I love the new dress! Hayley has gotten a lot of dresses this year, hasn't she? Thank you Grant for the outdoor photos and James for the indoor (I presume) photos!

Hi All, Many thanks to Roger, Dave, Richard, Grant, James and Drew for your excellent coverage from last night's Concert... I was very intrigued to read your Concert Reports which are all wonderful. Roger thank you for sharing the Set List with us - too. No doubt many of the people who hadn't witnessed Hayley performing live before until last night, will have been well and truly stunned and "Hayleywowed"... (just like all the dedicated members of 'HWI' who were present too!) i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif As Richard mentioned, it will be very exciting to see Hayley performing with the Raven Quartet in the autumn!  Thank you Grant and James for your superb photographs... and Drew thank you for your excellent videography WOW! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif I adore Hayley's new dress - the pattern and colours are gorgeous. Some of the pictures of Hayley in this thread remind me of pastel paintings or oil/ water colour paintings... by impressionist artists... i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif I was most impressed to hear how many dedicated members of 'HWI' were able to attend this event to support Hayley! What a strong and faithful team! Well done everybody! Andrew  |

Hi you lucky ones! Thank you Richard, Grant, Roger, Dave, James and Drew for reviews, pictures and videos. According to your reports this concert was really a gem. Although she didn't appear until the second half Hayley sang singing 13 songs. That's amazing! Very thoughtful of her coming out for a chat during the break of the soundcheck. Well done, Richard for asking Kathryn.  Thomas |

Well I put my pictures up on facebook but they should be publically available for everyone. If anyone has a problem let me know and I'll move them somewhere else. www.new.facebook.com/album.php?aid=45280&l=169ef&id=657121956Couple of tasters and if anyone wants a full sized copy for zooming and cropping etc I can send it to them. I do have some video clips as well but I've not got around to putting them up anywhere. Afraid they aren't brilliant since my camera didn't like the lights and I spent more time watching and listening than snapping.    |

You have to log in to facebook to see the photos daemonbyte. They are very good though!
Thanks for the 1,010 posts Congrats Grant! I don't feel that 1,010 is a big milestone like 1,000 but I never mind getting congratulated on an achievement!

Hi It was great to meet with so many at Koko in Camden. I think Hayley would have been very impressed to see so many familiar faces bearing in mind the short notice of the event. We passed the rear entrance to Koko just before 2pm and noticed Rachel and Stephanie from the Ravens outside. We stopped and spoke to them, letting them know that we saw them last week at Kilworth House. They were very happy that we recognised them and were really chatty. One thing that they said was that they were now with Hayley for the whole of the River of Dreams tour! I took quite a few pics without flash but here are just a few that are worth showing    Here is Hayley with the Champagne (I forgot the flash)  This final one shows Hayley leaving with Stephanie and Rachel (I think to sort out the bottle of Champagne!)  Oh and finally our table companions Dave and Martin  George |

Simon Lole confirmed last night that he would be on the piano for Hayley (and conducting) for most but not all of the River of Dreams Tour. The Raven Quartet and The Pavao Quartet would be taking turns in supporting Hayley. Is anyone else confused or is it just me?  Roger |

Hello Roger I'm with you in confusion heaven!  We've now heard from several sources that 'Raven' will support Hayley throughout the ROD tour so I hope that proves to be the facts of the matter. Guess we need to keep an eye on their web Myspace page Best wishes Grant P.S. I've just looked at Raven's Myspace page which has been updated . The only Hayley concert NOT showing is Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, they appear to be supporting Hayley at all the others. |

I also thought that we did very well to put up such a large support group in such a short time. I'm very glad we did, Hayley seemed happy with the turnout and did thank us for being there - and when the star of the show says that, well, what else is there to say? Best wishes Grant |

It seems unlikely that the Ravens would post/update that info
- unless the dates were definite.
Anyway, Hayley's hardly likely to sack them
- she treated them to champagne at KOKO.
Looking forward to a musical treat ...
Paddy
