Hi all,

Just back from another excellent Hayley concert!

Hayley in good form, despite suffering from a slight cold. The song list was quite different from last year's Christmas shows. After a little vocal glitch early on, she was in excellent form for the second half of the show. I'm sure Karsten and Grant will post more thorough reports and of course, photos later.

Hopefully, her cold clears for the rest of the shows and the weather doesn't cause any problems.

One big disappointment. Hayley has given up her short-lived career as a sleigh-bell shaker!


Regards
Bill

Hi Bill,

Thanks for your review - how was the song list different?

Hi Karsten,

Thanks for your lovely photo! I hope you had a good time at the concert! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

Hi,

as Bill already mentioned, no shaking sleigh-bells this time, but a few new songs - really enjoyable, in particular a carol from NZ.

As always I leave the hard work for Grant and want to post only two pictures for the curious ones amongst us.

Hello Dean.
I'm kind of jealous of all you guys, even if I did have the best weekend ever.
And Happy Birthday Dean, Joanne and Wombat.
Now Dean; did Hayley give you a kiss for your birthday
Regards Rob.

Hello and welcome Ed,

Thank you for joining the forum! Good that you saw Hayley's performance earlier on! I'm pleased that you enjoyed the evening.

Do keep checking back for info on some of the other concerts lined up

Best wishes from Pennsylvania in the USA,
Joe

She is wearing the white and silver dress I suggested she might wear. It does look wintry and magical, even if it's not the name of the tour. I was wondering if she might wear the new red and silver dress, too. I like them both. This is the best close-up of the dress we've seen so far. And her hair looks lovely. The arrival photo is one of the prettiest I've seen.
Oh, and for once, she's wearing a clothing brand I recognize, The North Face. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif Must be the new coat she mentioned.

I'm looking forward to more photos and reports (particularly the song list).

Hi,

It was a pleasure to meet again with all the HWI members, old an new (i. e. Ed).

The wonderful concert as well as this gathering was worth again every mile and every hour of the journey.

To keep things going, here are a few more pictures...
