Attended the Seattle Symphony featuring music by Camille Saint-Saëns & Fredrick Chopin. 2nd time in my life @ the symphony. I must say, the audience is VERY gratuitous w/ applause & standing ovation than what I’m used to in musicals. Thanks for the tix Paul!
Opened Seattle Pride with the Seattle Men’s Chorus concert “God Save the Queens” – a tribute to British music. Loved “Twist and Shout!” Not a fan of Prince Poppycock though. Cast more solos from the chorus members! Miss singing with y’all!
Watched the “jukebox play” Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill. No plot except Billie Holliday gets sloshed and unravels on a nightclub stage. Great jazzy sound. Would have been amazing if drinks and maybe light food were served throughout the performance.
Watched The Marvelous Wonderettes, a jukebox musical featuring retro tight harmony girl group songs. With such incredible voices, it’s a shame they used prerecorded accompaniment. Kinda wish there was a plot too.
Attended the joint Seattle Men’s Chorus and Seattle Women’s Chorus concert “Not in Our Town” with Bobby, Andres, and Srikanth. It’s different being in the audience this time instead of the stage. Great job guys! Not a fan of Randy Rainbow’s bit though. — attending Not In Our Town at McCaw Hall.
