Manilow at Paris Las Vegas - November 28, 2010
All Access Subscription • 1h 20m
For this Manilow TV episode we’ve chosen a Christmas video that I edited and gave to everyone that was a part of the Paris shows as a Christmas present.
As I’ve said before, those Las Vegas years were my favorite years of my performing life.
There was a tremendous feeling of family at the Hilton and The Paris. We were making the Decades albums then and changing the shows as the albums were released.
Then Christmas came along and we changed the shows again!
Lights, costumes and arrangements were totally new.
Many rehearsals and sound checks.
I really thought the band, singers and backstage crews were going to revolt because of all the changes I kept throwing at them.
But nobody did. Everyone dived in and made the Christmas shows great. As if we’d been doing them forever.
And Sacha told me that both the Hilton and Paris crews LOVED working so hard. They loved it better than doing the same show every night for some girl singer and playing gin rummy in the wings during the ballads!
The crowds were fantastic, totally unlike crowds at Vegas shows. I loved every part of those years.
Hope you all enjoy this episode and have a happy and healthy Christmas.
Love,
Barry

Return To Blenheim Palace - July 4, 2004
Hi Everyone,
Well, this one is a surprise. Didn’t know this video even existed.
It’s the “Return To Blenheim” concert that we did in 2004.
It was held on the grounds of Blenheim Palace – same place we performed in 1983.
