Wednesday==>Yes, like most of the Northeast today, it is majorly nasty and ugly here in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World. It rained most of last night, but, thankfully, at 11:00am it is clearing up a bit.
So ... let’s get started with Billi Pod’s report card on last night’s entertainment event ...
NEW YORK PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA @ Avery Fisher Hall, featuring works by Mozart and Britten==>EXCELLENT, as usual.
The highlight of the concert, for me, was the final number, Mozart’s Symphony No. 41 - Jupiter. It was beautiful.
My friends Al & Irene Warshauer, both attorneys, were seated next to me and that was nice because we needed some major catching-up time.
Also made contact with two other seat-mates from another series, Marie & Lenny Taylor, and that was nice, too.
Of course, at the end of the concert it was way too nasty and cold to even consider walking back to the apartment.
Moving on ...
Today’s entertainment event is a Happy Thanksgiving present from self to Billi Pod, a full-price ticket to the highly acclaimed Broadway show ...
2:00==>700 SUNDAYS - “Billy Crystal reprises his Tony-winning performance in this heartfelt and often hilarious story of growing up in the jazz world of Manhattan, growing old and the undeniable power of family.” (Broadway - full price ticket)
This well-reviewed show is playing at The Imperial Theatre on West 45th Street, has a running time of 2:15, with intermission, and runs through January 2, 2014.
Billy Crystal is one of my favorite performers. I saw the show originally back in December 2004 and loved it so there was no way I was gonna miss it when it returned.
The show is virtually sold out. Luckily self was able to score a great seat for this matinee performance, in the middle of the front row of the mezzanine. Nice!!
So ... thank you self ... Billi Pod is sooooooooooo appreciative of your thoughtfulness and generosity.
At the moment my entertainment plans for the evening are in flux ... so ... stay tuned.
STOP IT!! Yeah ... yeah ... I know ... I know ... the Gators have a game Saturday against Half Ass U. The reason I haven’t posted anything about it is because I don’t want to even consider the potential horror(s) that will probably play out at The Swamp ... so ...
Stop the fucking texts and emails ... OK ... I mean ... stop them ... N O W!!!
Yesterday’s Pedometer mileage==>3.55 miles (or, 7,774 steps)
