I at first saw Barry Manilow on a TV programme in 1979. The

00

next day I went out and bought all the records of his that I

1

could find. I have been to 115 concerts now. I went to the New

2

York for two weeks because of he was doing 10 shows at Radio

3

City Music Hall. I saw all 10. You don't go to all that way

4

and only go to two or three, do you? Some people say I am too

5

crazy, but it does not seem so excessive, if you will compare

6

me with a football supporter going to see his favourite team

7

every week. I have got more 80 videotapes of Barry and a

8

couple of hundred records. What I dream about is having dinner

9

with him. Of course, there isn't any chance that could never

10

happen. I don't think Barry understands it why thousands of

11

women feel the way they do about him. It hurts to admit it, but

12

he must sometimes to feel like running away from his fans.

13

Life can be boring, but if I will have a concert to look

14

forward to. I am excited. One day he will stop doing concerts,

15

but that is something I dare not think about it too much.
