You can find all the bootlegs on the IL DIVO forum and the best thing is you don't have to even register there! Just go there and grab the link in the tour discussion thread.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Il Divo official forum managed by SONYBMG even allow bootlegs there?

Yes! They do. haha They have even a special section with bootlegs of almost every show of theirs. And it's an official forum. It's actually because IL DIVO themselves allow it and encourage it. I'm sure if Céline would be asked she wouldn't mind either.

Barbra Streisand is to charge up to £500 per ticket when she plays the UK this summer.

The cheapest seats for Streisand's concert at London's O2 Arena - formerly the Millennium Dome - will cost £100.

The music legend is performing in the UK for the first time in 13 years.

Her ticket prices far exceed the likes of Madonna and the Rolling Stones.


Top tickets to see the Stones at Twickenham this summer cost £150.

Madonna came under fire last year when tickets for her Confessions tour were priced between £80 and £160.

Streisand's London gig on July 18 will be one of five European dates.

She will also play Castletown House in Dublin on July 14 plus shows in Vienna, Paris and Nice.

Whoa so expansive...  

[celinerific]

Woah. Crazy woman. Celine has a special theatre and doesn't even charge that much.

That's soooo true! There's no other artists in that world who charge that much. It's a shame to notice that Streisand seems only care about $$$ and not about her fans.

She rarely does concerts anymore. I remember reading that for many years she had extreme stage fright, so this is why she would rarely tour. It's good to hear she is starting to sing live again. The ticket  prices are high but I'm sure some people will buy them. She would be a great person to have perform at Caesars in LV after Celine leaves.  

[firebird]

Her prices have always been high on her concert, and she gives a large part of that to charity.

Yes, some I guess

Due to phenomenal demand, Barbra Streisand’s second night at The O2 Arena in London has now sold out. After her first show, on July 18th, sold out in twenty minutes the decision was made to add a second night on July 22nd. This has now also sold out. Tickets for both shows were made available today, Friday 4th May, following the announcement of the tour on Monday 30th April.

The shows at The O2 Arena will be her first in the UK since 1994. The European tour, which her many fans have been eagerly anticipating for years, also visits Austria, France, Ireland and follows her record-breaking US tour last autumn. More tour dates in additional countries will be announced shortly.

Barbra Streisand is the US music industry's #1 best-selling female recording artist. She is second in the all-time charts, ahead of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, exceeded only by Elvis. Streisand remains the only artist to receive an Oscar, Tony, Emmy, Grammy, Golden Globe, Cable Ace, and Peabody Awards, and the American Film Institute's Life Achievement Award.

Martin Erlichman, Streisand’s longtime manager announced the tour, and confirmed that the recent US tour, her first in six years, had broken box office records in a staggering 14 of the 16 venues she played. She already held, and still holds, the record in the remaining 2 venues. Designated proceeds from the tour will support her various philanthropic initiatives and will be distributed through The Streisand Foundation.

The European concert dates are:

21 June - Vienna - Schloss Schonbrun

26 June - Paris - Bercy

10 July - Nice - Nikaia Stadium

14 July - Dublin - Castletown House

18 July - London - The O2 Arena

22 July - London - The O2 Arena

I have great admiration and respect for Barbara Streisand.  She is a wise, witty, and wholesome person, who is truly a living legend. She has dedicated her life to upholding the standards of music and film. She has a great passion, an open heart, and a big mouth!  

"A Mirror Has Two Faces" remains as one of my favorite movies, and her monologue about LOVE is UNFORGETTABLE!    

[Koolan]

When did she say she'll never tour again?

lol -> SCF  
*waits for someone to come and tell the 'but Céline has sold 200 million albums blabla this blablabla that' story*

The Mirror Has Two Faces is one of the worst movies she has made. Go and watch What's Up Doc, thats witty, fun, Barbra great acting and  real humour.

[jacwar58]

I was lucky enough to get the cheaper tickets @ £100 each. Pity i sold my binoculars in a car boot sale coz i think I'll need them I'm so far back!!!!!

[je t'aime]

Wow, that is way too much.

Still cheaper than my tickets for vegas!!

[Elaine]

And I thought Céline's was expensive!  

[kathyc25]

That is a lot...but I`m not really surprised. She dosn`t tour a lot at all, so the prices will be high. Her fans will pay that much too because she dosn`t perform live that much and her fans want to have the chance to see her live.

[Bellamy]

It's because Barbra can ask for that much, cause her fans are old and rich. New singers even as hot as Britney could never ask for that much, cause her fans are not that rich.

that is kinda true lol. but hey, Brit's talent and voice is um, well below average. I don't really like either one but if i had to choose i would see Barbra as she is a legend. only Celine is better.

and man, she is expensive...but celine is not cheap too. when i think that between me and my finace we spent $17,000 this year alone to see her in Vegas...omg, that is like a whole summer on the beach in Cancun!!!!

You proved many Celine fans are not poor.

Well I now consider myself to be old and rich then!!!  

[Clio]

I watched "Don't Rain on My Parade" on Youtube and noticed that it was exactly the same as the song in the album.

What do you reckon?
