The Corrs Club - Where the CorrBoard Community Continues!

bikecris - Other question: is there an article backround on how the record labels didn't trust Caroline to drum for TOC? (n/t) 21-Feb-2017 14:21:07

SeanCorrain - Was it the record label ? or was it Caroline who didn't want to drum ? 21-Feb-2017 19:40:04

bikecris - IDK, I remember it as being the record label. But yes, the real truth would be great. (n/t) 21-Feb-2017 21:45:40

Corranga - My assumption was always that it was the norm following FNF. It is just an assumption of course. (n/t) 26-Feb-2017 08:10:59

Nick - i think i remember reading there was kind of a rush to get the album done, so the best option was... 26-Feb-2017 12:21:14

SteveW - Caroline's drumming (or lack of thereof) on TOC 26-Feb-2017 15:38:48

bikecris - Less traditional question, favorite male: Keith Amto or Jim? 21-Feb-2017 14:17:26

GaelleF - Keith all the way ! For a long time, I fantasized Caroline would end up with him lol. (n/t) 21-Feb-2017 20:59:32

bikecris - He's too much of a brother figure, I imagine. Thoug not nearly as innapprorpiate as much as JIM, lolol!! (n/t) 21-Feb-2017 21:48:34

bikecris - For me, it's Anto. Sorry Jim, you're not to my taste! (n/t) 21-Feb-2017 21:47:26

Corranga - Keith, as he is so approachable and such a nice guy. I'm sure all 3 are, but Anto seems fairly shy 26-Feb-2017 08:07:24

bikecris - Age old question: which of our girls is the prettiest? 21-Feb-2017 14:15:38

bikecris - For me, it's Caro all the way. I told my aunti that she's the one I'd pursue if I liked ladies. (n/t) 21-Feb-2017 21:46:45

eieio - uhhhhh........you made your point. (n/t) 22-Feb-2017 02:10:21

bikecris - As Corrboard Linda would say, :O) ;O) (n/t) 22-Feb-2017 02:24:31

bikecris - I'd like to suggest Angel as the song of the week. It's the one that's currently making me cry. 15-Feb-2017 10:43:32

bikecris - I know it's hard to post a reply when it comes to death, but I'm sorry is really enough. Corrs have done 15-Feb-2017 11:07:37

corrazy_rach - Sorry for your loss bikecris - glad Angel can be a comfort to you (n/t) 16-Feb-2017 01:59:27

dave - It takes three years at least to get over the death of a parent - feelings of anger, loss, inadequacy etc 16-Feb-2017 07:39:19

bikecris - Thanks so much for your replies. It's definitely difficult, but having friends IRL and online is a great comfort. (n/t) 16-Feb-2017 14:53:01

Steverino - Hi Bikecris. I'm very sorry to read this news. 23-Feb-2017 04:47:27

bikecris - I'm so sorry to hear about Gerry. I know I'm out of the loop, LOL! (n/t) 15-Feb-2017 06:11:10

bikecris - Anyone have any insights or thoughts to share? I know they loved him very much! (n/t) 15-Feb-2017 07:46:41

bikecris - Beautiful pic of our favorite drummer girl (n/t) 15-Feb-2017 05:57:55

bikecris - I actually would not post such a comment about anyone else. Jim is not my favorite guitarist, Sharon is not my fav 15-Feb-2017 09:41:57

bikecris - I can't believe no one is replying to ask my favorite fiddler or singer, but ok..... (n/t) 15-Feb-2017 10:15:36

Corranga - This place isn't quite as busy as you expect it seems :) Who are your favourites? 16-Feb-2017 10:26:25

bikecris - My favorite singer are numberous, but Sia, Ana Gabriel, Lisa Lopez, Clarkson and Adele all compete with Andy in my mind. 16-Feb-2017 14:51:13

bikecris - I agree with you that the sum is amazing and way better than its parts. But LOL at Andy singing Metallica. 16-Feb-2017 15:03:35

SeanCorrain - How long ago was it now, that the band went back in to the recording studio ? 14-Feb-2017 21:28:53

Robin - Yes thought we might have heard something by now. They did go into the studio shortly after White light tour 14-Feb-2017 21:48:03

commonwombat - Perhaps some of us have been jumping to conclusions as to how far progressed things may be 16-Feb-2017 11:35:55

Robin - Thought it might be interesting to find out where and when we all saw the Corrs perform for the first time. Mine. was 08-Feb-2017 02:19:28

MC - The first time I saw them was March 16, 2001 at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. (n/t) 08-Feb-2017 02:25:49

Terry - Actually Ahoy was in october 2004, 09-Feb-2017 09:06:00

Corranga - We were at the standing Ahoy gig in 2004 too. I remember standing near the entrance waiting and someone having pizzadelivered (n/t) 26-Feb-2017 08:20:45

DrSJF16 - My first concert was delayed 15 years 09-Feb-2017 09:07:30

GaelleF - Mine was a private gig in May 2004 in London, for the release of BH. I had been a fan of them since 1997/1998, 09-Feb-2017 13:29:31

Mark - It was August 1996, Garden State Arts Center, New Jersey, USA... I wrote this back then... 09-Feb-2017 15:16:14

MC - So wish I had known about them back then.... that's 10 minutes away from where I live. ;-) 09-Feb-2017 16:13:46

Mark - Consider this the Corrs Club equivalent of a "Like" for your post :) (n/t) 09-Feb-2017 19:31:00

MC - LOL, thanks, Mark. Hope things are well with you & yours. :-) (n/t) 10-Feb-2017 00:27:03

dave - Hi Rach, I'm not actually on Instagram, just basic access on my sister's pc. Staying with her 13-Feb-2017 00:05:26

Robin - Enjoy Australia Dave. Must have been 99 as they did two gigs at N EC towards end of talk on corners tour so you were 12-Feb-2017 20:52:49

Chris - Derngate Theatre, Northampton. 23.03.1998 - it only seems like yesterday! (n/t) 12-Feb-2017 13:29:43

SeanCorrain - I had bought a ticket to that show and to Saratoga Winery too ... and Los angeles lol 16-Feb-2017 14:56:13

bikecris - I didn't drive at the time, I must've been 21 or so, so I couldn't rent a car to the Winery. 21-Feb-2017 22:24:03

Steverino - I have never seen the Corrs perform in person, though I did see Sharon during her solo tour. (n/t) 23-Feb-2017 04:42:48

chris1957 - First time saw the Corrs Perform 25-Feb-2017 21:29:33

den - i listened to a Scottish singer named Amy Bell sing Dreams on You Tube. She sang 02-Feb-2017 00:44:42

Robin - Agree Den she sings dreams well, Seeing Stars is also good. Had never heard of her before but she has lots of songs 03-Feb-2017 09:39:14

dave - Its a bit like the 10 years 'in the Wilderness' around here.. tumbleweed blowing.. not a soul to be seen.. (n/t) 26-Jan-2017 22:17:34

MentariS - *waves hand* (n/t) 27-Jan-2017 06:37:59

SteveW - I'm here too! 27-Jan-2017 10:31:50

robin - yes a long time since its been so quiet. hopefully some news soon. (n/t) 27-Jan-2017 15:30:22

Jerry - Here in the US, we're more into fake news now anyway. (n/t) 27-Jan-2017 16:17:48

MC - Or alternative facts. ;-) (n/t) 28-Jan-2017 06:14:02

dave - Jerry and MC, well at least your new president is providing 'the entertainment' 28-Jan-2017 19:15:39

MC - Good point. It's truly scary and very sad over here right now. (n/t) 29-Jan-2017 05:21:06

MentariS - To Jerry and Marie and other US members - hang in there. And please do vote decent people in in the next midterms :-) (n/t) 29-Jan-2017 09:55:08

eieio - ...................thet's exactly what we have done, thank you. (n/t) 04-Feb-2017 15:44:03

Corranga - I'm still checking in most days too, but not much to post really.. (n/t) 27-Jan-2017 17:05:54

corrazy_rach - I'm here too... Impatiently waiting for music or tour news like the rest of you... hehe (n/t) 28-Jan-2017 09:00:58

queenoftheroad - Still here! ^_^ (n/t) 28-Jan-2017 21:43:56

DrSJF16 - Also still here - patience is a virtue :) 29-Jan-2017 09:12:39

Corinna - Also still here :-) (n/t) 29-Jan-2017 11:40:45

CorrMac - I check in most days too :) 29-Jan-2017 21:24:26

robin - I was kind of hoping that Corrs just might have done racecourse gigs again but guess not. Jockey club have announced 30-Jan-2017 09:57:08

dave - Well if you know any local festivals in your areas looking for a 'headline act', 30-Jan-2017 14:18:34

Robin - Yes it crossed my mind that they may be taking a break, if so let's hope it's a short one. (n/t) 30-Jan-2017 20:39:22

Corranga - I think the Jockey Club gigs were one offs, They are rare enough that the organisers won't want the same act again 03-Feb-2017 23:04:38

bikecris - What??? No one heard you, there's not a living soul around! ;) (n/t) 15-Feb-2017 06:36:54

SeanCorrain - New Independent Article Outlining the success of White Light in Album / Tour Revenue 23-Jan-2017 23:52:02

MentariS - Andrea is participating in today's Women's March in London (photo from Instagram): 21-Jan-2017 15:46:03

Corrsgirl1 - Go Andy! (n/t) 22-Jan-2017 05:50:24

dave - Who is the woman with Andrea, I recognise her but can't put a name. British actress or singer ? (n/t) 22-Jan-2017 10:23:07

corrazy_rach - I'm pretty sure it's Zoe Desmond... (n/t) 22-Jan-2017 13:07:36

MentariS - What I like about her participation is that she gets neither preachy nor patronising about it 22-Jan-2017 13:43:44

Corranga - Yep, I agree. What doesn't help is people like Madonna making crazy suggestions that grab the press and bend the 23-Jan-2017 11:54:17

MentariS - Exactly Chris, the likes of Madonna do not succeed in providing comfort/reassurance to the people who need it the most.. 23-Jan-2017 12:53:48

SeanCorrain - In defense (to a point) of Madonna 23-Jan-2017 18:59:10

bikecris - Go Andy. Glad to see one of my musical heroes there, along with my comedy hero Amy Poehler. (n/t) 15-Feb-2017 06:06:52

Roblilley - Corr's / Emma Townsend - Dreams Acetate 12" record 21-Jan-2017 13:37:18

Corranga - Is the audio on the record different ? (n/t) 25-Jan-2017 13:50:49

Robin - A year ago today I was driving to Birmingham full of excitement and anticipation for the first Corrs gig staying 19-Jan-2017 14:15:46

Terry - It sure has been a fantastic year, to be able to see our favorite band live again; I certainly wouldn't have thought 19-Jan-2017 18:05:58

RichardY - Can't believe it's been a year Robin - I remember that day like it was yesterday! 19-Jan-2017 18:13:50

robin - Brilliant summary Richard really enjoyed it, brought back so many amazing memories. Like you i was buzzing with 19-Jan-2017 23:15:59

dave - As we're into the 'quiet season' after Xmas & New Year, when do you think a new Corrs album will appear? 18-Jan-2017 14:24:30

robin - Guessing April/May with hopefully some gigs mid summer but maybe thats wishful thinking.Bit surprised we have heard 18-Jan-2017 15:09:56

MC - Unless they're pulling a Beyonce and dropping it suddenly (which I highly doubt is the case), I can't imagine that... 19-Jan-2017 02:21:12

MentariS - If Album No. 7 is to be released in Q4 I hope at least in the next couple of months we'll get some real studio updates (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 08:06:25

Corranga - The tour schedules last year were very much dictated by venue availability and short time scales 19-Jan-2017 11:06:39

dave - Maybe they are 'in the hands' of the record company when it comes to release dates. I feel sure 19-Jan-2017 11:38:25

Chanh - I think Claire on Facebook misunderstood Jim's Tweet on twitter. 19-Jan-2017 13:18:50

sergio - Unless this would be the title of the record:)) (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 14:54:00

dave - No, the person Jim was referring to is someone in America whose jail sentence was reduced. (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 19:37:26

Corrsgirl1 - I finally did it! (Corrs related tattoo) 18-Jan-2017 11:42:52

MentariS - Good one Marlies! Nice choice of line and it's very well done too :-D (n/t) 18-Jan-2017 12:01:19

Corrsgirl1 - Thank you :) (n/t) 18-Jan-2017 12:11:23

Terry - Nice one there, and excellent choice! (n/t) 18-Jan-2017 16:34:03

Corrsgirl1 - Thank you! (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 01:08:43

Fabiola - Nice one! 18-Jan-2017 17:58:34

Corrsgirl1 - Thank you! 19-Jan-2017 01:09:36

MC - Very nice! :-) (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 02:22:11

Corrsgirl1 - Thanks! (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 05:20:57

Corranga - Looks good, and very fitting. I can't decide which is the bigger decision, China or the tattoo ;) (n/t) 19-Jan-2017 11:07:57

Corrsgirl1 - I think I gave the tattoo more thought than China 19-Jan-2017 12:36:15

SeanCorrain - I love it ! (Nice song selection ! and perfect lyrics) (n/t) 20-Jan-2017 15:55:46

Corrsgirl1 - Thank you very much! (n/t) 21-Jan-2017 15:12:05

bikecris - Wow, I'm not familiar with the song or new album, but congrats. There are many lyrics from our Corrs that 15-Feb-2017 10:10:49

bikecris - Oops, there's apparently no here. But still a great lyric from Angel. 15-Feb-2017 10:23:44

Corrsgirl1 - Those are lovely lyrics too! (n/t) 18-Feb-2017 13:02:09

Robin - Corrs related. I wrote to my local MP taking issue with the way tickets for music events are sold in the UK. My two 12-Jan-2017 19:27:43

dave - This problem is well known to the government and there was mention of it 12-Jan-2017 19:55:33

robin - My personal view is that the government have the power to simply make it illegal for these other sites to sell tickets 12-Jan-2017 20:49:40

Steverino - I applaud your activism! It's very aggravating that this is allowed to happen. 13-Jan-2017 06:24:59

dave - Interesting comment there Steverino. One of the problems in UK apparently 13-Jan-2017 09:53:21

DrFunkenstein - Anyone else remember camping out overnight in front of the ticket outlet (box office) to get concert tickets? 13-Jan-2017 12:38:38

Robin - Yes in those days for a popular gig it was the only way to get a ticket. When the Beatles performed in Newcastle people 13-Jan-2017 14:05:07

Steverino - Sounds horrendous, Dave. Hopefully, the criminal element of it (at least) gets cleaned up. 16-Jan-2017 17:19:36

RichardY - The UK government are actively looking at this - I watched an interesting session of a parliamentary committee recently 13-Jan-2017 18:49:08

MentariS - Similar case in Ireland apparently, with some TDs monitoring the U2 tickets controversy 19-Jan-2017 08:33:41

dave - With the popularity nowadays of 'live gigs' over record sales, unless some action is taken 19-Jan-2017 11:42:30

queenoftheroad - I was in a Youtube-listening kind of mood half an hour ago, and listened to Kiss of life. I really love this song. So I 12-Jan-2017 16:12:23

Robin - Thats excellent always great to introduce new people to the Corrs. You are right kiss of life is an amazing song, 12-Jan-2017 16:29:56

chris1957 - Discovering the Corrs 18-Jan-2017 17:46:31

dave - A week into the New Year, perhaps we could have new FOTM and POTW. (n/t) 09-Jan-2017 19:06:26

Corranga - Hi Dave, Cara (and Marc..) are the only people who do this I believe, so it's down to finding time between 10-Jan-2017 13:05:41

Corranga - I should also say, people should submit photos and suggestions for FOTM to Cara to help her with the task too! (n/t) 10-Jan-2017 13:06:23

RichardY - Thanks Chris - I've enjoyed my long stint as FOTM but as Dave says it probably is time for a change! 10-Jan-2017 18:08:12

Cara - Thanks. Nope he's not doing anything - that's just the server being busy. (n/t) 12-Jan-2017 21:05:51

Cara - I am pestering Marc on a weekly basis to get it set up again so I can change it. ;-) 10-Jan-2017 16:15:06

dave - I emailed you some photos today Cara. (n/t) 10-Jan-2017 19:34:47

Cara - Got them. As soon as he fixes stuff so I can update again I will be! (n/t) 12-Jan-2017 21:06:30

StPaddy - Cara, please feel free to take any of the photos I post on a daily basis from my Instagram. 12-Jan-2017 12:56:20

StPaddy - Here�s the link again. 12-Jan-2017 12:58:57

Cara - Thanks. :-) I've just told him everyone is really impatient but he's just said 'Mmmmm'. *lol* (n/t) 12-Jan-2017 21:08:31

mrrob69uk - Castle On The Hill and The Corrs 2014 demo 06-Jan-2017 21:41:47

Corranga - I can hear some resemblance, but perhaps not enough to be more than coincidence. More shocking 09-Jan-2017 12:56:59

MentariS - The song was co-written by Ed and Benjamin Levin. Ditto on the lyrics Chris... 09-Jan-2017 13:59:16

SteveW - Definitely hear the resemblance, plus more on Ed Sheehan and the Corrs 10-Jan-2017 00:52:37

Steverino - I did not hear any resemblance, but I am new to both songs. 11-Jan-2017 20:36:56

SteveW - Harmony is one of my favorites too 11-Jan-2017 22:53:34

Steverino - Yes, and it carries a good message of a desire for peace. 13-Jan-2017 02:25:36

SteveW - Harmony is on the White Light album 13-Jan-2017 02:59:35

Steverino - Sorry. I wasn't very clear. 13-Jan-2017 06:01:59

SteveW - Miracle; the missing song 13-Jan-2017 07:43:26

MentariS - I ranked Harmony at No. 1 in the survey you made Steve 13-Jan-2017 11:35:15
