Thank you so much Shims for your wonderful report. The set list looks amazing. I hope to hear most of those songs at the BM. Alone and Stay are certainly 2 of my favourites so hopefully we will hear them.

Well I think Shims has given such a great report that I don't have a lot to add,everything I would say has been said it was amazing so intimate.We had amazing seats and Damien and Eric had to squeeze past us to get to the stage,so it was very nice as Damien went oast and patted my shoulder Hello he just makes you feel so special. I also have to say My DD came along and she just wanted to here Stay,now my daughter is not a cryer but for some reason this brings tears to her eyes so she was getting a bit dissapointed there was no Stay.The week earlier I had written a little note to Damien at Rooty hill telling him how much this song means to her and could he please fit it in for her,she is an amazing Daughter and has got me through a tough year so I wanted to do something nice for her. Even when Damien said it was a special request from someone at Rooty Hill it still didn't click that he was going to sing it for her.The look on her face was priceless when he said stay,at the end of the song he looked our way and I blew him a kiss . After the show she thanked him and he even went up to her and gave her a kiss he is such a sweetie.I am sure he has so many more fans after this show ,he was so cheeky throughout just feeding off the audience and as we all know the more everyone gives the more he gives in return. I do have some photos but I probably won't get to them today as I am a bit under the weather,so check back in a couple of days. Shims it was lovely to catch up with you and P again I loved your report  |

HAWT HAWT HAWT firstly the red tshirt done it for me as I love red. Damiens voice was amazing tonight hitting all the right notes. Songlist was incredible as you can all see,Im really loving Crazy Love and sorry is a really good song to open the show with. The atmoshere was electric with a very mixed crowd and boy did they love Damien. Special moment was when Damien sang stay for my niece,and at the end pointed to us and said especially for the table over there. We had a random guy come sit next to Kazza and started showing us pictures of his puppies on his phone because he saw Kazza had a notebook on table with puppies on it. Also a lady came over to us and said oh you seem to know Damien quite well and she asked what u2 song did he sing on idol ,I couldnt remember Shims and Kazza knew so my niece went and told her.The lady yelled it out and D sang it for her,so another happy customer. So many people stayed back to talk and have photos with D which was really good,D greeted us with a kiss and how ya doing short chat as Eric was in a rush to get outta ther which is understandable with 3 nights of shows. Well I had a great night happy and sad cause that was my last show but very grateful I had 2 shows in 1 week. Lovely to see Shimms and P again and of cause to watch D with my niece and big sis Kazza who at the moment isnt well at all. Thankyou Damien and Eric for giving my week a happy wonderful and beautiful ending  |

Thankyou for the great reports, ladies! ;D That venue looks amazing, I love the architecture and the ghost stories!  Poor Eric, reduced to an apparition!  It seems it must have been pretty hot indoors too, I noticed pedestal fans in the pics! D sounds like he was steaming the place up.. bahaha, singing I love You Damien! 
Gotta gotta gotta hear the new Alone and *siiigh* Stay. How lovely of D to sing it for Michele's niece. What a sweetie. Sounds like it was a wonderful show..and Shims, if you're saying D is singing better than ever.. OH. MY. GOD!!!  SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Can't wait to hear him soon! Thanks again. It's great to read that D is in such fine form! ;D PS. So Jagger made the man jewellery, not Jarvis? ;D PPS. Get better soon Kazz, I'm looking forward to your shots!  |

OMG Shimmery, You make me wanna cry  Your storytelling was like almost putting me there in that room, with him  and those songs and the love and the banter and then it was like, reality slammed the door in my face  and I wasn't there :(in that moment, and that moment is gone forever and I missed it  . I sound pathetic, I know  but for a moment I really thought I was there  When Damien said "it was scandalous" I heard his voice Oh man, I want those songs , that audience (I feel Perth audiences are a lot more introverted  ) that man  !!!!!!  Did anyone take any video, that might be headed for youtube?  thankyou  |
