Hi all

[galvin]

Hello everyone. Im a new fan of hayley, actually never heard of her until trolling through youtube, i came across scarborough fair from celtic women dvd. The pure beauty that comes out of her mouth made me cry in utter delight, the effect it had on me is so much i cant describe it with words, i fear they will never express how she touched my soul. I have since purchased everything she has done, and adore it all. One day i hope she comes to sydney, i would pay anything to see her live. My wife is now also a fan as well.

Hello Galvin and welcome to the forum. I think we all understand how you felt when you first heard Hayley's voice. Some of us have been supporting her for several years and we still can't find the words to describe her voice, so you've got no chance!

Hayley has appeared in Sydney in the past and I'm sure it is only a question of time before she does so again. Any details will be posted to the Hayley In Concert board and added into the main schedule as soon as we have them. Hopefully, you will be able to see her. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy your time here and I look forward to your future posts.

Best wishes from a cold and rainy England!
Roger

Hello Galvin, and welcome to the Forum!

It's great to see a new member from Sydney, and I'm sure you'll soon get to know our Marianne and Graeme from nearby Lake Illawarra. I've learnt a lot of geography here! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Edit: See next post!

I hope you will enjoy your visits here and I look forward to your future posts.

Best Wishes from London,

Richard

Hi Galvin,
A very warm welcome from me in Wollongong !! Whereabouts in Sydney do you live, if I may ask ??
We have been following Hayley since 2005...saw her in concert in Christchurch in January 2006. We adore her voice and the kind of person she is !!
Her music is brilliant isn't it ? Magnificent !! Superb !! Unique !!
Look forward to your future posts as well.
Have you decided on a favorite song yet ??
Mine is * One Fine Day * from Treasure and * Laudate Domino * from Odyssey SE .
Love, Marianne

Hi Galvin

A very warm welcome to the forum. I'm sure that you'll be pleased you joined us - as everything you could possibly want to know about Hayley is here I'm certain that Hayley will be performing somewhere near you at some point in the future and I can assure you, seeing her perform live and perhaps meeting her for the first time is an experience you will always treasure (sorry about the pun). In the meantime, perhaps you can "make do" with the "Hayley In Concert" thread where you can see many fantastic photos of Hayleys performances and of her meeting HWI members etc. - if you haven't looked already that is i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

I very much look forward to your future posts.

Best regards

Hi Galvin and welcome to the forum!

I also discovered Hayley recently thanks to Celtic Woman and particularly 'Scarborough Fair'.
I do hope you have the opportunity to see her perform live soon!

Very best wishes from Paris,

Hi Galvin

Things have been a bit hectic for me today so I apologise for not adding my welcome to this thread sooner.

I can tell from your initial post that you have a very serious case of "Hayleywowedness" and I am sorry to say that the only cure is more Hayley!

As I say to all "newbies", I feel a little jealousy of you because you have that special first meeting to look forward to. Not that every meeting with Hayley isn't special, it is and what's more, Hayley has a way of making each one of us feel special by some of her little ways.

For example, the last exchange of posts on the Chichester thread between Martin and I saying we still can't believe that it is really happening and my first time was two years ago!

We are a very friendly bunch family here and I'm sure you will make lots of friends as we all seem to do. I look forward to your posts and hearing about your first meeting with Hayley.

Best wishes
Grant

Hi again, thankyou everyone for the great welcome. i live in parramatta, sydney. My favourite song is summer rain, from treasure, also wuthering heights from her dvd is awesome too. Im from new zealand, but moved over here well before hayley became famous.

[Richard]

Hello Galvin!

'Summer Rain' is one of my favourite songs on 'Treasure' too. The only trouble is, we seem to have had rather a lot of it this year. Come on Hayley, please write a nice song about sunshine for your next album! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Best Wishes from overcast London,
