“The only bummer is that on Monday morning, right after the last Las Vegas show, I go into the hospital for another operation on my poor messed up hips,” wrote Manilow on his website. “It’s not hip replacement – never has been. I seem to have ripped the abductor muscles on both hips and messed up my bursas.”
