Turning Green

Yes, the truth is I'm incredibly jealous right now.

Ann has called with the Intermission Report from Pearl Fishers in Chicago. She says that the Gunnster has lost "at least 5 pounds" since that video was made and he was looking mighty nice. The music, she said, is glorious, but we already knew that. Eric Cutler, she reports, has an amazing AMAZING voice. Knew that from the radio broadcast. Christian Van Horn sounds great and it's a shame he's "hidden beneath all that beard/wig/robe." She is amazingly calm, probably because she skipped lunch and is actually weak with hunger.

I was doing fine with her detailed description until she said something about real live action being so much better than the photos . Then the jealousy pretty much overtook my excitement. Whaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! She had to go get back to her seat before intermission, so I called fellow blogger Lilly for a cross-country cry. Because yes, it's true, all the bloggers know each other.

Will report again once I get the next Chicago Report.

No mention of Nicole? She gave 100% despite having a cold. She sounded wonderful and looked terriffic.

And what about those priests with the torches?

It was first intermission - a brief phone call with a poor connection. More to follow. I'll be sure to ask about the torchy priests.

Dutchman--mea culpa. Nicole was amazing--radiant. One would never know she had a cold today. Of course, nothing would have held up without the torch priests--thank you! Did I say it was awesome? It was awesome.
