It is wonderful that after so many other entertainers have performed with the Tabernacle Choir and the Orchestra on Temple Square we now get our own Osmonds on stage, its about time, should be wonderful.
Unfortuately the whole event is on air, after midnight, our time.
So I`ll probably miss it.
Nevertheless wish you a great celebration.
I have to agree what a great place to end their 50th anniversary tour - here where it all started. Wish I could be there to see it all. The Osmomds have always played an important part in my life and I still admire them for staying clean-cut and morale as Alan Osmond said. Congratulations Osmonds and keep moving forward.
I love the humor of the Osmond family. They have not had an easy life, yet they've stuck together and had a lot of fun. I am glad they are a part of our society.
It would be so awesome to be in the Conference Center to see this amazing experience! Thank you, Osmond Family & The Mormon Tabernacle Choir, for the wonderful roles you have taken part in my life.
Sad to say there are alot of fans mostly who were unable to get tickets for this. So if you couldn't get a ticket for the small audience in Lasvegas, didn't live somewhere in all those countries overseas, or get a special ticket to this event, you'll never be able to see the whole family on stage ever again. I wish they wold have thought about the U.S. fans who have been there every step for all these decades. Im happy their going out the way they want to but sad for all of us who deserved at least one fair chance to see them all on stage one last time in a real concert.
How fitting that their world tour would end this way. They deserve all the accolades they've received and more. As role models for me growing up, I couldn't thank them enough.
CONGRATULATIONS and thank you Osmonds!! Enjoy your concerts in the Conference Center!!! What a beautiful hall to perform in and finalize what has been an amazing ride! 50 years of entertaining....can't say anything but thank you for continuing as you have so that we, your fans, could enjoy the ride with you! It's been just as fun for us, too!!! God Bless You All!!!
They are such a great family and I am blessed to have had them in my life. I was lucky enough to get tickets to these shows and it should be a good one. Thank you Osmond's for all these great years!
Disappointed - I agree with you.
Thank you Osmonds. You have been a big part of my life for 38 years. I wish, like many, you would have thought of your US fans and played more concerts here. If we couln't get tickets or attend the few shows in the US we were out of luck. You have many fans here who would have loved to see you all one more time. I'm disappointed and heartbroken. The US fans are an important part of your 50 years too. Congratulations on your success.
I hope some consideration will be given to rebroadcastng this event at a time more viewer friendly to we fans outside the US, who have followed the family for their entire careers. For those privileged enough to attend, enjoy.
How I wish I could be there to witness such a wonderful event and what a fitting ending to the Osmonds 50th celebration. I was unable to make it to one of their concerts due to being out of the country when they were peforming in my area. I feel a very deep and profound gratitude to this amazing family who have influenced my life and have played a major part in my conversion to the gospel. They have been such great ambasadors for the Church and continue to be so. Keep up the great work. Your parents must be looking down and feeling so so proud of you. I am so proud to be an Osmond Fan and have followed their carears from the very beginning and have been amazed at all they have accomplished.
I agree with everything here... mostly that the US fans were snubbed by our favorite family. We had ONE fleeting chance to be able to see the amazing family and sadly MOST OF THE US fans were unable to ever see this family perform together again.
I look forward to watching the broadcast of these shows! I have been an Osmond fan since 1971 and I will continue to be a fan for the rest of my life. I was able to see their performance in Vegas, and it is awsome to see them still performing together after all these years.
I would love to be present for this event..but I live in Wisconsin.
But would love to get a cd if one is produced.
I love this family alot..their wholesome music and loving family is something that our country will cherish forever.
George and Olive smiling down from heaven at what their kids are doing.
WONDERFUL FAMILY! Have to agree with Dissapointed and Bittersweet-I live in the South and we NEVER get to see our favorite family here.It's not like we don;t have entertainment venues.Not everyone can travel across the country with families and cost of living.
I'm sure it will be a beautiful experience with the choir, breathtaking I'm sure; and knowing how this day means so much to their families. If all families would take their cue, think how many children would have a happier upbringing and make happy and productive adults.
God bless the Osmonds!
thank goodness for Bonafuse!!!
God Bless the Osmonds! They have been the music of my life for 45 years! I was able to see one 50th show in Vegas and if I could would see them in SLC as such a fitting place for them to end their tour with the MTC. It will be a glorious blending of heavenly voices.
I am sure Mother and Father Osmond are looking down with such Love and Pride.
How I wish I could see them perform live in concert one last time! The last time I saw them in concert was in Tx in 1982, but Jimmy was in Japan so the entire family wasn't present. Also Tom & Virl did not get up on stage with them at that time.
It would have been nice if they had also thought to tour the United States for their World Tour.
Knowing how much they love the gospel it is very fitting that they perform with the MTC. It would be nice if the concert would be available on dvd or cd for theose of us that can't make it to Salt Lake to see it live.
I have been an Osmond fan since the age of 4 in 1968 and have been a member since 1983. Often I get ask if I joined because of the Osmonds, my reply is yes due to their example. I wanted to learn more.
Thank you for sharing the gospel and being a part of our lives for over 50 years.
