Please stay on topic to this concert; off topic matters should be discussed in a more suitable thread or board.

Hayley was in Cardiff last night!

According to the two Il Divo fans who have briefly reported so far, she got a great reception. This is exactly what you'd expect for Hayley... in Cardiff; she is not exactly unknown there!

The atmosphere in there was amazing, waiting for the guys to come on. Hayley was very good and got some greta applause from the audience which was nice.

I must say I was so glad I got to see and hear Haley, she is a lovely young girl with an amazing voice, and I am happy to say she had a great reception.

I feel great just knowing she's back in the country! A little insight as to how the Kiwi's must feel when she's really back home, eh Belinda? Also, an insight of how much she must miss her family how ever much she enjoys (most of the time) touring. Let's hope she is enjoying revisiting her new flat and feeling at home again! She presumably went to Cardiff from Heathrow via London for at least an overnight? I used to find (provided of course you choose your flight times well) going over wasn't bad but coming back always took me forty-eight hours rather than twenty-four to re-adjust.

I received a very nice message from Vanessa on the Il Divo forum:

I got a fairly nice pic of Hayley in Cardiff. Hayley was wonderful, such a pure and beautiful voice and so pretty too ( I hate her not really just joking )

I wondered if you would like the photo for the gallery (if you have one) on the forum or her website.

Well of course I accepted, and here it is (I shall also mention it to Simon for the website). Thank you Vanessa!

Hi All,

That photo supplied by Vanessa is truly fantastic!
It looks like a professional photo, huh?
Dave, many thanks for posting it up for us

Nice post Dave,

It is interesting that the quality of pictures on the IL Divo site are particularly good, close up, in focus and bright. I can only imagine that the lighting is very good during their performances, or that their supporters are just good photographers, the above photo is probably the best we have seen of Hayley, in concert for many many months.

Hello everybody!

I've just found the following post on the 'Music Club' board of Il Divo's forum, which relates to this concert.

Hawaiian Trish (from Cardiff) wrote:-

I had first heard of Hayley a year or two ago on the Des & Mel show, sowwy she was 16, and I thought then what a lovely young girl and that with her voice she would go a long way.
Little did I expect to see her on the same show as our guys, WOW!!
She certainly has matured a great deal, her voice is so pure and tender, like a beautiful spring day so fresh, I hope that she gets the recognition that she so justly deserves.

That's all from me today.

Best Wishes,

Richard
