It Is Tuesday In The Big Apple.

Good morning everyone from a bright but still cold Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World.


Last night’s ORATORIO SOCIETY OF NEW YORK concert @ Carnegie Hall was wonderful. My comp. seat was awesome==>second row, center orchestra. It couldn’t have been better, both location and program. It was a great evening of Saint-Saëns, Debussy and Poulenc.


A bit of background on The Oratorio Society of New York ...


The Oratorio Society, composed of volunteer singers and musicians, was founded in 1873 and in 1891 helped inaugurate the concert hall that came to be known as Carnegie Hall. It has performed there ever since, with the exception of 1960 when the Hall didn’t accept bookings because of impending demolition (which, of course, didn’t happen).

Tonight’s entertainment event is --


7:30==>THE MILK TRAIN DOESN’T STOP HERE ANYMORE - “This revival of the haunting Tennessee Williams drama stars Academy Award winner Olympia Dukakis as a wealthy American widow who has detached from the world in order to write her memoirs.” (Off-Broadway - Roundabout subscription series)


The show has received very mixed reviews, so ... we will see ...


Last night I added yet another Broadway musical to my upcoming itinerary==>MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET. I have been wanting to see it, so when it showed up on TDF I immediately booked it. Will give the details about the show in a later posting.


So, in closing ...


Earth to Charlie Sheen==>SHUT THE F**K UP!!!


GO GATORS AND GO YANKEES!!
