Pipe down you ratchet monkeys. I can hardly type with the sounds of merry rejoicing blurstering froth from your celebratory noodle noggins. Ahem... where exactly in this preamble was I... oh yeah... The "not nearly as divine as she thinks she was (or is) at least not to us - who aren't exactly her target demographic anyways unless she had Mastodon or Wilco or Squarepusher as a backing band Miss M" Bette Midler - has announced... hey shut up will ya? Class... claaaaasss.... claaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssss! Shaaaaaaaaaaaat Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup!

*Thank you*

Ahem.

Bette Midler has announced that her please please please relatives from out of town who make me go to Vegas with them to show them around but then force me to go see stupid shit like this that i can't stand show at Ceasars Palace will have its final performance on January 31, 2010, presumably clearing up her schedule to fuck up the Super Bowl this year.

Christmas has come early? A belated Trick or Treat from some lady wearing the cow face costume? The nightmare before she moves the show to Encore? A rumbling of the wind beneath my shorts?

Bette says she's leaving to go release an album and go on tour or something, but the facts are that this show isn't selling a lot of tickets and sold out a total of three shows of 71 shows in all of 2009. Here's the stats if anyone wants to dump them into XLS file and make some graphs. By comparison, Celine Dion's "A New Day" sold out 108 of 122 shows in 2007.

Could we add Tower of Power to that list? Parliament Funkadelic sans George?

Just a thought, since we have Garth, if Ceaser's holds consistent, is Shania Twain headlining not to far away?
