My husband and I will be there... Beyond excited as we've never seen her live!
I am in town with my mother tomorrow. And she does like Babs, hmm... if there's a StubHub fire sale, we may have to dip in.
Stub hub does indeed have lots of tix available at pretty reasonable prices - way down from what they were 2 weeks ago...I'm very, very tempted to see her again..... :)

Saw her last year in Brooklyn, is it going to be the same show?

It says "Direct from London" on the sign, so I really hope it is the same setlist. I've never seen Barbra and I'm losing my cool waiting for the show.
I found seats for Chicago for $50 including fees on SeatGeek.

Any pictures or anything? Loved seeing her in Brooklyn but don’t need to sit through the same show twice.

She always puts on a great show and never skimps on her vocals. She gives everything she has, which at her age is very impressive. She's adapted to the changes in her voice, but that lady knows how to place a song to get the most out of it. One of a kind.
Seems very strange that MSG said that the concert would only be 90 minutes long. When I saw her perform on the last tour, it was two acts and had an intermission. I agree that StubHub has a good deal on tickets!
I'll be there tomorrow, very excited! This is my fourth time seeing Barbra and she never disappoints. ChgoTheatreGuy, where are you seeing 90 minutes? I haven't seen that advertised anywhere.
When I first realized that my trip to New York to see some Broadway shows coincided with Barbra's concert at medicine Square Garden I looked into tickets. At that time the only available seats where the nose bleed section for an excessive cost so I said forget it. Years ago I thought I would never see her in my lifetime. It's starting in 1994 I saw her many times.
Luckily I checked back and they were all kinds of tickets. I got a floor seat for less than they wanted for those highest tiers. I'm not sure why they decide to release so many tickets. And all the scalpers who are trying to resell theirs for a whole lot more or finding themselves screwed because the Garden has tickets for sale at regular price right next to the seats.
Since I live on the West Coast this will be my first time seeing her in New York. I did see her in Boston some years back. Excited for tomorrow.
Now if I could only decide on something to see during the day tomorrow.
I’m so jealous of all attending tomorrow. If I hadn’t sunk so much money into my upcoming NYC Sept. 27 - Oct. 5 trip, I’d be tempted to hop on s plane early tomorrow morning and buy a ticket to see her. Sadly, finances don’t allow that. Hopefully they’ll record it.

Well, I live in New York but am not recovered enough from my health debacle to face the Long Island Railroad or MSG. I hope others enjoy it, though.

It was a fabulous night. I spotted the Clintons, Whoopi, Billy Crystal, Mariah, and Rosie.
According to Ben Platt’s Instagram, he and Kathryn Gallagher were also in attendance. Meanwhile, tonight I wrecked my diet with a trip to Chili’s and dessert after via Sonic drive thru. Plus i’ve binged 8 episodes of the new season of Wentworth plus watched The Favourite again on HBO. YAY ME???
She was more relaxed and fun than I’ve ever seen her. But we just have to adjust to her now scratchy mid-range. Thank god for the high notes.
