Thank You For the Music

We're off to Hyde Park this afternoon to see Benny and Björn and a cast of singers performing ABBA's hits.

I was already pretty jazzed about going until I found out that Kylie Minogue will be singing "Super Trouper". Wow. It hardly gets better than that!

UPDATE: After re-reading this post, I wonder if it makes me come across as a bit camp. Readers? Your opinion please?

UPDATE 2: A great concert, enjoyed with my sweetie and 35,000 of my friends. Kylie was, of course, the highlight. Her version of "When All Is Said and Done," accompanied by Benny on his piano, was superb.

I knew you were camp way back in the STO AA days, when you and I discovered a mutual love of Bye Bye Birdie. I will never forget your Ann-Margret impression...including the toss of the head and the flip of the (in your case, imaginary) dress.

Oh, wow. There go any pretensions to masculinity (if I had any, that is)...!

You must tape your Ann Margret impression so we can all see it on You Tube.Why should Margaret the only one to enjoy it??!!

Glad you had a great time! I think you should post the Ann-Margret clip here on the blog...you know the one at the end of the movie...that way your readers can both enjoy the real thing, and sit imagining you doing your version ; )

Oh I think we'll leave it at that. As Einstein said, "Imagination is more important than knowledge."
