RE: Haley to play Lollapalooza 2012

As far as luck....ever since I found out about Carnegie, way back when, I've been putting in a dollar a week "Haley Lottery" purchase (considering how expensive that trip might be  ).
....and what would you do if you hit with this, you say?
(After taking care of my finances and family)
This is what I was thinking.... Hire Haley, Her Sis, Mom and Dad (and recently I've added Haley's band and Casey) to perform a private event for some of us 'long time' Haliens.
The set would include a handful of each, Haley's, Casey's originals, a couple of duets.... I would love to hear "Bennie and the Jets" live, and have Haley do a Heart song, "Barracuda" "Straight On" or "Magic Man" and end it with The Reinharts doing a medley of Beatles songs of their choosing. (the last songs need to be "Golden Slumber, Carry that Weight, and The End" by the Beatles)
I would then try to get Interscope, or whoever it involves, to allow us to record the event and sell it with all proceeds going to a musical foundation run by the Reinharts to encourage aspiring young and talented musicians....
A little bit of something for everyone.... 
LOL ...yes, in my idle time, sometimes my obsessive compulsive mind goes into 'over think' scenario mode LOL. That's where I would put any luck I have towards
As Casey sings..."A boy can dream..." 
Well, yes, "A Boy Can Dream" ... and sometimes those dreams can meet fruition.
I'm not interested in trying for one of your "Lolla" tickets should you win them, but should you hit your "Haley Lottery" jackpot, I'd be honored to be considered one of the 'long time Haliens', although I don't know how you are defining that (I'm hoping from the Haleyloonies thread). I'd love to be a part of an initimate concert such as you are suggesting, and I love the idea of a foundation to encourage and support aspiring young talent.
I am amused, however, by your idea that the Reinharts can do a "medley of their choosing" but must include the songs that you listed. Unless they would have automatically chosen to include those songs, that might limit their choice, might it not? (LOL-- the songs are wonderful, and I can't imagine Harry, Patty, Haley or Angie objecting, but I believe you get my gist.)

RE: Haley to play Lollapalooza 2012
Haleyloonies is a badge of honor IMO, back in the days of little Haley news and using a 'comment's' section instead of a blog for our Haley fix.... well that's just plain nuts LOL As Slezak had coined "we're a little obsessed"
When I said songs of their choosing, I meant 3 or 4 of the Beatles' catalog (I'm thinking we're already pushing pushing 2 hrs at this point)... and attach the "Golden Slumbers-The End" at the end, I just think those three songs would be a hell of a way to end the set and show .
But it's just idle dreaming at this point, though
Funny after all those versions of BATJ when she was touring.... and I still would love to hear her belt it out LIVE "Bennie, Benniieee and the Jeeeetss!"

BIG NOTE ABOUT BEING THE WINNER
Quote:Please note that the drawing for this prize will occur at 9:00 AM EST on Monday, July 23, 2012. If you are selected as the potential Grand Prize winner, you will be contacted at the daytime phone number you provided on your entry form. You will be contacted only once, and if there is no response on the first attempt, you will be disqualified and an alternate potential Grand Prize winner will be selected.
I haven't heard from Tusk yet...my phone is on vibrato & "Call Me" cover by HR...
Oh, and Tusk...I see the dilemma you had with your new Haley Avatar...'should I include the whole Haley Head and not include the horizontal dress line, or should I sacrifice the the top of the head for a little of the dress?' Since you are a guy that likes shoulders...the whole head and no visible dress would be very interesting.

RE: Haley to play Lollapalooza 2012
Alas my phone was silent this morning. I sent in an entry each day too
Oh well, still have my ticket and the event to look forward too.
Yah the feminine shoulders are always a plus, the hoop ear rings are also a favorite, and the straight hair is a fine 'cherry on top' to the ensemble.
She really hit a home run with that look. Simple and effective.

^ :Awww figgle wiggles. But I am happy your bases are covered and you'll be there anyway.
As for my hopes and dreams being crushed by this tragic news, no worries; for there is still a small window of time open for persuading Fireman Bob that his primordial instinct to spend two weeks roaming around in the mountains shooting forest animals with his friends is not so worthy of his vacation time that he can't shave a few days off for taking me to see Haley Reinhart at Lollapalooza. I haven’t even tried extortion or blackmail yet, so I figure the odds are still in my favor (barring the strong possibility of me getting run over by a fire truck in the process).
As for that “buzzenator” contestant… well hell’s bells… he sure proved to be a worthy opponent and a fierce competitor didn't he… I thank him for a good game and hope he too has a Plan-B.

Sir Tusk, you probably should have received a medal or award of some type for your heroic efforts to keep that comments section alive
back in the days of little Haley news and using a 'comment's' section instead of a blog for our Haley fix.... well that's just plain nuts LOL ...
Yes, we were all so innocent (or slow) then. Meanwhile ("back at the ranch," in Dallas), Miguel was steadily crafting this little gem called haleyfans.com, to which he, periodically, attempted to direct us through that comments section. Miguel, my sincere apologies for being so very dense!
As Slezak had coined "we're a little obsessed"
Yes, just a little
Lovinda, where, oh where do you come up with these adorable phrases like "figgle wiggle?" LOL!

Beats the hobdangles out of me MAE. That was the birth of "figgle wiggle" as far as I know. And thank you also for that message to me in the music thread about John posting great sets. It spurred me to go back and watch a video I had previously skipped over, and that video ended in my collection of most loved clips.

Happy to oblige!
When I reflect back, it's really interesting to consider the various contributions that we Haliens add to haleyfans.com. It's quite remarkable, really!
Which makes me realize, haleyfans.com has recently had or is quickly approaching it's first anniversary (I'm not exactly certain when that date was/is).
Therefore, I offer a toast: To Miguel, whose unceasing and tireless efforts have brought forth upon Haliens a wonderful meeting point for a variety of delightful discussions and listening! Long live Miguel!
