Spyro Gyra at Blue Note
I’ve been listening to Smooth Jazz for 30 years. I own nearly all of the CDs/LPs from my favorite performers. Until a few years ago, the only two that I had seen live were Earl Klugh, who I saw in 1981 in Carnegie Hall, and Chuck Mangione at Radio City Music Hall around […]

Girlyman at Birchmere
Last night was our 13th time seeing Girlyman live. The last time we saw them was the only time we took no guests. Last night, we set a new record (previously 19 at Highline Ballroom). Including us, we purchased 26 tickets for last night’s show. Two of our expected guests missed their flight […]

Mary Poppins
Laura and Chris saw Mary Poppins on Broadway last year and raved about it. Aside from Wicked, we rarely see any shows unless we go with friends who are visiting NYC. Chris’ parents are in town visiting them this week, and Chris and Laura bought four tickets to take them to see Mary […]

Ceili Rain at Tin Angel
If you’ve visited this space before, then you know we love Ceili Rain. After listening to them for years, we finally got to see them live this summer and I wrote about it in this post. That show was awesome in every respect. That said, it was an outdoor concert, and that has […]

Girlyman at Infinity Hall
Last night was our 12th time seeing Girlyman perform live. You’d think there wouldn’t be an opportunity for too many firsts but you’d be wrong. Amazingly, this was the first time we’ve seen Girlyman where we went alone. In the previous 11 shows, the smallest group we brought was two additional people, and […]

Amy Rivard and Alex Berger at Waltz Astoria

Wicked Again
Yes, last night, we were Wicked again (oh, I mean we saw Wicked again). 😉 It was our eighth time (yes, we love it that much). We were taken by our wonderful goddaughter and her wonderful husband, dinner included (more on that after a quick review of the show). Thanks! There was a […]

Forty Years or One Day?
This was a very big year for two of our dearest friends. In fact, the past 40 days alone have seen a number of milestones and celebrations. The wife just had a big birthday (had a zero at the end), their first grandchild turned one, the husband had a birthday, and to cap […]

Earl Klugh and Bob James at Blue Note
Earl Klugh is my favorite solo jazz guitarist, and has been for 30 years! Bob James is my favorite solo jazz pianist, and has been, for nearly as long! I’ve seen each of them perform (separately) at the Blue Note, but last night, finally got to see them play together, for the 30th […]
