Hi Friends,
Act 2 is here — and it does not disappoint.
This is the closing half of a 1997 rehearsal concert Barry performed before hitting the road on the Clicker Tour in support of Summer of '78. The setlist is deep, the performances are sharp, and "We've Got Tonight" — from the then-current album — is a highlight worth watching twice.
Then there's the medley.
So many great album cuts filled Act 1 that Barry had to find a way to fit eight more songs into Act 2 without losing momentum. The solution was a seamless medley running from "The Old Songs" through "This One's For You." What sounds effortless on stage represents an enormous amount of work behind the scenes — weaving that many songs together, keeping the energy alive through each transition, is the art of arranging. And nobody does it better than Barry.
Only a few hundred people were in that room. Now you can be too.
Enjoy,
– Team ManilowTV

We were sure busy back in 2008. We were doing the “Music and Passion” show at the Las Vegas Hilton and filling up the empty Vegas weeks by going on the road and doing it in various cities.
Lots of work, but great, great audiences and a lot of...
