On one of the songs I recorded, I started swaying to the music. so can't post that one....  That is true, one of the things you miss out on is swaying to the music and singing along....then again, I've seen me dancing and heard my singing, so in the end, not much of a loss

One thing I will forever be grateful for this Haley experience....I didn't much care about how I looked, never was really one to be in Photos...since Haley however, I care a bit more and decided to lose the facial hair

What a ride it's been!  One advantage that was also a disadvantage in Dublin was I chose to shoot from the sound booth at the back with tall fans in front of me instead of up with Babbs & Pat & NUG at the edge of the stage. The heads in the way meant that a lot of what I shot at Whelans was off of the lower resolution projection screen above the stage. The advantage is that the projection from a fixed camera in the balcony that we weren't allowed in, clearly showed the heads of Babbs & Pat & NUG at the stage edge, enhancing my memories of my dear friends experiencing it with me. The full stage view lower resolution fixed image also gives a nostalga feel of watching Haley perform on a vintage "American Bandstand, Hullabaloo or "SHINDIG" TV show from the 60's so I guess that's an appropriate vibe for Haley's retro songs.
And now that I've been burning DVDs of what I shot, I get to experience it many times more each burn. I mixed about 50% watching/enjoying without camera and 50% recording at both the Glasgow & Dublin shows. It helped having the XAtlantic Setlist cheat sheet to know what songs were coming up. Thx X!
I (as well as Haley) felt a stronger fan passion in Scotland than Ireland. You could see Haley was just thrilled at the reaction & interaction of the audience there. Dublin was a different vantage point for me making each experience unique, which is why I feel no redundancy going to multiple shows of each tour. ie, 4 Idol tour cities, 3 PMJ's of one tour, 3 Haley US shows, 2 Haley Europe shows. Something a bit different each time like Haley & Angie's "I Will" Duet.

RE: EUROPEAN "Better" Tour (SPRING 2017)
I haven't been able to catch up on all the posts and videos yet, just got home this morning (3:45 am here). What a trip!! Seeing Haley, talking to her again but with my amazing Haliens with me...I'll never forget it. If I can figure out how, I'll post my videos. I only took 4, I wanted to enjoy the experience. Touring around the country after in my little speedy rental car was just breath taking. I covered a lot of ground (Clifden, Galway, Dingle, Cork, Waterford and Kilkenny), and a million little towns and amazing sights in between. I'm feeling like I want to rent an apartment there for a couple of months and really see everything!!
It was nice to meet my new Halien friends and see Babbs and Himm again - I couldn't have asked for a better group to spend my first 2 days with.
