RIP


I’m glad I had the opportunity to see Pavarotti the last time he came to Texas. It was a fantastic show. It was right around the time he announced his “retirement” and his multi-year farewell tour. The sad thing about it was that the show was far from a sellout, so in order to make the audience appear to be bigger than it was, the venue closed off the upper levels and move the cheap bastards (like me) into the $100+ seats. Not bad for me, but the woman sitting next to me in the evening gown didn’t appear to be pleased.

Seeing this is making me regret my decision not to see Placido Domingo when he was in Texas during the summer.
