Meet the Fockers Premiere Souveniers Part 4

This scanned image is sorta hard to make out. It's a table sign from the after party. It's made of glossy thick paper. It would be folded to make a triagular sign. Probably would look better folded up in a photo. FYI, this sign is from a table of moviegoers who's last name was Focker!

This ticket is kinda rare. It's for the pre-party. Barbra did not attend. :( Did you really think she would? Only makes sense. After all, according to Rona Barrett, Barbra fears her fans!

Tickets from the premiere have been published elsewhere, but this one is unique. It was one of the tickets given to Blythe Danner for her entourage.

Ticket holders were also given "complimentary" parking. Trust me, the cost was factored into the ticket prices. But it was all for a good cause.

One of the souveniors I collected at the premiere of Meet the Fockers. Too bad I didn't find this card until afterward. With Little Fockers coming out next summer, I'll have to try the phone number and see if it still works. Now don't YOU try this!

Rona Barrett


Who can't forget Rona Barrett's publications?
If you grew up during the '70s, she was the gossip queen of the decade. She had a number of publications and Barbra was on the cover many times. While Barbra isn't on the cover of this one, she is featured in one of the headlines- Why Barbra Streisand Fears Her Fans!
The "special book-length bonus" is too long to publish here. But I'm including a juicy excerpt. BTW, anybody know who that guy is on the cover? He looks familiar.
Sprawled regally in a deep mahogany chair, Barbra Streisand watched the endless parade of models showing her the latest in women's fashions at the exclusive San Francisco apparel shop.
Barbra sat very still-occasionally turning her critical eye from a model and nodding her approval of a particular dress to the shop's top saleswoman.
Suddenly-and seemingly out of nowhere-one of the store's stock clerk's popped into the middle of the parade and advanced toward Barbra-eager, obviously a bit nervous, and with autograph book in hand.
Instantly-almost instictively-Barbra sat erect in the chair, clutching its arms tightly. As the young man approached the star, Barbra's face assumed an emotionless gaze that stopped the stock clerk in his tracks.
"Uh. . . ." he hemmed-and-hawwed, "Miss Streisand . . . do you think . . . I mean, could I please have your autograph?" he asked, his voice a genuine symphony of apologetic sweetness.
"Puh-leez!" barbra snarled, her face no longer blank. "I'm shopping!"
Don't ya just love it. They don't write articles like that anymore!

Song Worksheet 2006





I picked this up from the Philadelphia concert in 2006. I'm guessing this is for the conductor. It lists the song and musical cues from the concert. It's dated from 8/22/2006 and the song lineup changed before first concert (of course the lineup changed slightly during the tour).
I don't remember what the final lineup was for each of the concerts (although I know there are people out there who do). But a couple of song changes pop out. I don't remember Gentle Rain or Love is a Bore ever being sung during the tour. Anybody out there remember?
