The Burt Bacharach Discussion Forum

Thanks so much Vincent. That was very sweet of you to get the info for me. Can't decide to go on opening night.....or closing night. I'll let you know so maybe we can meet up in line there. Think I'll take turns waiting in line with my husband...and play the nearby slots :D Anyone needing a hotel in...

:cry: :cry: OK...now I am bummed out.......went to ticketmaster.com......to buy the Burt Bacharach Tickets........and they have some Comedy Show tickets on sale the same nights that Burt was supposed to be at The Cabaret Theatre. Plus the Mohegan Sun website doesn't show the event as well. Maybe.......

HI, Just thought I'd let some of you know that Burt will be at The Mohegan Sun Casino Oct 25-28th in The Caberet Theatre. The Caberat Theatre is a nice little setup.....a 180 degree stage......anywhere you sit is a wonderful view. I've seen Burt perform there many times....and always got upstage to ...

I think it's kinda cool...that Burt has had a lot of TV exposure this year....whether it be The Apprentice....American Idol...even a GEICO ad...I'm loving it

I saw it to...during "House" on FOX.....meant to post about it...wasn't sure if it was old or new

I agree, Vincent...Josie Jame's rendition of "Anyone Who Ever Had A Heart" at Mohegan Sun was marvelous. She started off quiet....and ended up so strong....brought down the house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, Vincent....the show on Thursday nite was suburb (as usual). There was a keyboard malfunction...at the beginning of "Go Ask Shakespeare"..that Burt made a real joke out of....blaming it all on way too much technology these days, etc. And..at the end of the concert..I ran down to the s...

I wonder if the Grammy Awards have a "Lifetime Achievment Award"...like the Oscars have every year.
If so....Burt should definetly be honored one.

Sorry guys, the BB/Dionnne Warwick videos from Season 5 of American Idol..were pulled from the You Tube website...due to copyright rules for American Idol....this i found out...when i tried to see it again from the folder i had saved them in

Wow...thanks for putting the 8 minute segment of Burt and Dionne Warwick on American Idol....it was awesome

Lol, Myron...don't feel like you are the only one that has been a fan of Burt's since the 60's :D I was in my teens ....circa late 60's ..early 70's....still going to see all the rock bands in Portchester, NY (Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Poco, Cream, Rod Stewart, etc) .....but i still was kind...

Welcome, Myron
Take a look at the postings on the topic of American idol

oh..i forgot..Miss Yvonne.......you will be able to rent the DVD's of this season's American Idol soon...........enjoy

I agree with you, Ron Hertel...I was thinking the same thing....that is....most of those kids on American Idol probably had no idea who Burt was...........altho' they all were probably familiar with his songs. And what wonderful exposure for Burt's legacy (no that he needs any) that 42 million other...

Burt and Dionne...along with theAmerican Idol contests...singing a medley of his hits was totally awesome
Gee..when did Burt start wearing glasses???????
