I was snuggled under my blanket watching "Great Moments at the Met." They had a pledge break to ask for contributions so of course I lowered the volume and...
I'm just stunned that PBS was showing "Great Moments from the Met" during a pledge drive. Out here all we get on such occasions are reunions by pop bands that...
Patrick, We east-coasters get the rock-and-roll reunions for pledge drives too. I guess they figure the rich aging hippies are going to bed early on Sunday...
I was watching and also taping, since I use the opera scenes for my classes. Unfortunately I am not sure how much of Nathan I got after the first part (I...
Clare, He was on during the last half hour so if you fell asleep and left the tape running, then you recorded it. ~Susan ... classes. Unfortunately I am not...
... Thanks for the alert. Hayden ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals? ...
Just checking in to say that I'm going to Romeo at the Met tonight! I already stuck my binocs into my purse - I'm waaaaaay up in the balcony. I'm sure it'll be...
Susan, The show must be over already since it's almost 10:00 here in the west, but I hope you had a great time and I look forward to reading about the show....
I'm working on my full account of yesterday but I wanted to pop in to say that it was FABULOUS!!! The scenery, the music, the energy, the costumes... all...
Susan, Glad to hear you had a great time. Do you really have a blog? Feel free to give us the address; I'd be curious to read it. I've mentioned mine in here ...
Patrick, Have you checked to see if there's an encore showing in your area? I can't make it on Saturday either but one theater near me is reshowing it on...
Thanks for the tip on the reshowing -- I didn't know the theaters were doing that, but I guess the viewings have been pretty popular. I'm hoping to go to ...
Isn't it fun to meet people you only "know" online? I called Elizabeth during intermission yesterday - we "met" here on this board! Yankess - well... my...
Oh, I'm sure we're vastly entertaining to everyone! ;-) As a Red Sox fan, I don't want my team to be the new Yankees, so we can all happily agree on that! ...
Thanks again for the phone call, Susan! That was great! :) Let me chime in for a sec on the Sox. I was in Vegas for the World Series this past October and...
I was in the Walter Reade Theater for the HD transmission this afternoon, and truly, Nathan was the best thing in it. Anna did not start well, but went on...
Ok I saw the encore of Romeo in the movies today and Nathan's outfit looked blue. I swear to everyone that when I was there on Wednesday it looked bright...
And a merry happy peaceful whatever-you-celebrate to everyone out there. . . . In the latest Opera News (with a blonde Susan Graham looking glam on the ...
This is not exactly a reply to anything, but I have had a week and more of celebrating Nathan Gunn. I went to the HD screening of ROMEO ET JULIETTE, in...
Claire, I can totally relate to you how you feel about War and Peace taking over your life! R&J did it to me after I saw it live! I think that opera is like a...
Clare, That sounds wonderful and I'm jealous. The closest I'm getting to War?& Peace is buying the new translation. By the way, that DVD of the Paris...
Susan, Your husband makes fun of you for listening to the CD? That seems unduly harsh. I just meant that all the marketing beforehand was about how the disc...
Patrick- He teases me that I'm turning into my parents. He's not mean - it's all good-natured. But he's changed his attitude... tonight at his brother's house,...
Hi Clare, I LOVE the War and Peace DVD. I could watch it over and over again. Nathan's death scene always makes me cry. He does such a great job in that...
I think it was this morning... not sure... but anyway here's a link to the video: http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/i_video/main500251.shtml?id=3656447n On an...
This is January 2 and all the previous messages are from December as far as I know. I don't think there has been activity since Christmas. Maybe I didn't...
When I got home tonight I started flipping through my February issue of Best Life magazine, which had just arrived, and there on page 64 is our baritone,...
