I LOVE music!  I almost always have the radio or the stereo on.  I can't stand quiet!  Below, are just some of my most FAVORITE singers...
Topping my list of favorites is
BARRY MANILOW!!
Yes, you read it right, that was no typo!  I've loved Barry's music since the 1970s. Finally, in 1982 I saw my first concert in Milwaukee - it was the same day as the final game of the World Series in which the Milwaukee Brewers were playing the St. Louis Cardinals.  I saw him once again in 1985.  Then 2  years later I met up with the local fan club - and all hell broke loose!!  Since then  I have traveled with them to see shows from coast to coast.   Los Angeles to NewYork City, Minneapolis to Texas (and every town in between!!) 

Speaking of concerts, I have one that was particularily my favorite - October 24, 1992 in Las Vegas.  That night Barry picked me out of the audience to sing a duet with him to the tune of  "Can't Smile Without You"...  definitely a moment I'll never forget! 
This is a picture of me with country singer/songwriter, Phil Vassar.  I just love Phil and his music.  My friend Ancka and I managed to get meet and greet passes when Phil was in the area on July 20, 2002.  It all happened so fast I didn't know what to say to him.  But I do remember getting a great big hug!
I was lucky enough to get a second chance to meet Phil in January 2003 when he performed at Country Music Night with the Admirals.  Ancka and I got to meet him before the show.  We were then allowed to stand off to the side of the stage for him performance.  It was a once in a life time opportunity and I had a GREAT time!
Another favorite COUNTRY singer is Doug Stone.  My friend Ancka and I love this guy!  We've seen him at least a dozen times, if not more!  The most recent time was August 26, 1999.  We also got the opportunity to go backstage and meet him after his performance.  Can you tell I was "smitten"? 
Another one of my favorite singers is Kyle Vincent. It all started when Kyle was the opening act for one of Barry's summer tours.  This picture was taken a few summers back when Kyle was in the Milwaukee area.   If you haven't heard him, you should check him out!  If you stop by his website (www.kylevincent.com) you can even hear some audio clips from his CDs.  Do yourself a favor and CHECK HIM OUT!
