Front Row Madison Sq. Garden ticket available

[kay]

There may be a very desirable ticket available for thursday november 30. I have one FIRST ROW ticket that I may not be able to use. You can contact me, if you are interested: drkay@snet.net

I placed this notice on another topic in this forum because I was not able to locate a way to create a new topic. Clearly, I have now figured out how to do that.

I know it's a little late, but I will be heading to Andrea's concert at MSG tonight. If anyone would like to share a meal prior to the show, send me an email. I leave for NYC at 4:00 and have no email after that.
But, if anyone is considering it, leave an email here, and I'll get you my cell phone number.

Me again.
The concert last night at Madison Square Garden was the best I have ever seen. He was in great shape, sang the most gorgeous songs, mostly classical, many I have never heard; brought the house to its feet over and over.....it was the most truly phenomenal 2 1/2 musical hours I have ever spent.
This most wonderful tenor sang:
Vesti la Giubba; the Pearl Fisher duet [wonderful, wonderful] with Luis Ledesma; Panis Agelicus [oldie but goodie]; O Soave Fancuilla with Ailyn Perez; Di Quell Pira from Il Trovatore [oldie but goodie]. Vieni sul mar [never heard it before, loved it]; GRANADA!! Just outstanding; FUNICULI, FANICULA, [reminded me of my childhood, such a rare treat], a couple from 'Amore", including Because we Believe which was such a thrill, then several encores: The Prayer , a never failing delight, and, then, the finale.......... AAAAHHH the song that started me loving opera: Nessun Dorma...............I didn't know whether to jump up and down and cheer or cry my eyes out. [I did a little of both]
This concert reinforced my great admiration, excitement, and love for the man and his music.
The choice, arrangement [Mercurio]., sequence and quality of each song was a singular jewel unto itself: together, IT ROCKED !!!
I haven't seen nor do not care what any critics have written regarding this phenomen; I was there and I know what I heard, saw, and experienced.

Kay,

This is such a delight to read 1st thing this morning.

Thank You so much for sharing your experience.

I'm thrilled you had such a great time Kay! Sounds like the programme was a little different to the other concerts of the tour, and it sounds wonderful!

Thanks for your report Kay!

Brill report, Kay! Glad you had such a wonderful time.

Kay, I was just wondering--was that ticket you were trying to get rid of originally YOURS and when no one took it, you went anyway? Or did you have a spare you were trying to get rid of? If it was your ticket, aren't you glad no one took you up on a sale?! The concert program was nearly identical to the one I saw in June and that was one of the best shows ever! I totally know what you are talking about when you talk about how great last night's show was. GRANADA completely blew me away!!!

Kay, you got a bit excited there think.....

Great to hear it was so wonderful ...

Janice: that was a ticket I was prepared to sacrifice. I was feeling a bit out of sorts with the whole Tom Cruise episode and had almost decided to forego my ticket. [Kind of like a sulking adolescent.} When no one offerred to buy it; I was certainly not going to trash it. Of course, I am really glad it all turned out as it did. Isn't it interesting how we keep discovering that people we idealize are just people?
I thoroughly enjoyed the concert [as is obvious]; and am the wiser for the experience.

Yes, I re-read it, and I sound like a teenager after her first date. [And I didn't even get kissed !!]
I felt a need to express that happiness that being at the concert brought me....where on earth I can do this besides here is beyond me.

how interesting Kay. I know that a FRONT ROW seat to a Bocelli concert is a RARE thing these days.. and I am TOTALLY surprised no one came and snatched that ticket up from you !

which only goes to show you ... everything happens (or in this case... doesn't happen) ... for a reason.

I'm glad you had such a great time ! ...

and who better to understand how you felt ... except another bunch of *teenagers*

It is great to have someplace to express your feelings after a wonderful experience - especially to folks who know what you mean!
