Mags on G4Central has some stunning pics and I'm sure she wouldn't mind me pointing you in that direction

Hi Cathy and Mags,
Great photos. Hayley's dress looks like it was inspired by the 'Poppy Appeal'

Best Wishes,

Graham

Hi Graham-that was my immediate thought when I saw it although some people said it was her valentines dress being red.

Hi Ron

Thanks very much for your report - its great to hear that Hayley seems to be back on top form again. It sounds a wonderful concert and I cant wait now until I see her again in Oxford on Wednesday.

I'm so glad that you were there to support Hayley in this her first concert back in the UK this year.

Hope to bump into you at a another concert soon.

Hi All,
Here's a great review from Rosanna from Jon's forum:
jonathanansell.forums.umusic.co.uk/t/2181.aspx?PageIndex=4

Hi everyone, well Jon was as fabulous as ever. Hayley and Raven, the girl instrumental group were also brilliant. Raven remind me of Bond, but younger, and two play violin, one viola and one cello.

The backdrop for the stage, was black with twinkling stars, which kept winking in and out, lovely.

Jon and Hayley's voices blend beautifully together, and when they sang All I Ask of You together, it was magical. I love that song, its so beautiful, and to hear them singing it was pure heaven.

They also sang Para Sempre Amigos, which they sang together at Music on Fire at Sandhurst. The power coming out of their voices was just so awesome, that I wished it could have gone on for ever.
They did sing another duet, think it may have been Un Giorno Per Noi. Jon sang Canto Della Terra, Se, Arranjuez, My Own True Love, and All I Ask of You solo.
Hayley sang Scarborough Fair, I know You by Heart and (I think, not too sure of the next two) May It Be and Never Saw Blue. If I missed any, or got them wrong, Im sure someone will know.
Hayley was wonderful, I don't have any of her albums, but think I will be sometime soon.
As someone else said, hearing Jon sing live, makes you appreciate how wonderful and powerful his voice is. The sheer effort he puts into singing is phenomenal, he must be so tired, but he never looks even slightly tired. He did forget some of the words to one song, but then he sings so beautifully, no one cared. Jon thanked everyone for coming, and wished everyone to have a wonderful Valentine's day next week, really sweet of him. Just a fantastic night, and everyone going will have a wonderful night and wonderful memories.
It finished about 9.40, and some of us went round to the stage door and waited for Jon. It was so cold round there, the wind was really blowing strong cutting into you. It was really cold in the day when we were walking round the town, but it always seems colder at night. Infact I didn't think that Jon would stop or that maybe his management (or people looking after him would let him), but he did, and as always he was lovely, signing programmes, posters (think Jules got one from the theatre) and having photos taken.

Had a lovely photo taken with him, he is always so patient with everyone. I did ask him if there would be a dvd of this tour, but he said not this time, maybe the second time round?

So it was another unforgettable Jon night, so to everyone going, you will have a wonderful night, and fantastic memories.

Thanks for the G4 link, Cathy!

I've found all your threads on Jonathan's forum, and I'll post the links one at a time as the tour progresses.

There are some more photographs of Hayley and Jonathan in Rhyl towards the bottom of this page.

Best Wishes,

That new red dress certainly is different. The flower features at the bottom remind me of election rosettes. I am looking forward to seeing the Palladium performance and the live chemistry between them. The photos imply they relate well on stage and she is happy with her partner, something that did not seem to be the case when she sang duets at Woburn. I think, if it is standing at a stage door we should forego any meeting. She must not be put at risk. I am thinking of the Palladium and that stage door. These nights are too cold.
