The Burt Bacharach Discussion Forum

Indeed, why did he not get the first one??? Please...

Nobody is handsome ENOUGH - unless we wait for a few more years and Burt's handsome son Olliver turn actor?? But I do agree, must be titled 'The Story of my Life' .

Finally after the Oslo concert I found a review - which I translated into English and sent to Burt - hope you like it ! • Concert: Burt Bacharach • Venue: Wrightegaarden, Langesund • Audience: 1000 - What generation I belong to ? I belong to the ’dessert’ (afters) generation, a member of the audienc...

So happy you made it Mato - and that you discovered Burt's music which I am convinced will follow you for the rest of your life, like it has me and others. By the way, did you notice in one of my comments (Antwerp concert) that Ms Bacharach is actually Croatian??? Burt told me -I had suspected her t...

Once more - I'm sorry - I stand corrected, it was in '87. It was in '88 I came to stay in California and turned a huge corner agewise. I wish I had heard about your many times backstage with Burt before, then it might not have taken me 40 years to track him down again, like it did. But I enjoyed eve...

Of course Vincent - sorry if I did not express myself clearly. I'm quite convinced that the concerts you attended were fantastic, nothing else is possible I believe. I'm still somewhat jealoux that I never saw Burt and Dionne together in concert. But on the other hand I have been very fortunate to m...

Hi Vincent I'm afraid the reunion concert you saw in Radio Music City Hall was in '88. I was in New York on a business trip for only 4 days and had to leave the Sunday before the concert next Thursday - It was awful! My best friend told me to call my boss and tell him I had broken a leg or an arm, s...

It is rather interesting and Some Timing! - I brought the CD cover of 'Rare Bacharach' to show Burt, I just love this CD. I deliberately did not bring the CD because I was afraid I might be tempted to give it to him - when in Antwerpen - I did not expect to be able to just go on the net and order an...

Absolutely Amazing - Thank you - fantastic!

Hi Chris - I'm so happy for you that you experienced another wonderful concert. You may see in another spot of this discussion forum that I attended the concert in Antwerp. 'Jane' I have to tell you is the EXTREMELY LUCKY LADY who happens to be married to the man himself, she is Ms Burt Bacharach - ...

Thank you Werner - I was there too in Antwerp.. Saw Burt in concert for the first time, and met up with him again after having searched for a way of renewing the conctact we had in the 60s for 40!!! years. Due to my daughter Cordelia, she got throught to a publist last year when I had a serious birt...

My sister Anne and I Elisabeth - got tickets for the concert at Trani. Got the best seats on flights from Copenhagen via Milan to Bari and train to Trani. Arrived Sunday, stayed at the Scandic Hilton, no expenses spared. This was the time, a possible revisit with Burt, met with him last in London '6...

Lucky me - I got tickets for the concert in Trani, Italy [/color]- going from Scandinavia to Italy for just three days. Fantastic, last saw Burt in
1969 and never saw him in concert before. Saw him with Marlene Dietrich. Can't wait. --

love, Burtelich :P
