I love the red and black dress, strong and confident design, looks great. For some reason I started humming the very under used Red and Black theme from Les Mis as soon as I saw the picture yesterday morning.
The white one is really pretty too, so elegant and feminine.
Thanks to all you guys for all your reports and photos, YouTube is still crashing my main computer on me, so I'll have a look at them later on my laptop.

She sang the Moon Represents My Heart!?! I wonder how often she'll be doing that one. Thanks for the videos! They're great! Wonderfully performed by Hayley! I hope there are videos of all the songs! Not a huge fan of the new dress. Actually, not a fan at all. The colors, and the pockets in front aren't my favorite. If it weren't for the pockets, I wouldn't mind the rest of it so much, despite the colors. The Reiss dress is much prettier. I liked the way she had her hair here better than other times, too. I don't mean to be so critcal of her dress choices recently, but I really don't care for this new dress. Hopefully she'll pick out something nicer for the Paradiso tour. Libby you always seem to share my thoughts when it comes to fashion sense XD...I didn't care for the Red one either XD but said the reiss looked pretty this time (as in my earlier post in this thread) haha And Grant, omg lovely report! Enjoyed reading it! You're such a skilled writer!

Right, here is my effort for this evening. Sorry about the start, she launched straight into it after the previous song, and didn't give me time to get the camera into position before she started. I can't clap with a camera in my hand, and I always have to applaud Hayley. Anyway this was the finale of the show. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnQwOIwC52c Wuthering Heights Martin D

Hi Drew,
Thanks for that video. I didn't get that one and I have always loved The Mummers Dance.
I hope you won't mind me saying though that it wasn't just me, you seem to have the same problem with booming bass that I did. A high pass filter set at 200Hz gets rid of it. At least that's what I did.
I wonder how the set list was chosen for this show. Are they Hayley's own personal favourites, or the ones that fans have said they like.. but whatever it was I thought it was an inspired collection of songs.
I remember her saying to Tim before the encore that Never Saw Blue is "our song, our favourite". It is one of my favourites too.
I'm afraid I'm going to have to drip feed the vids at one a day because of the time it takes to process and upload them.
Oh and another comment - I do like the red dress. It is perhaps less feminine than most of her others, but it is different, and that's perhaps what throws people. It is certainly the right dress to sing "The Deadwood Stage" in. Not so sure about "All I ask of You" though.
But that's nit picking. It was a fabulous show by anybody's standards. I suspect if like me you are only going to get to one Hayley concert this year, that was the one to choose.

SongbirdMartin did say that the seating was quite steeply raked. You can see it in the video!

Beautiful video Drew, thanks.
I have a video that starts with a general view and zooms in that you might see in a day or few. You will then see how much zoom I used.

Oooh, more videos! Can't wait to watch! And thanks for more photos, Grant! Not saying the dress isn't feminine. It certainly isn't masculine. The design is just weird, and too bold. If the pockets weren't on the skirt, it would look a lot better. I really do like pretty dresses, though, and I guess that qualifies as more "feminine".

Hi everyone I've been away from HWI for a while (too long) thanks to school etc., but it was so wonderful to come back and find this thread today. School's been awfully busy and stressful as I've taken on more responsibilities, and I was getting rather weary. But looking at all this has really made my day/week/month! So thank you so much for that. For those great photos, for the amazingly detailed reports and for the lovely videos. I've yet to catch Hayley in concert but I really hope that day is coming soon! That song list sounds amazing and I will watch this space in the hope that more great videos will pop up i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif Esp those songs that she recorded years ago. I think she's looking very well. And those dresses! Very, very pretty. The red one's so striking! So thanks again for making this student-in-a-faraway-land's day and reminding her that with concerts at this standard, the wait will be worth it cheers, Joanne
