Admin when I use Firefox to open the RSS or ATOM feed it looks like I am subscribing to a BLOG? When I open it through Internet Explorer it opens up a program like I am editing photos or something? Please explain these features?

You don't have to post this on the blog, I just wanted to know the difference and which I should use?

Moderator - thanks Cleomio we are looking into this

Hi Barry ,
I'M from Poland.I met about 17 years ago on your concert i Mannhaim and Berlin(backstage)also at the studio in Miami.These were greatest moments in my life,the great time..Time is passing,things are changing.Now I'm 40,have family ,problems and joys and not much time to listen to the music of the Bee Gees or any other.Someone may say I'm not the fan anymore.But it's still here ,in my heart...I've found this page and what's here-Barry!
I'll be visiting this blog to hear from you...
Also glad to know you had a good time-have a great time always Barry!!
Thank you for your music ,thank you for all these great days in my life..
Love always-Agata

24. Posted on Monday, May 7 at 11:07 PM by Peachteach

Alright, Barry, we've got Idol ready to tape and watch! We need more details on your thoughts about the Final Four. How did it go? What were your thoughts on the experience? Maybe you need to start a reality show that judges beginning rock bands!

What are you and the family doing on your time off from the taping? Did you and Simon know each other before this? We're hungry for information on you!

P.S.--Heard a rumor you were re-building the Hendersonville house. Anything to it? So sorry to hear about your loss.

We love you!

25. Posted on Monday, May 7 at 11:23 PM by Sharon Steeves

Barry this is wonderful! Like everyone else, I am a huge fan of all your (and your brothers') work. Nothing like a BeeGee tune at work to lift my spirits on a very taxing day and we love you for how your music makes us all feel. Love the snippets of news we sometimes get on how you and your family are doing and wish all of you nothing but great happiness and great health and I look forward to watching "Idol" this week. Say hi to Linda and the family from myself and my hubby Dave from way up here in Milton, Ontario, Canada.xxxxxTake care and talk to you soon!

26. Posted on Monday, May 7 at 11:23 PM by Mariah

I am not sure that my comment went on.
Then I'm posting another. I just want to say thank you to Barry and all for this blog. My name is Mariah and I'm a Brazilian fan!

34. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 02:26 AM by bonnie

Hey Barry, this is great!

Thanks for all you're doing here. I'm not much of a blogger, but I'm a quick learner. Here's a question, I was going through some old Bee Gee photos and I noticed a photo with Andy wearing a black cowboy hat that looked just like the one you wore to the park dedication. Was that his at one time? You both look amazing in them.

Best wishes for a great show tomorrow. All of us will proudly watch with pride tomorrow! :)

37. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 04:26 AM by Pauleyswife

Can't wait to see you on American Idol. Don't live that far away from LA but didn't think you'd want a fan-atic with a major case of Gibbitis stalking you while you were in town. Hope the final four do you proud! "A day without Gibb music is like a day without sunshine!"

Be safe, have fun and know we can't wait to chat when you get back to Miami.

38. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 06:01 AM by Ann (Kiwi)

All the best with IDOL Barry. Have fun and a safe journey home when it's over. Hope we see it here down under in New Zealand.

51. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 12:56 PM by Sandy

Dear Barry I am looking forward to seeing you on Idol tonight and i dream of one day meeting you. When I had leukemia you and your brother's music sooth my pain many nights. When I went into a coma, my Dr put head phones on me and your music danced through my heard for three days until I finally came to to "Childhood Days". I have always loved your music and I truely believe it saved my life!
Maybe one day I'll be able to thank you in person! Mean time I know you will shine tonight!!

52. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 01:06 PM by Debbie Mack

Barry,
I am so happy that you are going to be on American Idol. No one can compare to the songs of the Bee Gees. I wish you had a little hint of what songs to expect tonight. I only wish Chris was still there because of his high falsetto voice. Best of luck!! Have fun.
Debbie

53. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 02:33 PM by GinGee

Hi Barry and crew,

I'm from Holland and i am so sorry that we can not see Am. Idol here. I'm trying to find everything on the websites and your homepage to follow. I wish you and family good luck in LA and have lots of fun. But i think you have no problem with that.

Hi Barry. First of all, thank you for all the years of you wonderful music. I can't go a day without listening to it. Thank you! I know that all of your fans are anxiously and eagerly awaiting for your appearance on American Idol. Sounds like you are having fun and enjoying your time spent with the contestants. Your fans are with you and supporting you. Again, it will be good to see you perform.

Love, Mindy

60. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 06:20 PM by isg

Barry--
I always thought that Mo especially would have had a blast with Idol if ever he had the chance, and I'm so grateful that your appearance now gives him that opportunity.
I believe that you carry his spirit with you every hour of every day--he is part of you and the man you are reflects his being in your life.
As I watch with great pride and love tonight and tomorrow night, I will be seeing you both--together again.

61. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 06:47 PM by PrincessNita

Hey Barry!!!
Im still very excited for you, although i still have to wait til saturday to see it over the pond here.
I am keeoing all my fingers and toes crossed (which makes walking fun!) that you are such a HUGE hit on American Idol, that Mr Cowell asks you to do the same on good old X Factor this year in the UK!!!!!

62. Posted on Tuesday, May 8 at 06:50 PM by Linda

Hi Barry,
Thank you and all involved for doing such a fantastic job with the chatroom, blog, etc.; keeping the lines of communication open. It's so great being able to talk with you!!

Barry,
From my first album in 1978 (I stole it from my sister) to watching you and your brothers at your last concert, my wife and I have always loved your music. We pray that the Lord would bless your many more years on this earth with health, a great family and more of the magical music you have made that has touched all of our lives with memories of a happy past.
Even our four kids sing your songs! I'm sure many future generations will be singing!
The Lord be with you always...Hank and Aixa

71. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 02:01 AM by anlar

Barry,this is the first time I have ever watched Idol,it took you being there!!! WOW!!! Can't wait till tomorrow,cut it loose!!

72. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 02:13 AM by Brenda

I agree with what you said tonight about Jordan. I think they all are talented but she did the best tonight. I admit I am prejudiced because she sang mine and the hubbys favorite song To Love Somebody.
Waiting on tomorrow night.
Brenda

73. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 02:29 AM by Beth N.

I was thrilled to see someone do Love You Inside Out, which has always been a favorite of mine. It was also nice to hear Woman in Love, and This is Where I Came in, which were all surprises to me. Very nice to hear 'different' ones for a change instead of them all being the same ones that people would expect. I like surprises.

74. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 03:43 AM by Phyllis

Love this. Love U! Good luck with AI and BMI!
Take care!

75. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 06:21 AM by Pauleyswife

You looked great Barry. It's so good to see you after a long dry spell! As usual, though, the final four were not as good as the original songs. There's nothing like the real thing, Barry! I've been voting for Melinda Doolittle since the beginning of this Idol season but feel Jordin Sparks is catching up. I'm sorry, but Blake just got carried away with his beat box on your songs. I felt he could have sang them better without all the extras. LaKisha was OK but her choice of songs weren't quite as good as the others she has sung in the past.

But, above all, I am so happy to see you for more than a few minutes. I hope you continue to come back to your fans. We've missed you!

76. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 08:53 AM by Brenda from Mich

Hi Barry!!!
This is such a great thing for you to do!
I've been a fan for over 30 yrs!! I met you and your brothers at your Love & Hope Festival in 1990, and it was a dream come true! You were so kind and generous w/your time & I can't Thank You enough for that!!! I will always love and support you and your music!! Love ya!!

77. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 11:43 AM by bgdancer

78. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 02:00 PM by Phyllis

Boy were the judges tough on the 4 remaining or what. But Jordin seems to have outshined all. I think you hit it Barry, when you said she will be the next female vocalist.
Thank you again for allowing us to "converse" with you here on your site.
Take care. Good luck at BMI next week as well!

Can't wait to see you tonight. I've loved you guys since I was, well, I'll be 50 soon so you can do the math. Best of luck tonight,(not that you'll need it.), and I think Jordin has done the best job for you. Love and peace forever.

81. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 08:58 PM by Heidi

Barry, you looked fantastic last night. I will be recording both nights onto my computer so I can watch when ever I want to.
Hope to see you later this year in Miami.

82. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 10:45 PM by Debbie

Hi Barry, American Idol proves no one can sing like the Bee Gees! You are an American Classic.
Thanks for your music!
Debbie

83. Posted on Wednesday, May 9 at 11:29 PM by Gloria Lynn

Looking forward to hearing you sing tonight on American Idol, Barry - I enjoyed hearing the advice you gave to the contestants last night - might have been better if they'd listened a little more.

Thanks for the blog!

BTW, exactly where is "Marley Purt Drive"? I've been around southern California alot - know where the Pasedena sign is as I have alot of friends in Burbank & Glendale. LOL.

See ya online soon.

Hey Barry,
I'm 50 years young and I have enjoyed your music for years.....obviously. But my all time favorite song has alway been "to love somebody"
I can't tell you how happy I was to hear Jordan sing it yesterday, and how wonderful it was to hear you sing it today...Great Job. Thank You. B.

85. Posted on Thursday, May 10 at 03:29 AM by Sandy

Dear Barry..Such a long wait for just one song. But it was will worth the wait. You looked and sounded fantastic!! Please ,please, please do some more concerts!! I have got to see at leat ONE before I die. LOL

86. Posted on Thursday, May 10 at 05:37 AM by steve

Barry, all i can say is i am a 34 year old and i have no other favorite exept for perhaps willie nelson. My mom turned me on to you when i was about 7 years old, and i can honestly say i love you and all of your brothers. I recorded one night only and i have to say i have had some pretty sobering experiences in my life also but when i feel blue i put that in and it just seems alright. thank you and all the love.

87. Posted on Thursday, May 10 at 02:29 PM by Cathy Schultz

Barry, I thought you were marvelous on American Idol. Although they didn't always take it, your advice to the contestants was very good and your performance of "To Love Somebody" was beautiful - you haven't lost it in my opinion, you aren't getting older, you are definitely getting BETTER!! P.S. I loved the see-through shirt!! LOVE YA, CATHY

88. Posted on Thursday, May 10 at 03:11 PM by JoAnn M

Loved the past two nights. It's a pleasure seeing you again on TV. Maybe some day we will meet in person. A great big "THANK YOU" to everyone who works on barrygibb.com website to make it a success. Glad to hear you are rebuilding your home again in Tennessee. My love to you and your family.

91. Posted on Thursday, May 10 at 07:21 PM by Christine

Barry,

I enjoyed AM Idol very much. It was VERY interesting to see the contestants interpretaions of your music. In particular TIWICI. Interesting to hear Paula say she didn't know the song. Hmmmm must not be very familiar with BG music. A shame. I would have LOVED to hear Wedding Song from the same album. I am looking forward to hearing new great things from you. You sounded great and was very happy to see you in person. My videos are getting stretched from the continued use.

Curious, is ONE NIGHT ONLY the only dvd the BeeGees have released? Any possibility of going back & doing more like the ones of Johnny Cash? That would be great for someone like me who doesn't get out much. Good luck on all future endeavors & seriously consider more DVD's, from the past. Thanx for all the music to date. There is no comparison. I'm new at this, sorry.

Dearest Barry,

Thank you so much for cheering me up with this "blog spot".
You will make my life so much happier that I can now read in my own time nearly everything (lol) that you are up to, and to read the comments from my friends in the chatroom; your fans.
It will be a few more months till I can return to chat, so again, thank you Barry, Darin, Ashley and all at Admin for "everything".
Sometime in the future I dearly hope American Idol will be shown on Australian TV. I have heard many reports on how great, kind and helpful you were, so can't wait to see you in action.... SOON!!
All my love to everyone.

I don't think anyone loves their fans more than Barry and Oprah. How nice to have this site and the chat room. I hope I get to talk to him. He is still great in my book! I dream about him from time to time and boy do I enjoy that! But, his wife is still beautiful and he picked a good one! I envy her!
I wish you would come to Rockford, Illinois before I move.

Hi Barry,

Congratulations on a Fantastic American Idol!!!! I was singing right along with you on "To Love Somebody." It was a very emotional performance for me to watch. The impact you have made in these young singers lives will stay with them forever. I,ve been a Canadian fan since 1967 and never looked back! As a City bus driver I find myself belting out a few Bee Gees songs now and then.
I deal alot with Handicapped people and its a great way to brighten up their day. Thank you to everyone involved in getting this Blog up and running. Its AWESOME!!!!

Barry,
Thanks for all the great songs and recordings!! I was wondering will there be any U.S. concert dates in the future? Any chances of a duet with Olivia Newton_john?

Hello Barry,

I watched You on American Idol and I thought You were so Dear with the Lady contestants! You are such a Sweetheart and I hope to someday come to Miami and tell You hello in person and maybe get a hug from You! Looking forward to Your Country CD. I think You will be a wonderful Country Western Artist.

101. Posted on Monday, May 14 at 02:03 AM by Tonia D

Great to see you singing once again on television; wish it could be more frequent. Watching you sing "To Love Somebody" once again brought back so many good memories.
I saw you once in 1972 at Morehead State University; the only time I was to be at a live performance. So it would be great to see you perform again; or at least frequently on television.
God Bless
Tonia

BARRY....I watched American Idol especially to see you again. Usually I just watch the last show when they pick the winner, but this time I watched anxiously every week until you were on it. It was worth the wait (and now I'm hooked on AI). You were fantastic (as usual) and sang great and looked great and I've been a fan of you and your brothers for years. All those songs plus all the ones we love and cherish...you are so talented. It was great to see and hear you on TV again. Don't wait so long. Also, please come to Tulsa. This 54 year old woman will be there! You were so supportive to the contestants too. I don't think Melinda should have changed anything you wrote. (That's sacreligious!!! ha) We all still love you.

BEE GEES WILL ALWAYS ROCK FOREVER

Barry and family,
Glad you returned home safely. Congrats to you Barry on the award. Long over due I think for you and your bothers in getting recognized. You all have a true raw talent and one thing I can say about the Bee Gees...The Bee Gees did not need a gimmick to sell records like big hair nor make up like Kiss. Congrats again.
SueBee (hugs to you and the family)

113. Posted on Saturday, May 26 at 06:18 PM by Steph

Dear Barry,

Just wanted to say MANY THANKS, again, for sharing all the music of, and written by "The Brothers Gibb" (Barry!, Robin, Mo and Andy), through Barry Gibb Radio.
Could not survive without it, literally!

Guilty Pleasures Demos are beautiful. So much so that "Letting Go" has just reduced me to tears.
It would be great if you could release them all on CD! A bonus to the already beautiful Guilty Pleasures CD with Barbra, or maybe a 'stand alone' release?. Praying hard!.

Thank you for keeping my heart beating.

Love you all,

Steph x x x

Barry,
Missed your chat today, but saw the transcript. You said you want to do another world tour. Please do! You have so many fans who still love you and miss you. We want you back! You were awesome on Idol and you still have so much to share with the world. Save a tour date for Atlanta or Jacksonville...I'll be there!

hello

118. Posted on Wednesday, June 20 at 11:01 PM by Phyllis

I have always agreed with you, Barry, when u said that you don't want to do Robin's songs. I wish Robin would do the same with your songs! I had listened to his concert in Russia via YouTube and he should NOT sing your songs.
He does his songs well but I was disappointed with Night Fever and You Should Be Dancing.
Let's face it, the BeeGees were magical. YOUR songs are magical!

I really hope u can get the original band together. If that can be done, then who says "no one can get too much heaven, no more"! Awesome!
thank you for reading this....and listening to all of us. We love you!

119. Posted on Friday, June 22 at 06:34 PM by CleoMio

Barry this has been great fun reading all the comments from fans the world over. How wonderful that you and your brothers music continues to touch so many people.

I think the only lasting legacy we leave on this earth is if we are remembered long after we're gone. I think you , Maurice and Robin have ensured your place in history and in the hearts of generations to come.

120. Posted on Thursday, June 28 at 08:06 PM by Pamela Winter

Barry,
I missed your chat too, and that's something that usually just doesn't happen! LOL I did read a transcript though, and where you were talking about singing songs that Robin normally takes lead on that you don't think you would sound good-- well, I've never heard you take lead on songs Robin normally does, but I've heard more than I ever care to hear again of Robin taking lead vocals on songs that you take the lead on! For instance, in the Robin Gibb Live DVD-- he sang Words,and To Love Somebody-- I don't know what anyone else thought, but it sounded awful to my ears! No offense intended to Robin, he's got a "pied piper" voice-- I'd follow it anywhere, normally, but his voice is just wrong for those songs, and your's is perfect for it.. He also did a performance for PBS's Pop Goes The Fourth a few years ago for Independence Day, and although I was pleased to see him on the show,(heck, to see either of you on any show is exciting and must see tv in my book!) the performance was, lets just say..dissappointing.. I don't know if I was more dissappointed with the way he sounded, or that (in my thoughts) his ego were such that he thought he could actually pull it off! I came away from the show with the thoughts that Yes, it was great to see him perform, but on the other hand, the songs he chose to perform were the wrong ones....Your missing vocals were like trying to ignore an elephant in the room...you just can't! LOL
I certainly don't blame you if you choose not to post my comments to the blog, I hate to sound so negative about Robin, but when I read the transcript, and wasn't at the chat to respond at the time, I felt like I had to say it..Robin can still be taught a LOT by his big brother!
I thought about you the other day-- I was in an electronics store called Frye's and they sell cd's and dvd's and I usually go and look for The Bee Gees and straighten them up and put the cd's in the very front when I can, and same with the dvd's, and decided to look through their selection of british comedy series on dvd and ran saw seasons 1 and 2 of Little Britain-- I didn't know they'd released it to dvd yet! LOL But seeing it made me think of you because I remembered once in a chat you mentioned that you watched that one, and I'd seen it many times myself and thought it was funny. Strange, but still funny! LOL
About the world tour you mentioned in this last chat-- YES!!! PLEASE!!!! I can't put into words how much I'd love to see you perform in person! I had 2 prior chances--The first was the Spirits tour and y'all came to Ft. Worth, TX-- my parents wouldn't let me go-- said 14 was too young for going to concerts, especially ones outside Dallas, and the other time was ONO in Vegas-- I'd just had my daughter and couldn't travel yet- cursed episiotomy! There's not enough drugs in the world for that kind of pain! LOL (I'm sure Linda knows what I mean...) But anyway, I 've been hoping and hoping that I'd get another chance!! So PLEASE DO A TOUR, BARRY! Decide where you wanna tour and pack up the family! I'm sure all your concerts would be COMPLETELY sold out!! So many love you!
Looking forward to your next chat--maybe one of those videochats?

Warmest Regards,

Pam aka TIWICI (chat room name)

121. Posted on Thursday, June 28 at 08:37 PM by CleoMio

Chat room 2 year anniversary is this month isn't it Barry? How about that webchat you've been talking about to celebrate? I can't think of anywhere or anyone I'd rather spend it with than you and my friends from chat.

122. Posted on Saturday, June 30 at 09:01 PM by margaret

Barry,
Just wanted to drop a line and hope that you and the family, are having a great summer!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait for you to sing again. Keep up the great work. We miss you. Please take care Barry.

The Bee Gees Rocks forever,
Margaret and Daughters

Hi Barry.

I missed your chat! I am a fan from Windsor Ontario Canada. I have been a fan of the Bee Gees for many years. I am a grandmother now and my grandchildren are fans too because your music is the only music they hear when they visit. I think they know the words to all of your songs. You were great on Idol. I loved your performance. I hope I don't miss the next chat. I will be watching for it.

124. Posted on Sunday, July 15 at 02:13 AM by Joyce

Just watched the Biography Channel show of the BeeGees - what a great music legacy your family has left for generations. What has impressed me with the show and your website is your family values and "longevity" of marriages - a rarity in your business. My brother was the 80's disco guy - I had a 7 yr old at that time.
I have gotten back in touch with music and just bought my brother your One Night Only CD that I already have.

CMT's Top 100 Duets was on tonight and I made a bet with my husband that "Islands in the Stream" with Kenny and Dolly would win number 1 - well he owes me! I just realized your home in TN burnt - tragedy - I hope you plan to restore it.....

The BeeGees have made this 55 year old lady sick again!

125. Posted on Wednesday, July 18 at 03:24 PM by Phyllis

I listened to part of UnderWorld that will be on the Arctic Tale soundtrack. WONDERFUL! I LOVE THAT SONG!
Is there anyway we can get that as a single (with the other side being Dr Mann, maybe?) awesome again.
I did hear UnderWorld in its entirety a few months ago and loved it the first time I heard it. I am sooo excited for you that it will be on a soundtrack for ALL the world to hear!!! LOVE it!!!!!!
Love U!
As ever your fan! PT2

126. Posted on Tuesday, July 24 at 06:14 PM by CleoMio

Barry I wish you and Robin as well as Yvonne and Andys estate would consider creating a Bee Gees / Brothers Gibb Museum in the Miami area. With the closing of Middle Ear your fans are floundering with no specific destination to see our "heroes".

There has to be volumes of memorabilia of your own as well as things fans have collected and would love to donate to fill a warehouse? If you think this museum would not draw fans you couldn't be more wrong......we all would like to spend time wandering through rooms of pictures, watching videos and listening to interviews as well as the music. A special place to get an "inside" look into your creativity.

Having a special place where fans can gather and pay their respects to you and your brothers is a dream of mine. Middle Ear tours were not available on any kind of regular basis and many of us never got there at all, this would be a wonderful place for us to come together from the world over.

I wish I could be more articulate in verbalizing my thought but know the sentiment behind the words is genuine.

Your fan always and forever.
CleoMio

PS. I would gladly donate my services....tee hee.
