Meeting Burt?

Hi Everyone! I'm pretty sure I'm going to be able to see Burt in a few months in the Washington DC area. Does anyone know if he is generally available to sign autographs? I haven't seen anything on line that says whether he's sort of private or if he likes greeting fans.
Can't wait to see him! It will be my first time. Yea!

Hi - I live in Washington, and I haven't heard about Burt coming here. What's the deal? Do you have concert info, or is he coming out here for something else? Steve

Bonjour bonkersforburt;

Yes I will there on Sunday. I will be seated either in the 5 or 7 row, right of the stage.

Hey, maybe we can meet up before or after the show?

Will you also be @ the New Jersey show on Saturday, June 7, 2008?

Take care mon ami.

Vincent

You all sound like seasoned Burt-goers...any idea about my original question? I have this image of Burt as a really open and friendly guy. Do you know if he is generally available for autographs, etc?

you can count on it. unless he is obligated to go to an event burt will absolutely not leave until he has spoken to every fan waiting to meet him.he is a gracious and kind gentleman who appreciates his fans. and he will remember you tyhe next time!

I am also attending the performances in Princeton NJ and Bethesda MD.

I have my tickets for Bethesda already - first row in front of the singers. My husband and another couple are ten rows back. (There was only one seat left in the front row and my husband doesn't like to sit that close anyway.)

Vincent, I'll be looking for you at both shows! I met you and your wife at the Mohegan Sun last October when Burt performed there. (I'm the one that went to Sydney, Australia last July to see Burt at the Sydney Opera House.)

Bonjour Laura;

Yes I remember you from Mohegan Sun last October!

It was a great joy to meet such a Burt fan as yourself!!! You are light years ahead of me in that area!

Looking forward to meeting you again along with your husband and friends!

Laura, if it was not for you, I would not have gotten that 44 page brochure, when Burt toured 'Down Under' in 2007!!!

Well take care mon ami, and I will see you in June!
