Rough Draft

Random Entertainment Update

Haven't updated in a while, but here's a rundown of what I've been up to.

Last Thursday, Jeff and I went to see the San Francisco Symphony at Severance Hall. Case gives away tickets each week to see the Cleveland Orchestra, and Jeff one last week and invited me to go along with him. This was my first time seeing an orchestra/symphony at Severance and really my first concert of that type period. I enjoyed it a lot and thought the musicians were pretty amazing. I was amused by the guy in front of us that was shouting "Bravo!" at the end of the show.

Friday afternoon and evening turned out to be entertainment packed. Lynn and I watched Love Actually in the afternoon, which I actually enjoyed a lot. Jeff and I went to the 7 pm showing of 21 Grams. It was a pretty good movie. The actual plot was pretty weird, but the real hook was the very nonlinear manner in which the story was told.

After that, I walked up to The Spot to see Lynn sing with Case in Point at the Casino Night. They were missing a few members due to the play Where's Charley (more later), but still sounded really good. On a side note, congratulations to Lynn on getting the solo for White Flag, I'll be looking forward to hearing that at their spring concert or Spring Fest. Speakeasy performed after Case in Point, so Lynn and I stayed for that. Bryan Munch, one of my Lego Lab group members, is in it and had a couple solos. I also recognized another Brian from my Music Theory class.

After Speakeasy sang, Lynn and I stopped by the Silver Spartan for some food and milkshakes. The food itself was good, but the service was pretty lacking. The waitress forgot my order, then after writing it down, she brought out my french fries and Lynn's eggs, but still forgot we ordered milkshakes. Lynn also had to go up and ask for a fork.

After that we went over to Thwing (after finding a sign and checking the location) to see the midnight, err 11:59, performance of Where's Charley. Sean and Kim from CiP had two of the main roles and a girl from my music theory class had the other main female role. It was a good show, and kept me entertained. Actually, I should mention the play wasn't quite what I was expecting, since the flyers for it implied Amy was in love with Charley, a crossdresser. In actuality, Charley was just an actor, and through certain circumstances, had to end up pretending to be his aunt.
