Barry Manilow!!!!

I went with my Mum to see the legendary Barry Manilow in concert tonight. When we first arrived we were greeted by torrential rain that looked like it was setting in for the night, which didn't bode well for an outdoor event... However, miraculously, it cleared and the show went ahead albeit three quarters of an hour later than advertised.

I'm pleased to report that Barry still has 'it' and put on a brilliant show. When we were waiting for the rain to stop beforehand I remarked to Mum that he should start the show with We Made It Through The Rain and he duly obliged. He did all the big songs and the crowd loved it and all of us danced and waved our glow sticks throughout.

Here he is pictured dancing on top of his piano - not bad for a 70 year old! More here, if of interest.

And here's a little audio/visual gem for you.


PS - Thanks for putting yesterday's swan and cygnet in the Spotlight :)
