20061015 Streisand performed last Friday at Verizon Center in DC



Streisand performed last Friday at Verizon Center in DC

October 15th, 2006

Carroll County Times writer Jordan Bartel informs us that “Barbra Streisand is back on stage.”

In spite of her enormous talent – I was busy re-arranging my sock drawer that evening and I just wasn't able to make it; especially since Representative Nancy Pelosi, San Francisco, CA 8th District, has taken over her body. See: “20061010 Streisand goes emo at Madison Square Garden concert.”

To be certain, Representative Pelosi, who fights for the little guy, can afford the tickets since she is worth over $25 million…

I wonder if Ms. Streisand told audience members to “Shut the **** up!” at this concert?

Apparently “The most riveting moment of Barbra Streisand's Madison Square Garden concert was one of the only unscripted ones.”

Update: Libby Copeland, a Washington Post Staff Writer loved her performance. Ms. Copeland's review of Ms. Streisand's performance appears in the Saturday, October 14, 2006 Washington Post on page C01.

Anyway, Mr. Bartel recently wrote:

Concert Watch: Streisand to perform with Il Divo at Verizon Center

Barbra Streisand is back on stage.

The venerable Streisand, along with multi-platinum selling quartet Il Divo, will perform at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Washington, D.C.'s Verizon Center.

Streisand is the music industry's all-time best selling female artist, with 50 gold, 30 platinum and 13 multi-platinum albums. She is second only to Elvis Presley on the all-time music sellers' chart. She is a multiple Grammy winner, and has an Oscar, Tony and Peabody Award to her name.

Il Divo has become the most successful international music act of the past few years, selling more than 12 million albums. Their first two albums, "Il Divo" and "Ancora," achieved 26 top chart positions internationally, including the top debut in the United States.

Tickets range from $100 to $750 and are available through the Verizon Center box office and through Ticketmaster outlets at www.ticketmaster.com.

Verizon Center is at 601 F Street, NW.
