Bette Midler On Still Not Doing A Tour In 1977: “First of all, I travel with 30 people in my troupe. There are 8 in the orchestra, 3 girl singers, the lighting and sound guys and all the rest. We travel by plane and car, so it’s not all that profitable. You don’t go out on the road to make a lot of money anyhow. It just creates interest and excitement so people will buy your albums. (Mister D: Times have changed. I believe the opposite is true now.)(Marietta Journal, June 22, 1977)
