Just think, they might play Barry, that would make it all better. Besides it such a wonderful time of year, even if you don't celebrate Christmas, does it ever really last long enough? Helen Holdun

Sharon Read your post several times, it is depressing but also very real. It made me think of people I've lost in my life, who I thought I could never function without and yet time heals and I do, and I am very happy. I think of my failed marriag...

My Opinion Repeated

In light of the latest news from Barry, I've chosen to repeat my blog from Friday. For what it's worth I want Barry to know, if he reads anything here, that for me it's always about him, his health and happiness and his choices. He owes us nothing and its sad he's been put into a position to feel the need to reveal his personal, and private information, to once gain satisfy his 'loyal' followers.

You can all like me or hate me, my friends will remain my friends and the rest, so be it.

I've bee… Continue

O/T Sad news Cincinnati Pops director Erich Kunzel dies at 74

Such a loss to the music world. I had the opportunity to see Mr. Kunzel while living in Ohio.

He appeared in July on A Capital Fourth. Same show Barry did such a fantastic performance on.

Barry Video on mydesert.com\barrymanilow

We just posted another video by Alan Markovitz. It has some great shots of Barry and a beautiful song.

If any of you have put together a tribute to Barry or a video of memorable moments, photos from a show put to music, please send me the URL. We'd like to change the video every week or so. Please remember these can not be videos taken at a show, snippets from a TV show, other people playing or singing his music (at least not yet) or anything Barry and the powers that be would find inappropriat… Continue

Helping Hungry Children by Honoring Barry's Birthday!

The Desert Sun ran a special report Sunday by Nicole Brambilia ‘The Summer of Hunger’. As a parent, as a human being, it’s horrifying to learn 7 in 10 valley children may not have food when school closes in just over a week. With the economy as it is, childhood hunger worsens each day. These children rely on the free and reduced lunch programs served in school, without those meals, they eat little, if at all. As quoted by Nicole Brambila, “nearly a quarter of the valley’s children live in povert… Continue

Helen,
It was a nice article. I read and couldn't help but think when Barry used to say "Is there anything he can't do?".

Hi Helen,
thanks for the friend requst.
Just sitting here having my coffee, trying to get with it and get my day going, I went to see Curtis Stigers last night and I still feel so dazed by the show. He was amazing.
It is just after 8 AM here in the UK, So I guess its after midnight where you are.
Hope you had a good week and have a lovely weekend.
Take Care,
Poppy.

Hello Helen,
I have just read you`re discussion, I had to leave a comment because I was so annoyed. I`m so sorry that you get this kind of reception everytime you post on here.
One thing I will say; You are certainly more diplomatic than I would be. Well done for keeping your composure.

Hi Helen!

In your discussion " I Just Can't Believe it" To what were

you referring to when you wrote: when I've asked his fans here to participate in an arena that is not just fan based, the majority of you have balked, complained and refused to participate.

I am just curious...
