Nothing wrong with a little nostalgia for the Valentine’s weekend…
And so the girls and I started it off in style on Friday night by attending the Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) concert at Emperors Palace. These guys can still rock. The all-female string section was amazing too. They had us dancing in the isles and singing along to familiar tunes such as The Diary of Horace Wimp:
Later, it was back to the hood for more late-night moonlight (yes, a full moon) dancing like hippies.
Saturday saw us at a superb performance of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. And the Time Warp of course:
Seeing quite a few of the other attendees in full drag kind of made me regret not daring to go the full monty. All I could risk was being draped in feathers. Maybe next time…
Even without Mr. Jeff Lynne, ELO can bring it. I hope they played “Fire On High” for your sake, Lenny.
Actually no, but would have been awesome. Phil Bates is a pretty decent frontman though.
It seems I am definitely out of the music scene. I didn’t even know ELO was in S.A. Just goes to show!
I do know one thing though; Carlos Santana will be here soon!
Hey Andre,
Are you going? Saw Santana back in ’95 in Toronto, performing with Jeff Beck. Awesome!
