Re: Ali Harper and Guests 19th May « Result #3 Today at 12:36am »
Last night I went to the Court Theatre in Christchurch to see Ali Harper perform her new album release concert Naughty and Nice. She had a Jazz band with her which included Mike Ferrar (guitarist) who accompanies Fiona too in her band. Ali is a great cabaret / show performer and has appeared in many musicals. This concert like the 2 CD album has two types of songs. The naughty , sexy jazzy songs and the nice poppy songs. Fiona appears in three songs on the album as well as the concert. The first song is a Doris Day number Secret Love which opens with Fiona's beautiful violin.
The next song includes Mike Ferrar on guitar and is the very beautiful Les Feuilles Mortes (Autumn Leaves)
The last song is the tango show tune from Pajama Game Hernando's Hideaway and includes Sophia Bidwell on piano accordion.

It's looking south/SE towards Nash point (Vale of Glamorgan). You can very faintly see part of the Somerset coast on the horizon, roughly near Minehead.
Was THIS one posted before? If it was I missed it. Really beyond stellar performance

Hi Rory, Several coverings of this performance were put up on YouTube about a year-and-a-half ago. One with quite a few views is given below. But this latest addition is far-and-away the best that I have seen. BobS

Don't remember it! Must be a while ago since she isn't wearing her engagement ring (unless that is it on the wrong finger). So, pre January 2012, although the vid was posted this month! Actually the set looks familiar, a bit of trawling through old videos should reveal when and where it was.

That looks ever so familiar. I'm sure I've been there. But can't quite remember where. I tweeted Pembrokeshire, but on second thoughts I think it isn't. I think is is around Aberystwyth. And I have walked most of the coast of Wales. Anyone else any ideas?

Re: Using Photobucket & similar sites « Result #15 Yesterday at 3:26pm »
Hi Libby,
I use photobucket too, but I've never used its editor. Instead I do all my editing beforehand locally, then upload the result. There are many programs about that will enable you to edit image files.

I'd say go with Picasa like Taylor suggested. It's free of course, and once you have the photos you want selected, you just go to Collage and it basically does everything for you. Useful program to have in general

Re: Using Photobucket & similar sites « Result #21 Yesterday at 5:36am »
Well, for some reason, Photobucket has changed photo editors several times in the past year. Don't know why. Just wish they had the old one back. You could do a whole lot more w/ it. For my banners, I usually just use Picasa. Nice and simple. To do what you want (if you don't want to download any software), just open up Power Point, insert & line up your images, and take a screen shot (Control-Print Screen). Then open Paint, paste (Control-V), crop, and save.

Using Photobucket & similar sites « Result #22 Yesterday at 3:54am »
Hi,
I'm a photo bucket user. I was wondering if any of you who also use the site could help me.
I'm trying to add more than one photo with another image, and make it into another image, with that new image included in it (if that makes any sense).
I did it once before, with this image below:
I use it for my signature on the Josh Groban forum, to display all her most current, most commercially available albums (particularly in the US). I wanted to add Hushabye to the line-up. I actually was able to add the photo within the forum itself, so it's okay for now. And so now it looks sort of like this, but a little more lined up:
But I'm just wondering if anybody knows how I could do that in photobucket, or any other image website. And as I say, when I first created that image, I was able to do it in photobucket, but now I just can't find any way at all to do it.
I also wonder how other people are able to add artwork to photos, like Jillian was able to for those Hayley banners she created, and that some of you are still using now (Richard, for one). Where, and how on earth do you manage things like that? I even tried to see if I could do it with the Windows image stuff, where I have my pictures stored, but there's nothing.
Also, isn't there a possibility they don't sell the displays, or at least if they have others in stock? Of course if that's the only one there, but I don't why there wouldn't be more. Who knows, I've never been to a music store.
Well they would most likely sell another if they had one, but the display is for sale because there's a price tag on it. Depending on how expensive or rare it is, and the size of the business, they may only have the display model.
-Rory
I know it would still be for sale, but at the store I work at, display models are only sold if all the others are gone, and then the displays are sold at a discount. And then, often the displays are sold on extra discount if the item itself is no longer going to be carried in the store.
Also, isn't there a possibility they don't sell the displays, or at least if they have others in stock? Of course if that's the only one there, but I don't why there wouldn't be more. Who knows, I've never been to a music store.

I don't think I've ever even seen that guitar before, and I can't quite make out the brand on the headstock. Doesn't look like a guitar that Hayley would buy anyway

Re: Hayley Westenra Twitter Account « Result #33 on May 18, 2013, 7:17am »
Hello Libby!
The picture I posted is from Macari's website. I walked past the shop yesterday and the red guitar was still in the left hand window, together with the white one next to it that you can just see in Hayley's photograph.
Hayley didn't buy the red guitar because it's still in the window. The shop is Macari's Musical Instruments in Charing Cross Road, opposite Old Compton Street:
There's another branch just round the corner in Denmark Street, better known as Tin Pan Alley.
Richard
I don't see the red guitar there, Richard. The displays don't even look the same, at least not from that angle.
Also, isn't there a possibility they don't sell the displays, or at least if they have others in stock? Of course if that's the only one there, but I don't why there wouldn't be more. Who knows, I've never been to a music store.
I wouln't be surprised if Hayley's purchase was a guitar though. Macri's fame seems to be mostly about guitars, particularly Gibsons. If she's bought one of them, what does that tell us about her musical direction?
Martin D
I always saw Hayley as more of a Strat girl lol . But there are so many directions she could go with any guitar, I think we'll know it when we see and hear it

Thanks for recording that Dave. I just got round to listening to it. Lovely interview.
I though that "Sleep On" sounded better than ever on that recording. Perhaps the better sound quality does work, even on my laptop. although to be fair it was the laptop with the best sound system I could find when I bought it last year, and I also use external speakers.
I'm looking forward to "dream a little Dream" on Hushabye. I've been trying to imagine how Hayley would sound singing it, and I'm quite excited by the prospect.

I also received the automated telephone call from Ticketmaster informing me that the tour had been cancelled and my ticket purchase would be refunded and may take up to 15 days to reach my account!
The tour was cancelled 9 days ago and I know for a fact that it only takes 2 days for a credit to be processed and to be received by your bank account. In other words TM are keeping the money for as long as possible in order to gain further interest.

Hello folks!
Hayley didn't buy the red guitar because it's still in the window. The shop is Macari's Musical Instruments in Charing Cross Road, opposite Old Compton Street:
It wouldn't work for me at first, but finally, after I tried the BBC link and couldn't find the interview anywhere, I went back and refreshed it (again!) and finally it worked. At first that little tab that goes across wasn't even showing, and the numbers wouldn't move.
Anyway, I got to hear it all eventually. I do wish you'd left the entire Josh Groban song that came on at the end! It's my favorite off his new album. So, not that I haven't heard it a few times already, but....
Hi Libby, sorry about Josh!
The audio file is quite big, 20MB so if your connection to Europe was slow at the time, that could explain your initial problems. I've now added an alternative version with a much smaller file but slightly lower quality, which should play quicker if you or anyone else have further problems with it.

Thanks for the upload, Dave!
I listened to Hayley's interview live, and it was the best part of the show by a very long way. It was reminiscent of the good old days when BBC Radio 2 was worth listening to.

Hi Libby,
I did not realise that the wording on instagram could be longer than on twitter so I never looked at it.
If you look closely at the instagram there is another reflection behind Hayley just over her right shoulder and also one in front of the traffic light post. I wonder if one of them could be Natalie Holt of Raven perhaps making sort of gesture?
