Paige! Can you get there? ? 800 miles (13hrs)by road. I'm not sure. I'd love to! My parental said no to buying tickets but my friend has a tendency to spoil me and he likes Hayley too, so I might! And I should hate to miss her again! |

So she didn't go east coast or west coast, just somewhere in the middle in the hope that everyone would be able to get there. I really think she needs support in this, if she is going to be persuaded to do more shows in the US.

Her management sure doesn't make it easy, Martin. I understand the logic in choosing someplace in the middle, but at the same time all I think is...Wisconsin? Don't get me wrong, I'm thrilled she's coming to the States, but of all places Wisconsin seems strange. Maybe it's because she was there before, who knows.

Well, I suppose wherever she chose would be easier for some than others. Choosing somewhere in the middle means everybody has a chance to see her if they are able to make the effort. We over here even always have to travel to see Hayley, if I waited for her to come to Leicester before going to see her I would still be waiting. For sure, over here the distances are vastly less, but sometimes it means a night (or two) away even so. I think most people in the USA could do Wisconsin with one or at most two nights out. And Hayley often chooses unusual locations, not always the big cities. I can remember her Kings Lynn concert. Kins Lynn is an out of the way small town in Norfolk, and local people I spoke to could not beleive that an international artist of Hayley's standing would perform in a place like that in an 800 seat theatre. but she did and it was special. I think Hayley is doing this for her US fans, and I would hope that as many as possible will make the effort to be there. I almost feel tempted myself.

Martin D In the middle it might be but it is still a long way from most HWIers. 2000miles from Libby, 800miles from Paige, 800 miles from Joe, 850miles from Taylor etc. And if you move closer to one you move further from another. Hopefully the choice of Madison is good enough to allow Hayley to fill or nearly fill a theater. Don't forget this has not yet been confirmed. It could be, though I doubt it, that there are other shows in the pipeline. |

I also may be able to let a couple people hitch a ride from chicago if the hubby approves. That might be easier to fly into than Madison
