Wow great reports Trilly and Dawn, I feel like I was there with you both, although I wish I was I'm stunned your up writing a report at this time too Trilly well done to you I wonder what D is up to with the voiceovers, I can't wait to find out.
Thanks for posting and I can't wait to see the pics Dawn

[Smiley]

Cool!! You guys write such good reports!

Glad it all went off well and super thrilled that the families loved it too! Always heartening to get feedback from people who aren't quite as as we are...not that we could ever be accused of bias...


Looking forward to the photos! And about the sideprojects.... I wonder what he's up to? The curiosity will be playing havoc with my mind til we find out...I have never been good at waiting!

Thanks guys!

[Glawz]

Fantabulous reports Dawn and Trilly - I almost felt I was there and wish I had been!
So looking forward to the Vic run, not so long now and it will be here before we know it!
That's interesting what you say about D's voice Trills.... I wonder what he's been up to with the 'voice overs' etc...
Look forward to the photos.
Safe trip home everybody.
Also great to hear that your families and friends loved it... I've said before, 'What's not to love!'

Awesome night by the sounds of things! great reports ladies, and thanks for doing them while I was snoring!! boy you girlies stay up late/early morning!

Love hearing that your fambo's and friends were all mightily impressed with Mr L, I had faith that they would


Was there merchandise?



Glad that you got to hear LEAH Trills,


Isn't GOODNIGHT just the bomb!! it sounds so friggen good with the band! so glad D has left that on the list! ;D

OH sounds very interesting......VOICE OVER??? I wonder what for? maybe that new show The Voice? or maybe the new tele movie about the Miners? or perhaps a kids show? so many possiblities ah! can't wait to find out more!

again, thanks for the reports

[debangel]

Thankyou ladies, for your entertaining reports,

Recordings, voice-overs OOhhh, I am hoping to have Damien in my loungeroom again every week

[nixter]

Wonderful stuff ladies. So glad you and your rellies had a great time. Hope we will find out soon re- new plans. The suspense is killing me.

[dmac]

yes Roxy, there was merchandise. All they had was the 2 novels, the tea towels and Roy.....Diana was also selling her CD. George said all the other stuff had gone....although he seemed to think most folk had the older CDs
Here's the pic of the 2 joke books (oddly enough the Irish one was from Ireland ha ) ohhhh and that tongue was just hanging straight down after D played with it

[cracklingrose]

Brilliant reports ladies thanks for posting...it has been three weeks since I last saw D..reading your fabulous reviews just brought it all back to me..not that I could EVER forget..I am definitely in a permanent D zone
loved your photos Dawn what a handsome man he is

[KrisLovesDamien]

Great stuff Trilly and Dawnie.

Awesome reports! Like you mentioned Trills, I still am amazed to this day that D can keep smashing concert after concert with that voice!! The man is a machine!!!

I just love hearing about all his little hip moves and funny jokes hahaha! ;D

VOICE OVERS!?!?!?
Interesting Can't wait to find out mroe about that.

I'm still desperate to hear Leah too!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, getting pumped for November now

[astrokath]

Thanks for the great reports.
And Krissie is right, the voice overs in particular sound very interesting.

Thanks Trilly & Dawn for your reports-- Trilly mentioned about the sound being better in the back half of the centre more so than the front section and when I had a look at how ticket sales were going last week I thought it a bit strange that the seats at the back were selling so much quicker than the front at this venue --um I suppose a bit of local knowledge here


At least he will have a breather from concerts until Oct 6 I think to rest his voice.

TV voice overs very interesting

Dee Why is virtually a sell out with only a couple of scatted seats left and Castle Hill is selling out quickly as well.

I noticed that ROY has moved up two places on the Australian albums chart from 14 to 12.

[Trilly]

Brian, the best spot in most venues to sit, from a purely aural appreciation perspective, is usually near the sound desk. After all, that's where the audio is controlled from, so that's where the focal point tends to be. Also, this venue was flat in the first section, but tiered in the back section, allowing for those in the back to have great viewing as well. I guess the ticket sellers considered them the best seats. :)That's quite a common set-up, I've found.

Damien and I had a conversation a little while ago about sound quality. I guess he noticed that I sometimes close my eyes when I'm listening intently. Have to say that I'm torn though. I love being up close, watching him watching us, haha, but it is fab to hear him sing from the most advantageous position.

Thanks guys for the lovely comments.

[plugger]

Thankyou so much for the reports Dawn and Trilly! So glad you both had a great time, It does bring it back .......the memories CR!

Btw, I'm glad you explained what the "sticky, stretchy thing" was Dawn! Damien was hilarious playing with it, he seemed to be totally bamboozled and a tad concerned bwahaha! and from where in was sitting I couldn't tell either!
