Guess we'll just have to wait. Sounds like the prospect of a very busy week for the Gruffudds.
I emailed Eisteddfodd to ask about WelshCake. Let's see if and what they answer. :)
...Hadn't heard anything about any kind of honor for Matthew??????)
It was on Matthew's thead.
Matthew is to become a member of the Gorsedd of Bards at this year’s National Eisteddfod, but also:
"WELSH screen heartthrob Matthew Rhys is about to venture into the world of music. He will take to the stage with the National Youth Orchestra of Wales as part of this summer’s National Eisteddfod in his home city of Cardiff. Matthew, 33, a former pupil of Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Glantaf, will provide the first-ever narration in Welsh for Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra, conducted by NYOW Music Director, Owain Arwel Hughes.
The following evening, Matthew, is to be accepted as a member of the Gorsedd of the Bards."
Another interview said that the concert would be on 7th August, that would mean that Matthew's being accepted as a member would be on 08-08-'08. Wonder if Ioan will be there. It would be nice.
Paooooo so it is TRUE, "Moon Princess" comes out on august 3!
So fast after after all! :blink:
Waoo so we can see a lot of Ioan (finally :wink: :applaud:) those days! :clap:
Oh sorry, I just saw this NICE video of Ioan on this welsh site, searching on Google.
Thank you the same. :hug
That's nice news for both of them, especially since it is taking place in Cardiff.
Reminder: Cyngerdd Tri10 will be shown on the Welsh tv channel s4c today at 20:00 (3 pm Eastern). I'm thinking it will also be live on their internet channel at the same time. Hoping someone will be able to record Ioan's taped segment and Matthew's appearance, or at the least this program will be re-played at s4c.co.uk. :mrgreen:

Thanks for letting us know, Muvidlover. Don't know if I can catch it, but I'm going to try.
All of that would be fun to see,and I wish I could see it too. What a wonderful event for Matthew! Bet he's bursting at the seams.....
Looks like I can't view it either. Maybe there is a blackout. Hopefully they will post a clip later.
Good luck with that,Annee,hope you hear back on it. Let us know,okay? ------------------------ Sounds like some good PICTURES could be on their way to us sooooooon.......no matter WHERE Ioan winds up!!!!
I wonder if me boyos will make any of the festivities later in the week? My Gruff radar is twitching......I feel he won't be far.........excuse me while I go into a trance........ :dance
Ohhh! Lucky you if he is. Might be worth a trip to Cardiff.
My son's just finished a week in Wales (fair enough, he was up a mountain on tactical exercises, but you know, Land of My Fathers and all that! :cool: )
I like Cardiff, but it's few hundred miles away and I'm working. Sigh! :weeping
Yeah, that might be a little too far for a day trip, but very tempting. Too bad you're working.
