Thanks Joe for confirming that! I was beginning to think I might have gone mad!
Thanks too, I had a good day as a zombie-although it was emotional saying goodbye to everyone -it was just (us) the school leavers dressed up-we got to terrify the school for the morning haha..might post a photo soon...off topic though,sorry...back on topic-ish-i guess maybe a zombie might have added the extra Anna to the French wikipedia site lol!

My question is in regards to Hayley's album promotions.

I know she did a lot of promotions when Pure came out. But, did she do that much for Odyssey and Treasure? Did she go to each country as the album was released, as she seems to be doing (so far) with Paradiso? I know she went to New Zealand, but I'm just wondering about the other countries. Like, did she go to Australia when her other albums were released there?

I'm just wondering whether Hayley's new management is doing anything different. Are they trying harder for this album than what was done for her last few albums? And is that because of the album itself, or because the management in general is trying to promote Hayley more (as she deserves)?

Okay, so the reason I'm asking is to try to get a clue as to whether there really is any hope of Paradiso promotions in the US. Of course, why else would I be so interested?

Hi Libby,

Looking back, I'd say that a CD release and tour seemed to miss by a few months. And remember back to Winter Magic, how there was little promotion even in the UK.

I would have to say, as far as the US releases of Odyssey and Celtic Treasure went, that Hayley and her management did put in an effort to tour (either solo or as part of a group).

However this backfired a bit in early 2005, as Odyssey took a bit longer to produce, thereby postponing many US performances to the autumn and spring of '06.

Now with the Celtic Treasure release, we saw Hayley really capitalize on her then-association with Celtic Woman.

I hope that Bandana will take any US promotions to a new level. Now that the Memorial Day concert was a success, Hayley's management may wish to see Hayley on some of the morning talk shows.

I'm kinda glad that the decision was made to stagger Paradiso release dates.

Can anyone tell me if Haley has ever recorded a piece called Carrickfergus and if she has,what is the name of the album.

[Martin]

Hi Russell

Welcome to the forum.

Hayley hasn't recorded this particular track but it is on the Celtic Woman album "A New Journey" which features Hayley but in this instance it is sung by Orla.

Hello all, I saw pictures of Hayley performing with Ronan keatings, is there any video to this? (It's only Christmas, I presume), or atleast a link to the topic where this event is discussed

[Richard]

Hello Simba!

Hayley performed with Ronan Keating at the Emeralds and Ivy Ball in November 2009. There isn't a video, but you can read about the event HERE.

Hi everyone,

When was the last time Hayley performed Who Painted the Moon Black live?

Cheers,
Jillian

[Simba]

Thanks Richard! But no one really even mentioned about the performance in that topic, strange really because I thought it was quite a big thing for a collab with Ronan Keating (since he's really famous) oh well.

I think it was at Buxton Opera House on 22nd August 2010. Reply 151 from Grant on page 11 of this Buxton concert thread contains the set list.

I knew I had heard her sing it last year. Was trying to remember where. That must be it!

Hi Colin, Martin, Jillian and everyone

Ha! I saw Jillian's post this morning before heading to church and knew that I'd heard Hayley sing WPTMB fairly recently and had it in mind to check my set lists.

I remember now that Hayley had chosen Buxton to reprise some of her favourite songs - and what a night it was - I found myself reading my own review again tonight too! (thanks Colin! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif)

I very much doubt she will have sung it since considering the time Hayley's been spending on Paradiso recently.

Best wishes
Grant

[Jillian]

Thanks guys!

How clever you all are! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

I remembered that she sang it at a concert last August too, and I wasn't even there. I would've had to look up the name of the venue, though.

[martindn]

I should have worked it out. I was only at 3 concerts last year, and she wouldn't have sung it on her Battle of Britain tour, not on Chrsitmas Wishes. That leaves only Buxton. And I agree Grant, that was a wonderful show. Happy memories!
