COLIN QUINN==>A


Friday==>I hope that everyone, including my Worker Bee friends, has a great weekend, and, guys, don’t forget that Sunday is Mother’s Day. Yeah ... that’s right guys ... Mother’s Day ... you are so very welcome. 

Anyway ... let’s get started with your favorite blogger’s report card on last night’s entertainment event ...

COLIN QUINN - UNCONSTITUTIONAL, the comic tackles 226 years of American Constitutional calamities in 70 minutes==>A

The show is in-your-face-funny, timely and very thought-provoking.

In the name of fair and unbiased reporting I must reveal that Quinn is not one of my favorite performers so I had many misgivings about this show. I only booked it because of recommendations from several of my theater-buddies, including My Lady aka Dian Crystal.

Well, my loyal and faithful readers and followers, Billi Pod is glad that he listened to them because this was a totally enjoyable evening from the moment Quinn came on stage until he left to roaring applause 70-minutes later.

If you are a freethinker then this is definitely the show for you, however, if you are the slightest bit prudish/conservative/Republican ... then ... stay far far away.

The show is at The Barrow Street Theatre and runs through June 3rd.

Billi Pod’s entertainment event for tonight is an Off Broadway musical ...

7:30==>CARMEN’S PLACE (A Fantasy) - “3 young opera singers are rehearsing Bizet’s classic opera, Carmen, when they meet a coffee shop waitress whose name is also Carmen. Friendships develop and their lives are forever changed.” (Off Broadway - complimentary ticket)

This is playing at The Castillo Theatre in my immediate ‘hood.

OK ... now on to some sports stuff ... for you Marty, wherever in the f**k you are ...

Last night The Yankees beat The Rockies 3-1 in a game that had a 2-hour rain delay. With the win The Bronx Bombers inched into the lead in the AL East, for the first time this season.

Tonight @ 8:10pm, in Kansas City, is the first game of a 3-game series against The Royals. It will be Phil Hughes (1-2) for The Bombers vs. Wade Davis (2-2) for The Royals.

OK, everyone out there in the hinterlands, wastelands and boondocks ... it is a beautiful morning here in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World ... 72º at 11:30am ... so your favorite blogger feels the urge/need/desire to post this and then head outside for a major walk and wander session ... so ...

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE!!

Yesterday’s Pedometer mileage==>5.05 miles (or, 11,042 steps)

Total mileage since 7/1/12==>1,460.81 miles

GO YANKEES!!
