    Lovin it :)

    Must go see both live.

    Must smokey el joint beforehand to kill this tinnitus that has been getting noticeably worse as of late, half its more noticeable now/half I keep mentioning it. It really gets in the way of appreciating music... I have to turn things up to hear them properly, and in turn it makes it worse, the happy medium eludes...

    At least I've got a constant ringing to remind me of my past :)

    One of things I really miss about London is the diverse music scene. There was always something worth seeing, whatever day of the week and no matter how little money you had.

    Some of the street music in London or Dublin is great.

    Opera and classical are so relaxing. I've seen a few operas. They are a must see!

    When I went to the opera with my ex, we used to go the whole hog. Dressed to kill, dinner, champers, brandy. Really make a big deal of it. God they were fun times.

    Yeah we did that as an "engagement gift" to each other. Dressed to kill, rented a nice room in the city. It was a beautiful experience

    I listen to Classical when the mood strikes me.

    I however can not stand Opera!

    But I listen to all kinds of music.

    I like the idea of going out for an event, just not opera.

    you know what i don't like about classical and opera? it's that my head is running a thousand miles a minute and i can't shut it off. listening to classical music makes it even worse. i end up feeling manic and out of control. i twitch, i jump, i can't slow down my head and i feel like i'm going nuts. suddenly i'm blabbering on and on about stuff that makes me stare at me like i belong in a straightjacket. rather a lot like a hyperactive person on acid. i hate it. it flips a switch in my head that i don't like to have flipped.

    it's why i enjoy stupid movies, lame books and mindless entertainment of all sorts.
