*Sorry*, I've been *sooo* busy, I didn't get a chance to post this earlier.

It's from member Keiko in Japan. ;)  Just so y'all know, there's always a
*possibility*, so "don't give up your dreams" (as Barry says)......;=)

Subject: Re: I DANCED WITH BARRY

This is what happened on my birthday.

On August 9, I sat at the front row of Rock Bottoms Bar. Barry started to
sing "It's Not For Me To Say" and I noticed he was staring at me and walking
toward to me. The one thing I thought at that time was "Oh, I can't dance!"
But he stopped in front of me and kept singing.  But when I caught a glimpse
of his smile, he went another way and picked  another girl.  I was relieved
and disappointed too.

Then "Signed, Sealed and Delivered" segment came, he started to shake hands
and at my turn,  I got shake hands and was so glad but I thought it's just a
shake hands, so I tried to leave my hand.  Suddenly he pulled my hand and
started to dance. I was a little upset but I thought I had to dance,
so I danced with Barry.

When I told this to my friend, she said "Keiko, Barry  teased you. He
sometime did the same thing to his familiar faces".  It was really fan
moment and the best birthday present for me!!

Barry looked fine all the time but I noticed he looked tired when he was not
in the lights. I really hope his surgery goes well and get a quick recovery.
