Shania Fan
and
Patty Loveless Fan
AND...
CELTIC WOMAN Fan

I started out on eBay collecting Spice Girls and in particular Ginger Spice items and collectibles in June 2000. I discovered many great items here on eBay.

However around 2001 I started to turn more to the 'seller side' of eBay, rather than just always buying, buying, and more buying.

(I was doing way more selling than buying but now I have returned to more buying again. This is mainly because the seller side of eBay was consuming more of my time than I could afford to devote to it. So, I'm back to mainly buying again. But I have many, many beautiful items, including a lot of various autographs. So I could easily switch back to selling again, if and when time allows.

Most of what I was selling, when selling, is... SHANIA! SHANIA! SHANIA! I have over the years become extremely fond of Shania. I was fortunate enough to attend many of her concerts in 2003 and 2004 during her incredible UP TOUR. She is a wonderful, amazing, kind, caring, giving, loving person. If you are not familiar with Shania, trust me when I tell you she is a remarkable human being. And, I'm sticking to my guns. That is, even after all these years, I still say Shania is the world's most beautiful woman. I haven't found anyone yet who can convince me otherwise. *See Note About CELTIC WOMAN Below.

Another of my favorite recording stars is none other than Patty Loveless! Patty is, well, perfect! Again, I'm sticking to my guns. Patty is the BEST female country singer on earth! Not a soul on the planet sings like Patty Loveless! For that matter, not a soul in Heaven sings like Patty Loveless! In fact, not all the Angels in Heaven put together sing like Patty Loveless! Like Shania, I've also had the immense pleasure of seeing Patty live in concert many times as well and she is in a league all her own. She possesses a hauntingly beautiful mountain voice which just rips your heart from your chest. Patty is an Angel in her own right and I love her more than mere words can say. She is simply the best of the best! She is truly one in a million.

Now add to the mix ... CELTIC WOMAN! These six** incredibly lovely and incredibly talented ladies are true Angels! I had the pleasure of seeing them live in concert 12 times including 6 times (out of the 12) seated in the ORCHESTRA PIT - ROW A - DEAD CENTER to the stage, literally six feet away from them! They are wonderful. Talent you wouldn't believe. *And ... I think I finally found someone to compete with Shania as the world's most beautiful woman ... Lisa Kelly of Celtic Woman! It is NOW OFFICIAL ... LISA KELLY IS THE, THE, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL GOD EVER PLACED ON THIS GREEN EARTH! There is no longer any doubt about whether or not Lisa may be the world's most beautiful girl. She IS the world's most beautiful girl ... period!! Watch her and listen to her when she sings! You too will fall in love with this Celtic Angel. I've been to a million concerts but I'll tell you this, Celtic Woman (all 12 times I've seen them) were among the very best ARE THE VERY BEST OF THE BEST I've ever seen in concert!

**A Note About The Members Of CELTIC WOMAN.
When they recorded the "A NEW JOURNEY - LIVE AT SLANE CASTLE" performances over two nights in August 2006, HAYLEY WESTENRA joined the ladies for these two nights as well as toured with CW for the first half of the Spring 2007 "A NEW JOURNEY" Tour here in The States, while Meav was on hiatus. But it should be noted that HAYLEY was never one of the original members of CW. After her brief stint with CW, HAYLEY returned to her own very successful solo (musical) career.

Since then however, more changes have taken place in the CW line-up. Sadly, Meav has departed CW permanently, also to persue her own solo (musical) career. (We miss Meav tremendously, not being there on stage with the (other) ladies of CW). But we certainly wish Meav the best of everything life has to offer and she will forever remain in our hearts. Stepping in to fill the void left by Meav's departure is another beautiful and talented Irish colleen by the name of Lynn Hilary. Another Irish songbird with heaps of talent and beauty. The most recent US Tour (Winter/Spring 2008 Tour) which concluded on 05/17/08 in L.A. was the second time through for Lynn so, I can now say that she is finding her way just fine and is becoming more and more comfortable up there. And a sweet voice? Like silk. Smooth as butter.

Next change, although only (thankfully) a temperary change is the incredibly beautiful LISA KELLY home on maternity leave for the first half for the entire run of this current Winter/Spring 2008 Tour. LISA is due in March (2008) gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and this is the third for her and her husband SCOTT PORTER. While Lisa is home, for the first half of this Tour was home tending to her (then) impending delivery, ALEX SHARP has stepped in to fill LISA'S Spot. This is a temperary arrangement and once LISA is back on her feet, she is fully expected to rejoin the rest of the ladies.

Hopefully this is the last change I will have to announce, regarding CELTIC WOMAN, for a good long time to come. We love them as they are and want no other (original) members deciding to depart.
