Phantom - One More Time

We (Cal and I) went to see Phantom of the Opera tonight at the Civic Center.

I tried not to let the fact that there is a sequel to Phantom called "Love Never Dies" ruin the the experience for me. It resumes the story 10 years later and Christine goes to America, Raoul is a drunk, and the Phantom returns, wins Christine's heart AND if I remember correctly, she dies.  It's just all wrong. Even the title sounds like a B grade vampire movie.

Oh well, the music tonight was as lavish as always and the chandelier exploded nicely.
