Wow,I can't believe he is almost 68! There were a few snoozers, but overall, he puts on a great show. At first, Ryan and I thought he was lip syncing because it sounded too perfect...but after a while we realized he was actually singing and he was that good. Some of the highlights:
-A couple of announcers from a local tv (or radio?) station came on stage to choose a raffle winner to go to Vegas and the guy announcer kept saying "MANILOOOW"...just randomly...I think Ryan and I will use this to spice up conversations in the future:
Me: So, how was your weekend?
You: Well, we went to this adorable little B&B and then.....
Me: MANILOOOOW
You: Um,what?
-The overwhelming majority of people in the audience were women in their twilight of their lives, not a huge surprise, but amazingly, these women were like teenage Bieber fans with their "Fanilow" signs and screams
-"I am still a sex god"-Barry Manilow
-The onstage jacket change. It was important enough to switch from a white jacket to a crushed velvet purple jacket that he couldn't either a) wait to go off stage or b)just keep the same jacket the whole time.
