Regarding "returns only", I was at the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra last night at NCH, which was advertised as sold out, and there were many empty seats. When we enquired we were told some people just did not show, and others asked if they could sell them on their behalf. Enjoy tonight  |

I love the looks of that setlist! Amalia, and Let Me Lie!! I love her song choices here. I'll look forward to any photos or videos taken by tourists.  Though if you live nearby, you could hardly be called a tourist, could you? ![]()  I know, we'll call you a spectator this time. Cool! I'm the concert went well. I almost didn't recognize Chloe!  -Taylor  I know!!! I actually don't think I ever would have placed her if I hadn't seen her name as the tweeter. I think part of it was the angle her face was turned, and with her hair, because I looked at other recent photos on her page, and she was much more recognizable there. LOL And she's living in LA now? What's she up to there? |

Wow! Amazing Set list! I can't wait to hear Let me lie, omg! I think she performed that live only once ageeees back, which we don't have a video of, and if I remember correctly, sound check?  My dreams of her singing Summer Rain will finally come true I guess! She sang I believe, and now Let me lie, and there's just Summer Rain and Listen to the wind on the main check list that's left! And it'd have been amazing if Chloe gave a guest performance or a duet |

Here's an interesting photo from the RTÉ Concert Orchestra's Facebook page. I think I can see some familiar faces in the front rows!

Quite a stunning show at the National Concert Hall , Dublin last night,
I was really pleased to see Hayley looking healthy, happy and radiant after her short break since the Union Chapel London, concert,
In the meantime she has been home to New Zealand, got married and I hope got to spend some time in peace and quiet with her new husband.
The whole concert was quite dramatic for me because we were seated only a few feet away from Hayley,
it is truly a privilege to watch her sing at such close quarters.
I refused to look at the songlist on the programme before the concert began, I want some element of surprise and boy did I get it,
With very little recognisable introduction Hayley sang "Let me lie on grasses green.............the phrasing and tone even more pure than the album version.
It is not often in life something causes your very being to vibrate in sympathy with an outside force, but this was one of those moments and it was thrilling to the very soul,
and for a few minutes nothing else in the world existed except for Hayley's voice and her own lyrics and it was quite beautiful.

A most impressive experience: A confident Hayley in tune with her 'favourite orchestra', each challenging each other towards high drama. Some friends that saw her - for the first time - marvelled at how a tiny girl's voice could be heard over the power of the orchestra; Others remarked at how friendly, sincere and down to earth a person she seemed on stage; Others were delighted at the variety of her songs, many of which were familiar and 'not just her own stuff'. For me, the most moving song was I Believe, powerful, dramatic and emotionally expressive AND with Hayley's own lyrics. Of my 44 Hayley concerts, easily the most moving, in each and every song.
