Yahoo! News [Source: The Desert Sun], 22 December 2023 I went to the Barry Manilow Christmas Concert Sunday, Dec. 17 at the McCallum Theater. It was nothing short of fantastic on every level. The beautiful set, full orchestra, great backup singers and then the amazing Barry Manilow himself. He moved and sang like a man in his 50s. The show was like a Las Vegas review with a Christmas theme. So much energy, gorgeous music, lights and nonstop singing. Barry is such a classic showman. Of course, he gives the money from these concerts to charities here in the valley. How generous is that gesture. Honestly, it was one of the best concerts of my life. The audience was on their feet for the last 30 minutes of the show. Never have I witnessed such adoration for a performer in my life as I did Sunday. Barry’s charming personality and good spirit were so welcoming to everyone in the theater. How lucky we are to have Barry as a permanent resident here in our desert community. Honestly, he should be an ambassador for our country. He truly brought so much joy and goodwill to the world last night. Thank you, Barry, for all you do for our community. You truly are one of our desert treasures.
