Billi Pod’s Report Card On The NY Philharmonic Concert.

Let’s start off this overcast morning with Billi Pod’s report card on last night’s NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA concert presentation of The Thomashefskys - Music and Memories of a Life in Yiddish Theater”==>A.


As I posted yesterday, the Tomashefskys were the grandparents of the evening’s conductor, Michael Tilson Thomas, and he narrated the program, which was a semi-staged production with 4 performers. The Philharmonic was reduced in size in order to sound like a Yiddish theater pit band.


At almost 3 hours, with one intermission, it was a bit long but it was a hugely entertaining and educational evening. Kudos to everyone.

Today’s entertainment event is ...


1:05==>YANKEES vs TWINS with AJ Burnett aka Loser Boi making his second start.


Interestingly, Loser Boi is 6-0 in April starts since becoming a Yankee. It is in the latter part of the season that he tanks, or at least has in the past.


It will be in the low 50s but no rain is forecast - please God, let it be so!! Last night’s game was rained-out.


Friday the Yankees head to Boston for a 3 game series against The Boston F**kSox, the consensus front-runner in the AL East, who have ... oooooooooooops ... started the season 0-5, their worst start in 15 years. Poor guys. God, Billi Pod feels soooooooooooooooo sorry for them - NOT!!


Not sure what, if anything, I will do for this evening after the game. I might take in a movie, either Win Win or Paul.


GO YANKEES AND GO GATORS!!
