Wow, it's so lovely reading all these reports - I can feel the excitement level building and building around the country!!!

I so hope Damien sings "She's a Mystery to Me" in Perth, definitely a stand out favourite on the album for me........ I see a request or two to his facebook page coming on over the next week or so!!

I'm looking forward to hearing "In Dreams" live, as it is probably one of my least favs on the album, but everyone raves about it live, so looking forward to hearing that!!

So glad you got your lovesong dedication girls - how sweet (just remember, it's the second row in Perth DAmien!!!)

Thanks to everyone for your fabulous reports, I enjoyed reading each and every one of them! Certainly wish I had been there!!

Also, reading the setlist, it looked like a long show, but I know how the time flies so quickly when you are sitting there enjoying the show, and 90 minutes never seems enough!!

As promised - my pressie for D



Damien read the first two lines out loud and then told the audience that it said something about being "ruggedly handsome with buns of steel"

[Trilly]

Oh Wombleton, that's fantastic!! I bet D and Melly loved it!! ;D
Bahaha about the "buns of steel"

We're certainly leaving him in no doubt about who WE think was the best on that dancin show! ;D

oh and PS. I did think of you when I saw teh huge belt buckle in Melb! Aaaah, memories!

Smiley, I get Damien next Adelaide next Friday

Sounds like he's coming around for a visit!

With a packed house it's bound to be DYNAMITE!!!

Fabulous gift Womby... I'll bet he was thrilled with it.... should go straight to the 'pool room'
Have really enjoyed reading all the comments reports.... the excitement is contagious....just brings it all back from Palms. If it wasn't for this forum there is no way I'd survive until November!

Not that it's really relevant at this late stage but....thought I would pop in and leave a few words for posterity

What a lovely way to spend my xxth birthday evening!

Totally loved seeing D & the band in full Rock Star mode at The Enmore. Great venue!!!

It was so moving (for me at least) to hear Beautiful in that absolutely brilliant arrangement they do of it now (when is that going to be recorded???). Cesar on quena...fark!! emotional overload for morgs.

Then...GOODNIGHT!!! what a beautiful, beautiful song. Was totally blubbering by this stage (the Roy Orbison fan next to me thought I was insane I'm sure...)

And was icing on the cake to hear Hallelujuah... :sigh:...never get sick of that one (I thought during the concert if it was going to be the only gig of D's i'd seen with no Hallelujuah....but no )

Of the Roy material...well...PW is a great way to end the show...(showstopper indeed!) and Handle With Care was fantastic. Loved the BB duet...b-ewtiful song in 2 b-ewtiful voices.

Great to see everyone and hang out at a funky inner city small wine bar - who says I'm too old be to hip

[Roxy]

Womby I soo remember *Teh Belt Buckle* Lucky for D ah that you didn't have your polishing cloth with you!

and great gift too ;D


Glad you had a great 25th Birthday Morgs!! I can just imagine how you reacted to GOODNIGHT! probably the same way as at the Listening party!! and I think I'll do the same IF he plays it for us at Jupiters!!! ......I'm praying he does!!


Thanks everyone for your brilliant reports, have really enjoyed reading them all!! The show sounds AMAZING!! and I'm really looking forward to the SOLD OUT SHOW AT JUPITERS!! yes...the show is now SOLD OUT! Woooooot!


It's so good hearing how many shows are selling out for D and they aren't small venues either!!

So far

Melbourne
Tasmania
Adelaide
Perth
Gold Coast
