Hello Grant, I loved seeing your "favorites"...the last photo might need a tiny caption... Hayley: 'Thank you very much.' She took the words out of my mouth, Grant! God bless you, Joe

Hello everyone! I said at the beginning of my review that it was strange how a Hayley concert can consume a whole day. Well, make that a week!! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifThis is how my week has been:- Monday: Travelling to Chichester; Sound Check; Dinner with 'The Lads'; Concert; Time with Hayley and photo's; Tuesday: Travelling home (train delayed - got in at 3.15pm); switch on computer and write review in several sections and post (after scanning some 175 posts). Cook and eat dinner in between; Download pictures from flash card and view; go to bed about 2am. Wednesday: Work on pictures and begin posting. This takes most of the day and evening though I did have time to go shopping and watch some TV! Bed about 1am. Thursday: Friend insists on going out; sucumbed and got in about 2.15. Finished working on pictures and posted the last ones. A quieter evening and watched some more TV! Friday: Catalogue pictures from concert, copy to DVD and choose best for printing. Upload 15 images to dlab7.com and pay. JOB DONE!! Now who could ask for a better week than that!! Best wishes Grant

Hi everybody! Thank you for the pictures and the great reports. That was really a concert to remember. When I read through the reviews they reminded me very much of Telford which was 4 weeks ago. Such a long time. But you guys make the concerts become alive which we can't attend. Grant, what a busy week you had. I can imagine that you had hardly time for anything else. Thomas

Hi Roger, The following picture proves that your Chichester programme is absolutely unique. No 'e' Hi Stephany, sorry to disagree with you, but the *e* is very prominent whereas the *y* starts of very, very small...have another look ! Or prove me wrong someone ! Take care, love, Marianne

Hello everybody! Off-topic for this thread, but I think that photograph is a still from Hayley's appearance on 'American Dreams' a couple of years ago. If so, she was singing 'Who Painted The Moon Black?' Best Wishes, Richard

This morning, I received an email from Ian Tilley (Hayley's Musical Director). It included the following review from The Chichester Observer: Ian also included a review from the same source of Fiona's concert in Chichester a few days later. I will post it to her sub-board shortly. Many thanks, Ian! Roger

The Fab Four? Very nice! Thank you Roger for posting the article and thank you Ian for sending it to Roger If she returns to Chichester next year, I will most definitely try to attend as it looked like a very nice venue. Stephany

What an absolutely superb review!!
It has already been stated in various comments about this concert, that Hayley was on absolute top form and we severally agreed that we felt it was her best performance to date. Even Ian commented about the richness of her voice.
Now it would appear that at least one reviewer agrees and the audience certainly knew they had witnessed something special.
I particularly like the 'mutual love' comment when he refers to the two encores.
As for the "Fab Four" title, I wholeheartedly agree that Hayley has got herself, in my view, three of the best musicians, the world has to offer.
Thank you, Ian and Roger, for providing the article.
Best wishes Grant

I entirely agree Grant. What a shame the CCTV Operator hadn't connected a dvd recorder to the camera! It's also good to see that we have a new (part-time) news correspondent in Ian. Martin

"majestic voice" describes certainly what Hayley has. In fact, its impossible to describe her gifts adequately in mere words. Graeme
