How do I love thee, Hollywood Bowl? Let me count the ways....
Imagine a sky dotted with stars (or exploding with colorful fireworks), the sweet bouquet of a Moscato coming from the red plastic cup in your hand, and the sound of violins (cellos, piano, clarinets, drums...) drifting through the air on a warm summer breeze.....le sigh...
My love affair with the Hollywood Bowl is still going strong, and this summer's calendar does not disappoint. There are definitely a few shows that have struck my fancy, and I'd love it if you fabulous guys & gals could join me. So check out the following posts (one for each show) and let me know if you are interested in going.
I plan on buying tickets 2 weeks prior to the event. I prefer to keep all the RSVPs on this blog so they are centralized but you can email, text or call me as well.

Hey all! This is my first attempt at blogging so please bear with me. My brother suggested blogger.com as a good tool for me to use to post info on this summer's Hollywood Bowl events, artist info, relevant video clips, etc. Plus y'all can let me know if you are interested in going to a particular event and how many guests you plan on bringing via the Comment feature.
Thanks!!
