    Celtic Women are coming here to St. Louis at the end of March. I have seen them on PBS, are they worth seeing in concert? I too would wear my kilt.

    I think so, even if we were seated as far away as could be. Have to change that next time around.

    If you like them on PBS, you should like them in concert. They have a Scottish bagpiper who plays a few tunes, and an Irish piper who also plays a few tunes - both of which I enjoy hearing - and the ladies themselves sing solo and together. I thought it was a good show.

    Rest assured, they'll sound just as good as on TV, they will likely be lip syncing to the same audio tracks. This is not really criticizing them, better or worse, the use of pre-recorded audio happens more than you think at concerts,

    But they will be just as fun to look at.
