 Richard's upcoming "Top Of The World" concert will have a Polynesian theme to it. The concert is scheduled for March 11, 2006.
Will anybody from here be there? I'm thinking of going. I will let you know if or when I buy my tickets. |

 My X lives in San Diego, so it all depends on A. airline tickets, B. show tickets. If my finances will allow, I am going. This will be the first trip to a TOPOTW event, so I am going to work on spending less and saving more. I hope all of you can go, It would be so cool to meet face to face. Jim

 Would absolutely love to be there....timing may be an issue for me, however. We'll see. Learned never to say never - cause ya never know what might happen. It would be great fun if a bunch of Carpenters Online regulars could congregate here. We could have a double celebration, eh? My avatar picture is taken at the Carpenters Center for the Performing Arts. I would dearly love to revisit it, and have friends to meet, in addition to a live performance by Richard Carpenter! Tim

Tim, I love your avatar. What a great picture. I myself have stood in that exact same spot. I visited the Center in 1998 (maybe 1997). I really do need to go to the upcoming TOTW event. It's so close to me - there's almost no excuse for me to not be there. |

Right you are, Rick. You are close, indeed. It would be tremendous if at least ONE of us got there to see Richard, and report back on the show. But, I understand time and expense......I know you would have a wonderful time. Hope you can make it, and who knows, maybe a few of us can join you. Be sure to take your camera if you go........  Tim

Oh, I would love to go! If he continues to make this an annual event, I'm sure I will make it one of these years. My 50th birthday is just a little over 3 years away so who knows.
Look forward to hearing from whoever goes and show us lots of pics. I hope Richard puts more photos up in his photo gallery. I love his cars a lot but I'd like to see more of his performances, etc.

There have been quite a few C's songs which flirted with an island theme. Hey, it's worked well for Jimmy Buffett and Kenny Chesney, so why not?
Neil Sedaka was here in Pittsburgh for a few concerts with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and of course I didn't go, so if you can't make it, we'll understand.

I wonder why Richard chose a Polynesian theme? It sounds like it could be interesting. Hopefully he will feature something to do with Karen. It's events like this that really make me miss Karen. As much as I like Richard - it's Karen that I love. I would really love to be able to see Karen in concert now a days that would be a real treat.
Regardless I am happy to see Richard keeping the torch lit. It would be interesting to see if any of his children eventually do some recording. |
