WELCOME TO THE 2017 TOUR REVIEW THREAD!!

Welcome everyone to the 2017 Tour Review Thread! The upcoming year is going to be exciting with concerts scheduled already for 2017!! MB has some USA shows starting off the year in January and more shows through early April so far and I’m sure many more to come around the globe as the year unfolds! Also exciting for 2017 is the February 10^th release of Songs of Cinema and I am betting a few more songs from the CD will make it in the tour setlist! Woo Hoo! This is the best time to be a fan with MB’s concerts and we may have a Michael Bolton Charities event later in the year, we never know. Michael has multiple projects in the works and he is good at keeping us guessing. I appreciate the opportunity to start a new thread once again for 2017 to give us all a place to share the best part of being a fan--- experiencing Michael in person doing what he does best-SING!!!!!!

I am looking forward to another fun year of posts and sharing great times by the best Michael Bolton fans in the world on this forum. I will post events to keep the thread moving along as the concerts come up as I have in the past.

Let the year long concert party begin and I wish concerts for all of you in 2017!! I know many fans are on other social media sites but I do hope we can continue with the exciting tour reviews here in 2017! You all make the thread fun.

Happy Concert Time again in 2017!!

Thanks girls. I lack confidence sometimes in my lack of writing abilities sometimes. I know my ideas & such but writing them down can be difficult for me some times.

Know jumping ahead somewhat but Michael said on Sunday Brunch that RAH was already booked for 2018 and this morning, on The Wright Stuff, he said the 2018 tour would be a full tour of the UK and it would start at the RAH in London and branch out from there. Super, super information except I am dying to know in what month !!! LOL

Here is translation of article:

"The main appearance was on the third day of the Festival in the Centre ofbig rock ballads. The American King of love songs took the audience on ajourney through time.

Surrounded by a dozen musicians it was Michael Bolton in the shortest time to put emotional high points at the audience. The concert wasopened, with a great classic: "Stand by me" by Ben E. King. With other classics such as "I've got a woman" by Ray Charles, he was soon an enthusiastic atmosphere. The energetic singing with double bass, saxophone, piano and five backup singers was supported.

After two Sung verses, Bolton had the crowd already in the bag, and proved his skills as an entertainer. Since the early of 1980s, he has sold over 60million recordings and garnered two Grammy Awards so."

Here are a couple of pics with first one being of Michael and Gabrielle who joined Michael on stage last night to sing "To Make You Fell My Love" and it comes courtesy of Gabrielle. Second is of Michael out to a late dinner in Zermatt and it comes courtesy of Thomas Gottschalk.
