I would love to see this performance but it's only on certain channels and times here in the States. It's different on every system - where I live it's on NBC at 3:05 Christmas morning and it is on DirectTV channel 662 at 7PM tonight repeated nearly every night for the next two weeks - but I don't have DirectTV. Boston is showing it on Sunday at 3PM, Hartford CT on ABC on the 28th at 5PM and well, you get the point! If you are interested in seeing it, click on www.zap2it.com then enter your zip code, click on tv listings, and search "Holiday Festival on Ice" for the show time in your area and on your cable/satellite system. Maybe you'll get to see it. If anyone can record and upload it, that would be GREAT!!!! Merry Christmas to All!!

Yes Joe, I did see that on YouTube, but it just left me wanting more!!! I sent a message to the person who put the video up and asked if (s)he would be able to upload the Cottars portion. Fingers crossed!!

This was a great show, I especially liked the first song that the Cottars performed, the one called "The Season of Holly and Ivy." Natalie's Celtic Christmas medley (and all her other songs for that matter ) were also neat to hear, and of course, the skating was very nice . I didn't see the entire show, but what I did see was awesome Cheers, Ginny

I didnt watch the whole thing either, I was getting tired, but I saw about 40 min of it and it was very good, I liked the first one the cottars sang, for the peace carol they sounded a bit off to me, I think the person who was singing the main melody, didnt have their mike loud enough, because you heard mostly the harmony.

Hi everyone, I managed to see this on television today First of all, I was going through all of the channels at five minutes to 4 PM. One of our channels, WNBC from New York City, is scrambled but I was able to tell that Natalie MacMaster was playing her fiddle. It struck me that this is "Holiday Festival on Ice" ! I was also able to see Fiona and Claire and the rest of the performers. My digital cable has a search feature. So I input the letters "HOLIDAY FESTIVAL" .. Lo and behold...the program was to re-air on the 'MyNetworkTV' station at 5 PM. So I quickly found a videotape (which also contains the Leahy PBS special ) and I recorded all of the live music segments. I really very much enjoyed "The Season of Holly and Ivy". "The Peace Carol" was nice but sounded a tad flat...still I loved it! So listen up America...search your TV Guides and find out when Holiday Festival on Ice 2008 will be shown in your area! Best wishes, Joe
