Bekah & Sheila,
I've always loved the way he sings on that album too & "Fools get lucky" has always been one of my special favourites. I heard him sing it in concert once years ago down in Bournemouth & he sung it to us,not as a love song,but to 'u…
Thank you for showing us all these wonderful photos. I feel as if I'd been to the show!
Jill.
Congratulations,Bekah! Everyone must be so proud of you,
Jillx.
It's like Barry's quote says:
"I am a musician. My passion for music has obliterated everything in its path for my entire life. Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time. No one person or material t…
You're so right Jill - both the music and the man remain wonderful.
I had a friend over last evening and we watched Barry for four hours...mostly old stuff. We looked at concerts to begin with but then we started to watch UK TV interviews from 1991/92. I must admit I haven't seen them for a long time and I just love…
Alison,
'Bast' wishes? I think 'bEst' wishes would be nicer!! Oops!

Wish they'd keep the same format...it is so confusing. Yes I was a huge Paul McCartney fan, altho loved the other Beatles too!!! Am just going to the 3 concerts in London and no party. Have just moved home and had to draw the line somewhere, money is not a bottomless pit and was and still is a very expensive time for me. Am going to meet so many of my new pals from the site, it will be equally exciting seeing them, as Mr Manilow himself. Don't worry about being hopeless, it took me a heck of a long time to grasp the Barrynet knowledge and am still learning. I am staying at the Ibis Hotel on Saturday and Sunday night, with two pals, but travelling up with some other friends on Thursday and coming home that night. It will be amazing. Went to see Barry in Vegas last year for my 60th birthday and shook his hand. Also went to see his house in Palm Springs...it was a fabulous holiday and one to remember forever.

- Hi Jill, thanx for your wonderful message, OMG, there must be someone else out there who is around my age, ha ha!!!! Did you also see I actually went to see the Beatles whilst I was still in secondary school. What a night, no-one had seen anything like it. There were the bobby-soxers for Sinatra and of course the adoring Elvis fans...however, nothing like the Beatles. I was brought up on Sinatra, my Dad used to sing (not famous, just on an amateur basis, and so did I). Never an Elvis fan tho. Barry has been in my life for over 30 years and I love him perhaps even more now, than I did from commencement. Funny, there was a small TV war between Ben Casey and Dr Kildare, RC always won out in my eyes. My life was turned upside down when Barry came on the scene. My ex-husband rued the day when he introduced me to Barry Manilow, our marriage has since become a thing of the past. Am so very excited about the 02 concerts, especially as they are being held in my hometown of Greenwich. Once again thanx for your very interesting mail. Have put in a friends request, take care, Manilove, Irene UK

Diane said… - It's been fun to read about people's first concerts. The Beatles, Queen and now Cliff Richards. Yes, your mother must have been a saint. ;-)
Wow. The Rolling Stones. That's pretty impressive.
Mick Jagger having a pee through the open window as I was entering the hotel.
Bwahahaha! Too funny.

I think you said it's quite near you isn't it? Is this weather permitting? I can't remember what seats we are sitting in exactly for Barry, (I was in a panic and had to get Katherine to help me) but on Thurs we are in the left stage seats row g and Sat the right side stage seats row f.

- Hi Jill thanks for your reply. i know what you mean about the page I am getting better at it but think I still have a long way to go to work out exactly what I am doing.
Yes I am going to go to both shows and am going to stay with my cousin who lives in Reading in between. She lives in Caversham park village do you know it?
I wonder if you wished Barry here when you went to the O2. If you did well done!!
Hope to hear from you soon
Lou

- Hi Jill, I think I'll be on cloud nine until December! Our tickets are for both side aisle seats on both days so if you have middle row ones you'll have to tell me what he looks like full frontal!!! I've lost the date again for the picnic? Was it the 15th because I'm on coffee duty in the Cathedral and will have to swap with someone.It's easily done so no probs. Where are you sitting? xxxx

- Hi Jill, I'm still on cloud nine just knowing Barry's coming here. Did you get tickets? We got Thursday and Saturday and Katherine, my daughter said she wouldn't mind going too. I'm sure she's a closet fan even though she says she doesn't like him. Maybe she's just been brainwashed. What a Bank Holiday weekend! I'm being really lazy doing nothing. Bliss!!!
