Thank God for the CBC

[thebitterguy]

So, this morning, during my morning drive, the CBC mentions that they've got tickets available for Annie Get your Gun at Massey Hall.

Being the sucker for musicals I am, I decided to go for it.

I won. Yay me!

Yay you! Except, you realise Billy Ray Cyrus is in it.

[thebitterguy]

I'm aware. But, hey, free.

You see, bringing up Billy Ray Cyrus would have been a counter-argument to my last post that I would have struggled to refute.

[thebitterguy]

Oh, hush. Free! Annie get your Gun!

Besides, just because he sings the worst song don't make him a bad singer. Just a bad person.

I was actually commenting on his music, not the musical itself. The nightmare that is his musical career proves nothing about this particular show, since he didn't write the music.

[thebitterguy]

His effect on the culture can be compared to the black plague. I believe he could be blamed for Nu-Country.

Which means he deserves six bullets in the chest. AFTER Wednesday.

Nah, New Country predates him by quite a bit, I'm sure. Randy Travis, y'know.

[thebitterguy]

Travis was practically traditional Country, maybe a little up tempo. I have no idea what Garth Brooks was.

The whole alternate persona thing was just creepy.

You're gonna get yourself in big trouble if you keep thinking like that. :D

A free musical is like sex. Even when it's not that great, it's still pretty good.

[anidada.livejournal.com]

I'd counter both assumptions, but y'know, it would just get weird... :D

Don't break my heart...

I had no idea that you were a fan of musicals.

They used to be one of my secret vices (and still would be, if I ever had the time).


::B::

[thebitterguy]

I don't think it's a huge secret. I've just never really had a chance to see too many of them.

I'm still futiley hunting for a copy of the movie soundtrack for Guys & Dolls, so if you have any leads on one let me know.

Will your wife be home in time, or are you taking a friend? Hmm?

[thebitterguy]

Regretfully, it will preceed her return. Why? You wanna come?

[redeem147.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't say no, should you have an extra ticket. Depending on when, of course.

[thebitterguy]

Wednesday evening, 7:30.

I believe that I am free :)

Or at least inexpensive.
