Rock of Ages
Recently my beautiful wife and I went to see “Rock Of Ages”, a Broadway musical featuring rock from the 80s and 90s like Foreigner, Extreme, etc.
We had really good seats. They were “Just Like Paradise”. My knees bumped the stage.
We were excited to see a great show starring Constantine from American Idol (Judge me if you will). We were disappointed initially when we found out that not only was Constantine out but so was his counterpart, so both roles were being played by understudies. I said “disappointed initially” because it wasn’t long before it was painfully obvious that the understudies could take us “High Enough” American Idol or not.
The band—Arsenal was TIGHT! Tighter than zebra spandex on the lead singer of Krokus!
The show was stunning all the way down to the leg warmers and straight jacket. I wish we could see it again!
We had “Nuthin’ But a Good Time”.
