Haley at the Troubadour July 23rd

Yes thank you Tusk! I love Rachel's close up videos, but I like the the perspective of seeing the whole band with Haley and it gives you a feel for the room and what the crowd is like too! I love how Casey is getting into the music! He's so supportive of his musical bud Haley!!

I was trying to figure out why Haley was fussing with the mic stand. Then the reason became clear in your vid.

It's great having the two perspectives -- they are very different visually. I like them both.

I'm glad that Scott came to the show and appeared on stage for Creep. I am all for those two having a close relationship. The performance had a nice informal quality about it that comes through in the Tusk video.

In the various videos we've seen I also really like Haley's look, style and overall stage presence. It is more mature and professional. I hope she continues on that track.

I message off and on w/ "Better" co-writer, Anders Grahn, who just returned to England, I congratulated him that "Better" would be the single from the EP,

So now we know why Windy City Live wasn't able to get a co-writer release from Anders Grahn in time for Haley to perform "Better" on the show monday July 6th...He was hard to track down in England. Oh Well...it wasn't a wasted trip to Chicago for Haley since we got to see her perform with Midnight July 3rd.

Thanks for the nice perspective without those troublesome backlights when at the edge of the stage Tusk.

Since I Periscoped "Better", I don't have that one on video obviously.

So here's my first! And it's the worst of all my videos, for this song they decided to shine a bright blue light half the time

Good or Bad

---

The lighting is much better on my vids from here on out!

"You Were There"

Great Videos Rachel and ... of course most of all GREAT PERFORMAnces...

and even more a couple great songs.

That Good or Bad.. that was intense ! There really was a mesmorizing groove to that performance... I loved it.

Has that song been on the site here anywhere ? I'm not checking in as much lately with other concerns going on.

Also I really liked her "Love is worth fighting for" again... a lot.

You guys are such great fans ... mutiplying lol..

She debuted Good or Bad w/ co-writer, Anders Grahn at Room5 (also, co-writer of Better)

I bumped into Clare Reynolds, co-writer of "Love is Worth Fighting For" at the Troubadour, congratulating her on the song making the EP

Greg, fabulous picture of Haley & Jacob performing at the Troubadour on Feb. 23 You always manage to capture the essence of Haley in your pictures

Many thanks Rachel and Tusk for the awesome pictures and videos of Haley and the band. I’m happy her musical buddies are always there to back her up. That’s a testament to how much folks enjoy working with her. As others have said the videos really complement each other to offer us two very nice perspectives. I love the close-ups on Haley because she is so expressive which adds a lot to her performances for me. But you do miss out on the overall look and scale of the show as well as the playing and interactions of the other musicians. Thanks Tusk for posting Greg’s gorgeous photographs and using them for your Youtube thumbnails. They add a very nice and elegant touch.

I love the originals and “Love Is Worth Fighting For” is probably my favorite right now and “My Cake” is second so I do hope it makes the EP along with her scat. I want to hear a studio version of it someday. Haley always sings great on “Better” but the song sounds much better to me with the full band. I especially like Courtney Leonard’s bass riffs in it. I agree with everyone, Haley’s stage presence has really grown from her time touring. Haley uses her whole being to express the vibe of the song and her movements are so smooth and fluid. Not too long ago this was one of the main criticisms by the naysayers.

Thanks again.
