Il Volo Professional ~~ Il Volo in New York; Etihad Gala and “Extra” Appearance

All the professional dealings of Il Volo

Hey, Everyone!

We know that Il Volo is in Mexico right now, but they had a short stop in New York to promote the new launch of Etihad’s service between New York and Abu Dhabi.  They also made an appearance on the TV show, Extra, interviewed by AJ Calloway.

I think that even though the guests at the gala were talking around them, they had a great appreciation for the guys and their music.  😉

Thank you to all of our affiliates and Lydka for helping me out with videos! ~~ Kelly

Il Volo Professional ~~ Back to the USA…For Now

Hey Everyone!

Il Volo is back on American soil, and how sweet it is!  Even though I am nowhere near where they are and will not be seeing them this trip, it always makes me feel happy that they are here.

I know they enjoy being here and never forget us…as evidenced by their Facebook post on September 11, an infamous day for Americans:

 

How sweet they are!  Grazie Millie, for remembering us and for showing us support as we think of that tragic day!

Il Volo is making the rounds between PBS stations and interviews for “Il Volo — Live from Pompeii” and the new album, so they are busy boys even now; they never have a rest, it seems, and yet they are as gracious as ever.  They’ve been greeted by fans and are smiling as big as ever.   Have a look at their run so far…

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT……..

Hi Everyone,

Take a deep breath and wipe away those tears. The time has come for “Our Boys” to go home to their family and friends. Piero, Ignazio and Gianluca have given us the gift of themselves for more than a few months now. We have seen them live, seen some great videos and wonderful photos! We have all that to remember them by while they take a little time at home. We don’t know when they’ll be back here in America, but we’ll keep in touch the best ways we have. Remember Gianluca loves to keep in touch with his fans and Piero and Ignazio usually will send Tweets and the occassional Keek to let us get a glimpse of their lives. We respect their privacy, but we do like the little updates they share with us.

I thought you might like to see a little of where they call home!

Piero calls Naro a town in Sicily home. In his beloved Naro, Piero likes to hang out with his friends and his sister, Maria Grazia.

Ignazio goes home to Marsala, also in Sicily. He enjoys hanging out with his friends and driving his new car!

Gianluca calls the Hamlet of Montepegano, in the Abruzzo Region, home. When he’s home he enjoys going to the beach with friends and watching his brother, Ernesto play Soccer.

Twitters, Tweets and Keeks:

Gianluca: “A girl with intelligence is sexy” Last night: “Buenas night” See his Keek “Greetings from NY” On Mundial.

Piero: Shopping and smiling around #NYC with @barbaravitali”

Ignazio: “Sushi heart for everyone” with a picture, and today, ” Snowing!! Good morning New York, last day!!!” See his picture in the snow on All Things Il volo.

See Connie’s Il Volo story under “my Il volo Experience” .

Dates coming up in Italy: December 14th, concert at The Basillica of St Francis of Assissi in Assissi, Italy. December 18th in Scala at The Bascillica di San Lorenzo. It is unsure if we  can see these concerts here in the USA, but i’m sure there will be videos available on UTube.

Of course we’re all sad today, but the sadness is somewhat tempered by their joy in going home!! Until you come back again, Piero, Ignazio and Gianluca, stay well, enjoy your Christmas and God speed for your flight to Italy!!

OOPS got to run, have to find Marie!! The last I heard she was seen at the airport running after a jet heading for Italy!!

Hi Everyone,

By all accounts, pictures and videos; the concert, last night in Westbury was a resounding success and according to Gianluca, was a sell out!!

Twitter, Tweets and Keeks:
Gianluca tweeted, “Fans of all ages waiting for us outside the venue in Westbury. Love you all” He later tweeted “Westbury, thanks for #sold out”
Gianluca tweeted last night, “I’m a fool to want you”
Piero tweeted, “Leaving Westbury on way to Saratoga Springs, thank you so much for the third time” He later tweeted, “Saratoga Springs, Buonanotte”
Ignazio tweeted, “Ready for Westbury”, then “Amazing tonight, hard life, but worth it” He later tweeted, “you never know whats gonna happen to your life, so just live it” ( he’s so right!)

There are some amazing videos on Mundial, apparently the use of cameras was being allowed at this venue.
See videos of Ignazio singing “Memories,” Piero singing Love Story”and Il Volo singing “Il Mondo”, ” Surrender”, “o Solo Mio”,
“Smile”, and Gianluca singing “Night And Day”

“The Boys” are now in Saratoga Springs, New York. They must be getting a well deserved break in this beautiful upstate New York Town. Enjoy Guys!! (The photo above is of Saratoga).

Il Volo has two nights off then they open at The Tampa Bay Times Forum on September 20th, then Miami on the 21st (can’t wait!)

Enjoy your time off, Guys, rest your voices!!
