Guest EXPAT Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I'm VERY EXCITED. I just snagged a ticket for Barbra Streisand in Las Vegas on November 2, 2012. She's coming to the Hollywood Bowl as well, but I hate that venue. I saw her in 2008 at Staples Center in Los Angeles and I never thought I would be able to see her again. So I'm thrilled that I snagged a floor seat in about the 12th row for this Las Vegas venue. It certainly wasn't a cheap ticket. But a night listening to Barbra is worth it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoYsnPmZGAI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lurkerspeaks Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 I was just looking at tickets as well. She will be in Vegas, Philly, NYC, LA, San Jose, and a few other cities. Tickets range from $75 or so for the nose bleed seats, to over $800 for the best seats, depending on location. If money was no object, I would be right there, front and center. She has been a HUGE idol of mine ever since I was a young gay boy seeing Funny Girl for the first time. But, alas, money IS an object, so I won't be able to attend.. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that LA appearance a special concert? I believe the last time Streisand toured was 2006, not 2008. Pretty sure I am correct, because knew it was the last time I could afford to see her in person.

Guest EXPAT Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Yes, it was 2006, not 2008. I thought that was wrong when I typed it in but then I thought it couldn't have been 6 years since I saw her but I guess it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Buddy2 Posted September 20, 2012 Members Share Posted September 20, 2012 I saw Streisand in Philly, the first stop on the tour in 2006. She was staying at the Four Seasons for a week just two blocks from my house. A friend was staying at the Four Seasons as well. So everytime I stop in, I knew there was a chance I might see her. I did see Streisand in her two Broadway shows, both during the Boston tryouts before New York. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ace Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Being a Brooklyn boy, I'll be flying from Vegas to see here open the tour...I'm also interested in possibly seeing her at The Hollywood Bowl, just because I like the place so much...(HATE the MGM). One of my forst clients taught me to "embrace the legends"...I guess they don't get much bigger... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members TownsendPLocke Posted September 21, 2012 Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 One of my fondest memories is seeing Bab's at the MGM on NYE years ago, An exec friend comped my(third row on a center aisle) seat which would have been totally out of my budget, That was a legendary concert.
