What can I say about this show......
TOO AMAZING FOR WORDS! (but I will try, thats for sure)
This show for me, was probably absolutely one of the best, if not the best shows I have seen Damien do.
It was very different for us from the night before as we were very much PART of the show!
We were a little more on the quiet side this night but Damien's voice was BEYOND INCREDIBLE!
This was the BEST I have ever heard him sing. As mentioned in the 4th December post, I finally got to hear/see
CREEP and it was just absolutely amazing. But to actually get to hear it again, was just mind blowing!. Infact, I didn't think it was possible that it could sound better than the night before. Honestly, if you had have seen me, I was absolutely DYING! But this night, with each note getting bigger and bigger, I was grabbing Roxy's hand and literally, had my MOUTH OPEN SO WIDE and just a squeeeeeeeeeeek was coming out!
Roxy, Sis and Dawn were the same. We were clearly GOBSMACKED! Trust me, it's not easy to shut us up and I swear we were hanging on every single second of the song.
And WOW...when Damien did If Tomorrow Never Comes I was just blown away again. What beautiful lyrics and Damien's version is so heartfelt. Sis is a massive fan of the song and she was just totally in awe watching Damien performing it.
I looked over at the next table, and I could see this couple just gazing into each other eyes and then she was crying on his shoulder as Damien neared the end of the song.
That to me is just such a gift to be able to make people feel like that!
As Roxy mentioned, Damien started Wicked Game...and he sang.....
The world was on fire, no one could save me but you...and then he paused for just a a second and this lady in the middle of the room went...
Ohhhhhhhhh..........myyyyyyyyyyyyy......Goooooooooooood!
Everyone clapped and cheered and then Damien continued on singing despite having a big proud smile on his face!
He looked a little like this! ;D ;D ;D
And went straight back into the next note, just as beautiful as the one before it.
The crowd was fantastic. One of the BEST and most interactive crowds I have been in. They were not over the top and rowdy, just really loud with their cheering, and woooohoooing and they really appreciated every single moment of Damien!
Not sure if it got mentioned but Damien did do some of
KISS at the end which as you can imagine, made us tarts
very very happy. He actually did the second verse. WE LOVED IT!
Not sure when it was, but Damien mentioned Santa again so the girls and I all put on our flashing Santa hats. Sis and I had ones that said HO HO HO in flashing lights (Sis are you trying to imply something? hahahaha) and Roxy and Dawn had hats that said Merry Christmas with flashing lights all around it.
So we realllllllllllllllllllllllly stood out!
;D
Actually, I think Roxy had hers on for a song before that too. She was very much getting into the Christmas spirit.
Damien did sing most of Santa Claus is coming to Town but didn't know all of the lyric so people in the audience were calling them out.
The sing alongs were GORGEOUS on this night. The audience sounded really good and we got sing alongs right from the beginning when Damien did Fishermans Blues (did I get the title right? I hope so)
It really was an amazing show. I so want to say it was the BEST ONE EVER but the night before was also so absolutely incredible too!!!!
We got so many great songs between both nights and so many of our favourites too.
The venue itself is gorgeous. So small and cute and funky and both nights we had the very front table of 4. Perfect spot, right up close and personal although somewhat embarrassing when we said things that were perhaps not meant for everyone to hear! hahaha.
Damien looked fantastic on both nights and this night he was wearing his black tight jeans which he looks so great in, and this gorgeous shirt, it was white with a thin stripe of I remember correctly and really dressy black pointy shoes.
There was lots of banter with the crowd, lots of joking around and great stories. Damien never fails to deliver an entertaining night and we could hear other people absolutely RAVING about the show afterwards.
In fact...most of them said they were locals who decided to come along for dinner and show because they thought Damien was good but they came away saying words like SMITTEN, MOST AMAZING VOICE EVER, SO FUNNY, WHAT AN ENTERTAINER, FRICKING GORGEOUS
and so on.
Sis and I were talking to a few ladies after the show and they were even stealing the posters off the wall on the way up the stairs and were holding them and sighing and saying they were in LOVE!
They ALL said they would go again in a heartbeat and would be looking out for other dates to go to.
And it wasn't just the woman either, their partners were all raving on about how amazing he was.
Actually, when Damien left the stage, it was actually a MAN that grabbed him and tried to hug him!
Go figure
It was so wonderful as always to see Shims and Shims BF, they came back to our apartment for a "Penthouse HUT" as Shims called it and we all had a ball. Such good company, it's always a pleasure.
It's a shame you couldn't have been at the table with us but you were right behind which was great
Anyway...I have raved on and on but I could seriously go on all day and all night about how amazing both the nights were.
My time with Roxy, Sis and Dawn was just fantastic. We got up to so much mischief (more on the first night...haha)...and had an absolute blast together.
Thank you to Sis for doing such an incredible thing for Roxy and letting me a part of that. You truly are such a generous and wonderful person and I love ya!
Dawn, you are the sweetest most generous lady and so easy going and you do so much for Damien and for all of us. Love ya hun!
And Roxy, what can I say about you that I haven't before. We always have such a blast together, whether its shopping, or um....drinking excessive amounts of alcohol
..we always have an amazing time and it blows me away how many times we say things at the same time. Love ya lots!!
And to Damien.....you never ever cease to amaze me. Thank you for two AMAZING nights. You not only blow us away with your EXQUISITE VOICE but you make us all laugh and cry and entertain us from the moment you come on till the moment you leave the stage (mind you, we never want it to end).
Thank you for being sooooooooo wonderful and I am sure by now you realise the impact you have had on all of us and the lifelong friendships that have been formed through you and the forum.
You are incredible and we love you!
I'm loving these reports, last night sounds like it was so special. Carla, you could rave on and on all day about, I would never get bored reading about it. D really is a champ, and I'm over the moon to hear that people who just went to the brass monkey for a bit of entertainment came away so starstruck and smitten - that's what it's all about - just fantastic!!!
I would have SO loved to be with you all at such a wonderful venue, listening to this man we adore perform magnificently with wonderful friends 
so I was just hoping for the best that all would go well and we would be there as planned, and thankfully all was wonderful in the end and it was brilliant and better than we had even dared to hope 
I'm okay now * sniff
