard Riley's question. " Sing it together." "Well we can do a few group shots if that is okay with you lot." Every one nodded they were tired, but wanted to get the whole thing finished. Riley walked around, and picked the perfect spot. The guys stood, in order from left to right, Charlie, Keith, George, Paul, then Ryan. They sang the part, and as the finished a lightning bolt flashed and everyone could see it was so cool. Then they sang the chorus together, while thunder boomed and even more lightning came. "Brilliant last shot men, you can go home." Riley said. The guys were elated, they could not wait to see the finished product. Sharon, Phil and Riley stayed up all night working on the rough cut of the video. The guys came to the studio the next day to lay down some new tracks. But a surprise was waiting for them when they walked in.
Hoped y'all liked it. Please tell me what ya think. all comments are appreciated good and bad. love ya- pfieffer

First to walk in was Keith, and Charlie. They walked into a dark studio. "Dude did we have to come today, it is all dark." Keith said. As soon as Keith said that, George walked in, with a same look of shock on his face as Keith and Charlie had. Paul and Ryan walked in a few minutes later, "Okay, what's up?" Paul asked rather loudly. "I think we are being wound up." Ryan suggested. The tv turned on. The guys looked at each other, "Who did that?" Charlie asked. Every one nodded their heads saying they did not do it. Then they heard thunder. "Lads sit down." George said. They all sat down, to watch. They did not realize what they were watching at first. Then they heard the crack of thunder, that gave them a realization that they could be watching the video they made yesterday. The guys were intrigued. They heard Ryan's voice but their was no Ryan, just the camera zooming in on a spot on the cliff. Then they saw Ryan finishing his verse. Then some awesome percussion sounds being in time with the lighting, it was so cool. Then came Keith's verse. The camera was zooming out above him, and when he finished you could not see him. The first chorus came, It was so cool. They used the group shot, but each chorus they shot individually was faded in the back ground. George and Charlies verse came next. The camera zoomed down to George, like if the chorus was not their it would have flowed from Keith to him. Then they faded in Charlie sitting. It was so cool. They came to the chorus again. They used the individual shots and everyone was singing. Keith paused the video. "What about that individual chorus stuff we sang." "Hush." Paul said taking the remote away from Kieth and putting it back on play. "I think Paul is mad cause I paused it before his part." Keith claimed. "Keith shut it." Charlie said. It faded into Paul singing his verse. Then it faded to the half chorus part with all of them singing, it was zooming out. It zoomed back in for the final chorus which was the group shot. Then the camera went up and started to spin down to Paul, singing the chorus, then still spinning slowly it cut to George singing the chorus. In the same way it cut to George it cut to Keith singing the chorus, Then it cut to Ryan, and then it cut to Charlie. It ended with a cut to all of them in a group shot, singing the chorus. The entire time the camera was slowly zooming in, and spinning, It was really cool. It ended with a clash of thunder and a lightning bolt. "Woah!" Ryan said. "That was cool." Paul said. "I am speechless." George added. "So I take it you liked it?" A voice asked turning on the lights. No one recognized the voice, "Who are you?" Charlie asked.
Hoped you liked it. remember i will tell you my actual dream when i finish the story... the song was different in my dream, and i figured that out typing it, and got upset but this works. anyways PLEASE comment and tell me what you think. good and bad comments are appreciated. love ya- pfieffer

"Who I am is not important" The kid responded. He looked no older than ten. "I helped edit it..." Sharon came in, "Hey guys. This little chap here did help edit it. He is going to sit and watch you guys today. He is going to help Phil for a few weeks." "So what's his name?" Ryan asked. "Joseph." Phil said. "Did ya like it. Sharon is brilliant, and this little guy has a lot a great ideas." "Now onto work." "Oh we loved it by the way." George said. The guys were recording the official version of Heartland. Ryan was in the booth. Before Phil started directing him. Joseph pulled him over. "My name is not Joseph." "Well, for now it is. Just go with it." Phil said as he went to directing Ryan. Joseph rolled his eyes. Ryan had finished and Charlie was up. He started to sing. He was really good. He finished. Paul went in sang his bit, and got on the computer. Keith went in. Ryan walked over to Joseph and started to talk. "So Joseph, what do you like to do?" Ryan asked. "Well, I like to wright, play footy, and sing." Joseph hated being called Joseph, it was not his real name. "Nice." Ryan replied trying to be nice. Their was some awkwardness. Keith came out and George went in. His baritone voice left Joseph speechless. Then all five of the guys went into the booths and did all the group stuff. But in Phil's mind something did not sound right.They finished. "Great job today guys." Sharon said, "Don't forget the gig tonight. I heard a rumor. And it could be bad and good, don't let it get to ya though." Sharon's last words had the guys all worried. What was going to happen. Every one went to Ryan's house to hang out before hand. "So," George started, "What do ya think she meant by that." They were all clueless. Or they all seemed to be clueless.
I hoped y'all like it. PLEASE comment and tell me what ya think. feed back good and bad is greatly appreciated. thanks love ya- pfieffer

A few hours had passed. They were at the pub, getting ready. Charlie peeked out from back stage. He suddenly got really nervous. It was time for the guys to go on. They rocked the pub. They went to sit down, when a man came up and asked to speak to Charlie.
"You were amazing, we would be happy to sign you, as a solo artist. I hope your buddies don't mind." The guy said. "Thanks so much. I don't think they will." Charlie said. He was so happy. Before he went to sit down with the guys. He walked over to Phil, "Thanks so much. I got a deal." "Great job, lad. I hope the boys don't take it to roughly." Phil congratulated. "I am sure they wont. I mean you and your surprise, will bring their spirits up." Charlie said. As he left, he got a little sad. He knew that Celtic Thunder was going to be big. But he got happy, knowing that he would be pursuing his dream of a solo career, and Celtic Thunder would be even bigger, without him. He had so many mixed emotions. He wanted to be happy and sad. He walked up to the lads, "Hey guys." He started "Who was that guy you were talking to?" Paul asked. "Oh him." Charlie said, he tried to be happy but it came out kind of glum sounding, "He was scout for a record label, that Phil asked to come." The atmosphere suddenly got sad, "Why would Phil ask him here?" Keith asked. "Why did he only want to see you?" Ryan asked. "Well guys, you all know my dream is to be a solo artist, and I don't think Celtic Thunder is my call, ya know." George patted him on the back, "It's okay Charlie, we will always have a place for you. If you, ya know." "I know." Charlie smiled. The rest of the guys smiled. Although this was a tough, time they would get through it. "Oh guys Phil has a surprise for you." Charlie added, as he sat down next to Paul. Just then the focus went to the stage. The guys were still focused on Charlie, when they looked on stage. Standing up their was Joseph. "What is he doing up their?" Keith asked. "The little guy is going to embarrass himself." Paul added. "I can't watch." Ryan stated. "Guys give him a chance." Charlie pleaded, raising an eyebrow.
I hope y'all like it. It is almost over. Then y' all get to hear the real dream I thought for a minute during this post that i could make charlie celtic charlie but i decided that was a bad idea. the charlie here is NOT celtic charlie. sorry it was short. PLEASE comment and tell me what ya think. love ya- pfieffer

A song started to play. Wonderful melodies. Then Joseph started to sing. The guys mouths dropped, even Charlies. No one in the whole joint expected a voice that strong to come from such a little kid. "He's not embarrassing himself at all. Although it sounds like something is missing." George said nudging Paul. Joseph finished singing, the entire place was in tears. Phil walked on stage. Every one was clapping. "Thank you. I would like to introduce, Damian Joseph Mc Ginty." He put an emphasis on Joseph. "He will be taking Charlie's place in Celtic Thunder, the group you heard here tonight. The song he sun was written by me and a buddy of mine. It was called Bird Without Wings. I hope you enjoyed it." Phil finished walking off stage. Damian followed with a smile that was contagious. Damian walked up to the table where the guys were sitting, "So what did ya think?" "Great surprise, bud" Charlie said. "Can some one explain this whole thing to me?" Paul pleaded. "Well." Charlie started. "Wait so what is your real name?" Keith asked. "Damian, Joseph is my middle name, Phil though it was so clever." He laughed. Charlie continued, "I went up to Phil about two months ago telling him about my goals and ambitions. And how I thought Celtic Thunder was just not for me. And he said he would see what he could do. Then he remembered, that he would need a new singer. Well I told him about Damian here, gave him a copy of a CD he made..." "And I got a call about a month ago," Damian stated, "From Phil asking me to audition. And here I am." "Wow." Ryan stated, "But I have a question, how old are you?" Damian was a little thrown back, "I am fourteen" He proudly stated. This made their jaws drop even more. "But how?" Paul asked, "I mean you look so young, but then your voice." "I know, I am hoping my height will catch up." Everyone laughed at the comment. "All I can do is hope you don't take over my parts, you have a pretty good range." George commented. "I highly doubt that." Damian said. Keith was thinking really hard about something then blurted out "DAMO!!!" Everyone looked at him and started laugh. "What are you talking about?" Charlie asked. "A nickname. Damo, is the perfect nickname for him." Keith replied, every one just rolled their eyes. "Well lads, I think you need to get to know your new group member, I need to go talk to Sharon for a minute, then I will be on my way, wish me luck." Paul stood up with his water in hand, they had rehearsal tomorrow "To Charlie's solo career." Every one echoed, even Damian who did not have a glass, "To Charlie's solo career." "Good luck man." Damian whispered to him as he walked off. "I have one last question." Paul asked, "How did you know Charlie?" "Oh, he was in my theater troupe" Damian replied. Just then Phil walked up to the table, "George." he started, "Did you notice something was off about that song." George wanted to say no, but instead he said, "Yeah a little." Phil, through some sheet music at him and walked off. George was puzzled for a minute. Then he got it. He read the sheet music, he started to tear up. Damian smiled. The guys crowded around George to take a peak at the music. It was the harmonies to A Bird Without Wings. They all realized, where Sharon wanted this song to go. A father and son. The rest of the night was great. They had a bunch of great craic. The guys were getting up to leave the pub, they walked out the door. They said goodbye to each other. Then Paul was just standing their.He was thinking, his eyes got really big."Wait what about the video?" He just blew it off, he was sure Sharon already had that figured out. THE END I really hoped y'all liked it. PLEASE comment and tell me what ya think. Feedback good and bad is greatly appreciated. OH the next post will have my actual dream in it so yeah. love ya- pfieffer

okay so this is the actual dream i had... i am not going to tell the first part although it did have to do with ct it had nothing to do with the story. oh my dreams are like movies... hence the video any ways.
first part of my dream happens (if you ask nicely i might tell it, cause it is funny) It got dark and faded to a new scene. It was dark, and their was cliff on the cliff was Paul singing the chorus of Irelands Call. Then it cut to a cliff in Scotland where George was singing the chorus of Irelands call. Then it cut to another cliff in Ireland, and Keith was singing the chorus of Ireland's call, but it was not his normal voice, it was softer and not as loud, but just as sweet sounding. Then it went to yet another cliff in Ireland and Ryan was singing the chorus of Ireland's call. Each guy was singing the chorus individually, then it went to a new guy, well it cut to a guy who was not Damian. I was not sure where Damian was. But the guy that was singing was an amazing singer with strawberry blond hair, I could not really see his face, but I know he had green eyes with a hint of brown. He was about seventeen, but he was no Damian, then I woke up.
so i was typing the story realizing that in my dream the song was Ireland's call, not Heartland... but hey Heartland works to. I hope you like it love ya- pfieffer
