I'm off work for three weeks!
I took time off to GO TO THE FUCKING OPERA!!!
Yes. Starting next Tuesday I'm going to the whole fucking Ring Cycle at the Royal Opera House! Over the space of about a week. It's gonna be AWESOME. (Seen the whole thing once before, but it was a different staging and the individual operas were three months apart, which kind of fucked the momentum a little).
...and even better than that, in December I'm going to see Parsifal there. And I came into some money, so I thought FUCK IT and bought the ticket that cost two hundred quid. Now, one of my favourite things about going to the opera is the fact that, despite people constantly moaning that they need to change the demographic it appeals to, I always get filthy looks from everyone in the bar beforehand, like they think I'm gonna try to nick their shit. I really like the idea of being able to breeze past them into the comfiest seat in the house. And of course, the best part is I've never seen Parsifal before, and it's one I've long wanted to see.
HOOrah! |
