Post by junkstar »

Could anyone give me an idea of what the show will be like? Will he have a vocalist with him? Thanks.

:D Bonjour Junkstar;

Burt will have 3 vocalists with him. Donna, Josie and John. Each one will be show cased doing a solo or two. 1st rate singers!

It seems like this will be your 1st Burt concert. Well, you are in for a wonderful night!

Hopefully we can meet before or after the concert. I will be sitting in the 3rd row right with 7 of my friends. My friend Alvina will be there with her entourage as well!

P.S. Look under ‘Images’ on the forum and you will see my mug shot.
Take care;

Thanks for the speedy reply Vincent. I am extremely excited to see Burt, and yes, it will be my first. If I spot you, I will say hello.

Any idea how large the band will be? Will Burt sing a little? Will we get some of his great instrumental compositions? Should I not ask and just let myself be suprised? How long is a typical Burt show?

You want to be suprised!

Burt's show are about 85 to 90 minutes.

Burt does sing a few solo songs. I won't tell you. But one of them is his favorite!

I am sure you will enjoy the concert! This is about the 15 concert that I have gone to see Burt, since 1986. I believe that was when Burt & Dionne started their touring. I saw both of them at Radio City Music Hall in New York City. It was truly awesome!!!
