Recently Candace66 shared this image, taken from the Ballisodare music festival, apparently 1978 - Nicky Ryan is there, and probably Eithne towards the lower left corner Closer-up " She has the same jacket as this when she walks out with the others in Clannad ๐ก From this video ๐๐ถ If she is Eithne, then surely the girl waking past Leo (just that she is wearing the aviator glasses) is also her? ๐

I think the first one is definitely Eithne, her face and appearance look rather similar to this picture: I am not sure about the second picture. If Eithne appears in this picture, and if the video was shot at the same time/day as when Leo sang the song, the girl in the brown jumper couldnโt be Eithne, since Eithne wore a blue grey blouse. ๐
However, we can see Eithne wearing a brown outfit in other parts of the video. ๐

In that picture Eithne isn't the one wearing the blue blouse ๐
- she is the one wearing the white/grey jumper with the red pattern. This post - from the right it is our/viewers' right, but the left from where Eithne and Deirdre are sitting in the picture. I think these were filmed on different occasions ๐ก

Sorry, I meant the grey jumper ๐คฆโโ๏ธ It seemed a bit blue-ish when I first looked at it, and I incorrectly labeled it as blue in my post. ๐
Thanks for pointing it out. Then itโs possible that the girl walking past Leo is Eithne, although Iโm still not sure. ๐

I donโt think that the girl with the glasses is Enya at all.

Another couple of Clannad performance videos. Both performances were great to hear too! Brilliant instrumentation, and Moya's singing, wonderful to this day. ๐ค๐ถ This first one from 1976 seems to have been questioned by others for a while: (Girl with bowl cut at 3:50) The first time I saw this (just under a year ago) I thought it was definitely not Eithne (who would have been 15 at the time, and probably at boarding school). Also her eyebrows aren't really arched that way, and features didn't seem quite right, and I thought this lady's face was a bit 'mature' to have been Eithne at that age, seeing her youthful look when she joined Clannad. Then again I probably looked a bit older than my age in my early teens (mainly because I was tall) and younger later on, possibly now (but no such cheekbones.. ) I was more certain it wasn't her before, but now second-guessing does anyone else have an idea?
This one is another example where I apparently recognise the person from a distance, from fuzzy footage. At 1:18 for a few seconds, I think Eithne is the second girl in the background ๐ turning to speak to a friend for a moment, and also applauding at the end. Her posture and way she keeps her hands seems kind of similar, and the 'shadows of the face' too. This was the year after the Ballisodare festival, and the year before Eithne first played alongside Clannad. Unlike the previous 1976 clip, where she should've been at school, this was 1979, supposedly Eithne's 'year off' following college education. โบ๏ธ I'm more certain about this second one being Enya, anyone else? ๐
