Well, what your post brings out, Graeme, is something we hoped would be reciprocated for both of them: each is wowing the other's fans. Could we possibly get two for one on one CD? Perhaps, 'Tour memories' pr perhaps this time next year but early enough to buy as presents?

Interesting songlist and selection of duets. In fact "How Many Stars" is also on the NZ dvd with "Teddy".
I thought Hayley looked very well indeed and I look forward to Reading tomorrow when we can give her a big welcome (looked like Jonathan was getting all the attention after the show!).

Hi folks-could not resist the chance to see Hayley again so went to Rhyl where we were met by sunshine and no snow but the best was yet to come.
Hayley said she was back from her summer holiday in New Zealand and she looks very well and as lovely as ever but better.
This was Hayley 2009 with a new look and raring to go so much that I did wonder when Jonathan would get to sing solo but after a duet and three Hayley solos he had his chance.
I will not tell you what Hayley and Jonathan sang only to say that you will not be disappointed.
She wore three different dresses during the show-2 of them new to me but maybe only 1 new to others.You will not be shown any of the dresses but you may see them on Jonathans website.
There is a show brochure at £5 but when we came out there were show brochures signed by Hayley and Jonathan at £10.
Hayley introduced another Kiwi to us-not sure whether she brought him back with her.
Andy Moore was also there and accompanied Hayley in a solo.
Raven were also there and they did 2 sessions,one before the interval and one after and I think they were very good.
We were told before the performance that photography would not be allowed and people should not take them in.
I expected the "camera police" to be very strict but far from it-the second half became a sort of free for all and there were flashes all over the hall without any intervention.I felt sorry for Hayley as she is not used to this but maybe this is a feature of Jonathans concerts as there was plenty of noise from his mainly female fans who also had cameras.
There were no signs of a "Meet and Greet" session after the show and we decided not to wait to see Hayley when she left as she had already said how cold she had been since she came back and there was a gale blowing off the sea which was very close to the venue-not very comfortable for Hayley to stand and chat and I think this was her first show since she came back so she would be quite tired.There may be better conditions inland at Reading tomorrow so I hope you all get to chance to speak to her.
I hope I have given you all a flavour of what you can expect at Reading and the other venues.
Ron

Hi Richard I see you've found our threads then Keep a lookout as we have a review one for each venue, so it's worthwhile checking the following day to see if the reviews are up from the various members of our site who are attending the various venues. Normally, we try to take pics galore, but mainly without flashes as they are only of use at 12 feet or less, so doesn't cause the artistes on the stage to be 'dazzled' by the bursts. I hope any of your members going to the show enjoy it as much as our members have. We are hoping for a duets album off the back of the Tour and it has been mentioned as 'being in talks', so fingers crossed everyone Thomas - I'll keep a lookout for you at Bristol |
