  <title>Barry Manilow To Play Concerts For 25 Charities</title>
  <description>Barry Manilow fans listen up: the man himself will be performing in a series of charity concerts in California at the end of the year!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Manilow will perform 5 concerts at McCallum Theatre in Palm Springs in December, with each show benefiting five different charities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Being able to give back to my hometown, both in song and charitable support, makes this concert series a very personal and special event for me,&amp;#8221; said Manilow. &amp;#8220;The 25 recipient charities are invaluable to the Palm Springs community, so extending the holiday spirit of giving to these nonprofit organizations is really a special treat.&amp;#8221;
