Bette was and will always be a Divine Diva ! This concert demonstrated her ever loyal position with her fans. Her voice perfectly was in tact along with her heart and soul which is still fully active while she sings - a true gift to an audience to listen to. The video elements, and theatrics are fun and funny. Thoroughly enjoyable evening.
What an amazing show. Band was great, show girls great too.
The Divine Miss M Continues to be a True Entertainer and a load of laughs! It was an Awesome Show~ She was FANtastic! Her joy of what she does, the grace she shows and the love she gives back to her audience demonstrates whey she's still a Great Entertainer. If you haven't seen the show -GO!!
Overall great concert. Should have started on time . Didn't begin til 830. Say that if that's what you are going to do.
Bette midler always gives it her all and at the Barkley center was no different. She sang all our favorites and was warm and friendly to her audience.
We had a great time! First time at Barclays. People kept getting up during show. Annoying! They should open doors sooner so people can eat and use bathroom before the show
I've seen Bette before and she remains probably the live entertainer out there today!
Bette Midler only gets better as time goes on. Her setlist included some new songs along with her classics. She was in incredible voice and moved me to tears and laughs many times. She is simply extraordinary, a night I will never forget.
Imcomparable Bette!!! great show and like always making fun of everything and making people laugh to their gutt. Love her for ever. Thanks Bette for all the funny things you do to entertain us...
she was definetely the divine Miss M !!!!! she put on an amazing show i loved the whole show and her version of jason waterfall was a show stopper.
The show was true Bette Midler. She looked and sounded great. The show lived up to the hype and expectations. If you have the chance see it don't miss it.
Bette was fantastic. A consummate, professional performer. I would see her every time if I am able. Almost 70 years old, and she flitted across the stage in heals like she was 20 years old. Current pop performers could learn a lot from this icon. While we were waiting for the show to begin, people sitting around us were sharing horror stories of long waits with Madonna, Rihanna and Beyonce. Bette came on 30 minutes late but only because the seats were not full. People have to have more respect for performances and get to their seats on time. And her voice is just as good and strong as when I saw her 30 years ago. She is a true performer.
She was better than ever! She has no problem hitting all those notes Hope I look as good when I am 70!!!
Bette was in great voice and sounded terrific. She made me laugh and she made me cry. She sings every song with great emotion and you hear every word. She also has a great sense of humor and we once again enjoyed her old Sophie Tucker jokes.
Bette was so entertaining, fabulous show. So many LOL moments. Voice still beautiful and strong. Terrific band and "The Girls" we're great too. Enjoyed it so much, returned the next night.
What a show!!!! it was perfect. The Divine Ms M did not disappoint. Her signing humor and style were top notch. Loved the Harletts and the band was FANTASTIC. Two hours just flew by. A perfect evening on the town. Love you Bette!
She is still so beautiful, full of energy and just an amazing performer
Bette sang many of her old hits as well as the new hits from former girl groups. She sounded wonderful and was backed by a great band and the Harlettes. Surpise special guest for encore was Darlene Love. No Bette fan will leave disappointed.
I have had the pleasure of seeing Bette Midler 4 times before. Always a wonderful show! I love so many of the songs that she has made popular and I enjoy singing them myself. I'm so glad she is still performing and strutting her stuff!!!
