@chipgreen@MarkDaSpark There was a Cole Porter concert last year that was one of the options for the meet up. The group did not go, but the wife and I did. Mitzi Gaynor made a cameo appearance and told a story about auditioning for Porter when she was 16. The meet up was at a MGM musicals retrospective. Chip seems to have seized on it.
@MarkDaSpark@cortot@scottw58 Our schedule is the same. I wonder if the light interest is because it is still relatively far in the future or possibly health concerns.
@CorTot@davirom@MarkDaSpark@ScottW58 We’re just in “two small children” mode so we’ll be last minute. Might get just me, might get both adults, might get all four of us.
@chipgreen@MarkDaSpark Last year I bought tickets early then someone posted a BOGO coupon code. Since we’re in the open seating area, I think I will wait a bit.
Apologies if my Rainman-like obsession with Cole Porter has corrupted the conversation. There is NO Cole Porter show this year! I was just carrying on some fun from last year’s discussion and some were playing along…
Motown and Fleetwood Mac! Nice!
Cole Porter!
July 11 or Cole Porter
Cole porter is sooo good, we should definitely do that!
Of the 2 dates, only Aug 29 works for us. We went to Cole Porter last year and it would be worth repeating!
Road to Motown has Marilyn McCoo, Billy Davis, & Mary Wilson!
Road to Motown
Aug 29 Fleetwood Mac tribute
So what is the consensus?
2 for Motown date ( @cortot & @scottw58 ), ok for me.
1 only for Aug 29th Fleetwood Mac ( @davirom ), with ok for @CorTot and me.
When you are referring to Cole Porter, are you referring to Aug. 8th when it’s 100 Years of Broadway? Because I don’t see any Cole Porter listed.
@MarkDaSpark
Cole Porter is always a good choice, even when he’s not one of the choices!

@chipgreen @davirom
I knew that! Some “people” referenced Cole regarding when they could go this summer. I just wasn’t sure if oldtimers was setting in for them!
Sooner we agree, sooner we can buy tickets (and more importantly, closer parking!).

I’m good with Fleetwood Mac, and no virus can stop me from listening to music and drinking with my friends
health concerns pfftt
Lisa and I will be in CA and might be able to make an August 8th date (Porter), but not July 11th or August 29th.

@chipgreen
Why in the hell would you ever even consider apologizing to us?!?
@ScottW58
I’m sorry that I apologized.
@chipgreen @ScottW58 Cut him some slack, he lives close to Canada, eh?
@chipgreen @klezman
Oh yeah sappy nice people come from Canada
@chipgreen @klezman @ScottW58 I’m sorry I called out Chip and I’m not even Canadian! Or close to Canada! (but my daughter did go to college there)
I can see Canada from my house!
Damn sometimes I miss the good old days!
@ScottW58 That was an excellent gathering!
@ScottW58 So sad this cant happen for this year…
@CorTot
Yeah damn, my favorite event every year!
This place was fun too!
@ScottW58 We were there for this one. Looking forward to the next time it will be safe there or anywhere
@davirom
Definitely!
