Carnegie Hall and the New York Pops
So tonight we headed over to Carnegie Hall to attend the 25th Anniversary Gala for the New York Pops. We parked a few blocks away in a garage since traffic was a little slow and hurrried over to the Hall. We had 3 minutes to spare so ran to the restroom and then found our seats.
They were pretty good parquet seats (orchestra) and we were very happy with the quality of the evening. The "Hosts" were Liz Smith, Denis Leary and Kathleen Turner. They were honouring the Yankees and Peter Max painted a piece of art to honour the Steinbrenners (Peter was there, which is pretty cool since we own an original of his). A few of the more famous performers and speakers were: Reggie Jackson, the aforementioned hosts, Cathy Rigby, Steve Tyrell, The Gatlin Brothers, Ana Gasteyer, & Tony Bennet.
All in all a very fun night. Our next outing is this friday night when we see Al Gore speak at Radio City Music Hall.
