Thanks guys - London to Rome for a weekend for a BB concert sounds wonderful.

Where can I book tickets for the Rome concert on-line? Is there a reliable Italian ticket agency?

Ciao.

PS Milan 0-5 Chelsea ?! Crazy.

With due respect but to me mario biondi is not a great singer!
He does not pronounce the words right and is so out of key.
I dont think that Burt (the genius) would like to hear it.
Listen carefully how Burt and Ron are doing it Live on Stage.
Thats great!

kind regards Marcel :D

sorry my friends, but I totally disagree with you on Mario Biondi appearing as special guest, in Burt's 3 days italian tour, next month. Mario Biondi has a peculiar voice. his singing modes recall Isaac Hayes and Barry White. His Jaaz band is a very good one.He is also a pretty good saxophone player. Mario recorded recently - Close to you - But I hope he will sing:The windows of the world .I'm much intrigued by his rendition of this beautyfull song. I think You have been to hard in your judgements on Mr Biondi's vocal qualities.

I'm going to explain it carefully because i don't want to be taken like the "one" who likes to complain:
Mario Biondi has an excellent vocal material with a good projection of the sound.
The problem for me is that the way he sings does'nt fit Burt's music.Most of all the english pronunciation.
This is my simple and personal opinion.bye GABBA
