Hayley is scheduled to make a return visit to the Victoria Hall in Stoke-on-Trent on Saturday 18th October. It will be a charity event with proceeds being divided between UNICEF and COPA. This event has not yet been officially confirmed by Bedlam Management but I am assured it is highly likely to go ahead. Information thanks to Danny "dkeeno"! Roger COVERAGE OF THE EVENT BEGINS HERE[/b][/URL]. |

Excellent news! I remember Danny saying at Gawsworth that he was hoping to arrange another one. Perhaps I won't sit quite so close to the front this time!  Best wishes Grant |

Hi Roger, is this another concert, or a repeat of an auction I have heard about somewhere for UNICEF, or both  Graham |

This is a concert, to raise funds for 2 charities. The concert will be standard Hayley format with her singing her songs and then the accompanying musicians playing a few pieces as well.

Hello Danny, Thanks for this info. I trust it will be even more successful than the event in Gawsworth Hall (in Macclesfield if memory serves me correctly) last year. Best regards, Joe |

Hi Joe,
Gawsworth Hall is nothing to do with me. My concert last year was also at the Victoria Hall like this one. As well as raising money for charity i want to showcase the amazing facilities Stoke has for concerts so pretty much all my concerts happen there. I am hoping that this event will be more successful, we certainly had amazing reviews last time! Im already looking into some local artists to perform in the foyer before hand to create a memorable atmosphere, suggestions from people are much appreciated, although please note i cant take suggestions on anything specifically to do with Hayley as i have no influence over that.
Danny

Hi Everyone, I am not sure if I will be able to make this concert..... the distance is a bit off-putting... i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifSeriously, I am absolutely delighted that Hayley is returning to Stoke-on-Trent, It will be fantastic to see her performing in my home town. Danny has been in touch with me for a quite a while about this concert after he asked me to design a poster for it which is going to be used and printed. This is the finished design.  Dazza |

Hi Dazza Love your poster - quite the artist aren't you! :wink: The last concert here was amazing, just a word of warning though, to everyone intending to go to this one who didn't go last time. Some of us had front row seats which are very close ( and I mean very close) to the stage which is very high. My nose was literally about 6 inches from the front of the stage. Other than that, it is a superb venue, with a very reasonably priced car park just opposite and an excellent chinese about 5 minutes walk away. Just ask Gordon what he thought of 'The Puddings'!!  See everyone there! Best wishes Grant |

Hi Danny I hope we can count on you to give us the heads up as soon as you know when tickets go on sale.  There's nothing showing on the web site yet. OK, OK, I know I'm probably being impatient.  Best wishes Grant |

Dazza, Well done again. We're beginning to see the benefits of your artistic streak on this forum as well as your banner over at AAI. That's a nice choice of picture on the poster - is it from the Prayer photoshooots? Will it be odd asking Hayley to sign a piece of your own work?  Some of us had front row seats which are very close ( and I mean very close) to the stage which is very high. My nose was literally about 6 inches from the front of the stage. Hi Grant, How far back would you recommend? 2 or 3 rows or is it worth having a nose literally on the stage (maybe not ideal for our photographers)? James |

James Hi James I think Roger had an isle seat about 6 rows back. Seat spacing is quite tight, so I would think about there would be fine. Bear in mind as well that, with the stage being so high, a middle of the row seat still gives an excellent view. Best wishes Grant |

Hi Dazza, Great job on the poster. You should be very proud of it. A dedicated signed one would look better though Best wishes, Graham |
