Hi everyone, Wow! Many thanks to Hayley Westenra Fans in Taiwan, Frank Lin, sk Ho for their videos and photos, and and the Elements Shopping Mall for putting it on. Hayley's Hong Kong trip has already turned into so much more than I think we were expecting that I have re-done the page I started on the website to make it bigger and more comprehensive, adding the White Christmas video and some of the shopping mall photos. I'll add more when the concert reports are in.
New Hong Kong trip page on HWI websiteThe shopping mall section is halfway down the page. Cheers, Dave |

With her back to us that looks like Hayley in the second photo accompanied by Tim Evans. Martin Pretty sure that's not Hayley. Her hair isn't that dark, and it's wavier in the other photos of her there, not to mention the totally different outfit. If it weren't for the hair, I might agree, and say that maybe she was wearing a black coat over her red dress. But the hair is much too straight, even on the ends, and you can see elsewhere that the ends of Hayley's hair have been styled in a wavy fashion. Even hanging straight down her back like that, Hayley's hair is not that thick-looking when I've seen her have it long and straight. It just falls differently, and plus it's not black. I think you'd be able to see a little bit of red even in that lighting. Her hair probably hasn't been "painted black" since her Pure photoshoot. Anyway, even the shape of the head isn't quite Hayley's either. It would seem perfectly logical for Hayley to be up there with her pianist and manager, but that's not the case here. The photo might have been taken before she walked on. And when she did, as we see her doing in a couple of Frank's photos, she was not wearing a jacket. Nope, nobody can ever fool me into thinking they're Hayley if they're not! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif |

Many thanks Frank for the videos and photos. A wonderful experience for you. I originally considered going to Hong Kong for these concerts but didn't have enough 'brownie' points! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif A combination of two concerts and this promotional event would have been unforgettable. Martin Ps to Hayley - if you are ever passing my local shopping centre........ |

Yes, good ones, thank you Richard and to those who uploaded them. I'll bet there were never so many cameras around when Hayley was busking in Christchurch! I can see she is popular over there.

Hi everyone, I had the pleasure of seeing Hayley's concert tonight. However, due to the strict enforcement of prohibition over photography in the concert, I only managed to do a few clandestine snapshots with my phone camera (which couldn't match Dave's professional camera  ). Fortunately, after the concert, there was an autograph signing session and I managed not only to get Hayley to sign on my copy of the programme, but also a photo with her. Here are some of the photos which I think are of passable quality:  Hayley was way more beautiful in person than in photos. I think it wouldn't be an overstatement to say she looked like a fairy tonight.   Yup that's me in the blue jacket and red shirt.  Finally, Hayley's autograph in my collection. Regards, Tin |

Thanks Tin!  I wish we could hear those three new songs. They sound interesting.  Hi Taylor, As far as I remember, the "new songs" were actually not songs sung by Hayley. They were pieces played by the orchestra while Hayley took short breaks. So you missed nothing Tin |
