Tati The Sentinel Group: Members Posts: 3360 Joined: Feb. 2002 Posted: June 25 2006, 13:00 As far I've read on oldfield.de + www.taurusiv.net, Maggie Reilly is confirmed to sing with Mike Oldfield @ Nokia Night of The Proms. The news came direct from Dirk Hohmeyer(the guy who chose the tracks for The Complete MO compilation) who talked with www.oldfield.de about it Just perfect! -------------- "But it's always the outsider, the black sheep, that becomes the blockbuster." - Mike Oldfield, 2014 "I remember feeling that I'd been judged unfairly and that I was going to prove them wrong." - Peter Davison, 2011 Back to top

manintherain Group: Members. Posts: 545 Joined: Mar. 2004 Posted: June 26 2006, 03:35 Yes, and there´s more good news! We can expect Maggie to sing Moonlight Shadow and To France alongside with John Miles on vocals for Shadow On The Wall. There will also be an excerpt from Orchestral Tubular Bells and Ommadawn is still in the talks. Sounds good, eh?   Back to top

Piltdownboy on horseback 22 Group: Members Posts: 1545 Joined: Sep. 2005 Posted: June 26 2006, 09:43 I'm very happy with this news... Hope maggie is not as BORING onstage as she was in montreux Good songs to play Btw. Don't get too happy yet, i heard that 'maggie REILLY' is not to sing, but that Maggie stands for 'Maggietosh', which is the newest kind of synthetic singers. I heard they're going to do a extended version of the gate, and 3 mixes of Angelique period -------------- "And now we're going to play Platinum!" Back to top

TubularBelle Group: Members Posts: 1487 Joined: April 2004 Posted: June 26 2006, 09:54 I wonder if she is as big as a house now, she might not fit on the stage. -------------- I hate getting up early. I didn't even realise there were two 6 o'clocks in one day! Back to top

Hope maggie is not as BORING onstage as she was in montreux I'm sure she will be. Mike has a long tradition of working with boring people. It's a fine old tradition. I also hope she's as corpulent as ever. God I'm sick of fit people. -------------- "There are twelve people in the world, the rest are paste" Mark E Smith Back to top

There will also be an excerpt from Orchestral Tubular Bells and Ommadawn is still in the talks. Sounds good, eh?   I thought he was supposed to be only playing for 20mins per show? Those three songs alone will come to 20mins, I certainly hope he plays for longer. An orchestral Ommadawn with Mike playing over it sounds particularly interesting. Back to top

The Big BellEnd Group: Members Posts: 971 Joined: Jan. 2004 Posted: June 26 2006, 14:59 I think they should just give Mike the night to perform with the full orchestra, 20 minutes is not enough and I think mike may just have enough in his back catalogue to stretch it out to a few hour's entertainment. -------------- I, ON THE OTHER HAND.

bee Group: Members Posts: 1227 Joined: Jan. 2004 Posted: June 27 2006, 16:33 Really good to hear they may be collaborating again, Mike & Maggie. She sings so well for his music. I noticed on the website, link given in Tati's post - thankyou Tati -, it was called Angel Tears. Is that anything to do with Tears of an Angel as on Light & Shade? Just a coincidence I suspect. I thought Maggie looked really well on that site. On the Montreux DVD I thought she looked rather blue, very dodgy lighting that wasn't at all flattering and she did not look as if she was having a good time. And Larstangmark, "corpulent" such a good word, one I shall try to use more often! Made me smile! She does have a wonderful voice though, it has to be said. -------------- ....second to the right and straight on till morning....

maria Group: Members Posts: 928 Joined: July 2002 Posted: June 27 2006, 17:49 this was excellent news, indeed!  we will be attending a wonderful return to the origin.. i can't believe i will be listening at both together and live! if i could choose a couple of songs for her to sing, i'd love to listen 'to france' and 'talk about your life' Quote (TOBY @ June 26 2006, 13:34) ... I certainly hope he plays for longer. An orchestral Ommadawn with Mike playing over it sounds particularly interesting. me too..  half an hour is such a short time for so much as mike can say.. i wish they replanned a bit and offer him some more time to play, and include an excerpt from ommadawn. more and more looking forward to december.. -------------- ...morning and evening i'm flying, i'm dreaming...

Intuition2004 Group: Members Posts: 3 Joined: Jan. 2006 Posted: Oct. 27 2006, 16:43 [B]Sorry Folks, but i think your mistakin', There's no official statement of Maggie Reilly joining MO i Germany for the NOTP. In Maggie's homepage there's information about concerts in november/december, and nothing about NOTP. Furthermore, Miriam Stockley who sang Moonlight Shadow in Berlin is an official name of NOTP in Germany, so it should be obvius for her to sing for MO. But my god, i'm looking forward to Hamburg 2/12, and also to see OMD again, what a great combination for us lucky guys growing up in the 80' . Maggie Reilly concert 22/11 in copenhagen for your information. Back to top
