IT WAS UGLY....NOT THE CONCERT THE ADMINISTRATION.....!
GEE....ANY TIME 29 STRINGS ASSEMBLE......I AM THERE !
IT WAS GOING THROUGH MACHINE GUN NESTS....MOATS.....RIVERS OF ALIGATORS !
WHY THE AGONY ?
CSN TRYING TO DELIVER THEIR ANNUAL CONCERT SERIES IN DECEMBER MET BY HIGH WALLS AND MANY BARRIERS.
FIRST OF ALL.....SEVEN LIGHTS TO CROSS THE I- 15 CAUSED BY CONE DISTRIBUTOR TRAINEES AND BAD ADMINISTRATION OF ROAD LANE CHANGES AT 730 AT NIGHT !
IT WAS AWFUL...!
I ARRIVE AT CSN AT 730 ON THE NOSE FOR A 730 SHOW AND A HUNDRED PEOPLE WERE IN LINE TO BUY TICKETS !......ONCE AGAIN THE WORST CASE SENARIO...PEOPLE WANTING TO GIVE YOU MONEY AND YOU CAN'T AND WON'T TAKE IT......TWO TICKET SELLERS WORKING THEIR ASS OFF CHECKING I D'S AND SIGNING CREDIT CARDS AFTER KICKOFF !.....OBVIOUSLY SOME OF THIS IS PATRON ERROR BY NOT GETTING YOUR TICKET EARLY ! HOWEVER THIS CREATES THE "WHEN DO WE START THE ORCHESTRA CONCERT"....ANOTHER NIGHTMARE...IT ACTUALLY WENT AT 740....I GOT IN AT 744 AND MISSED THE FIRST PIECE....DOORS REOPENED AT 746 FOR WHAT TURNED OUT TO BE A 38 MINUTE MUSIC SHOW !
HERE THE ISSUE....FOR SUCH A SHORT PROGRAM AND THIS PLETHORA OF ERRORS...THEY COULD HAVE WAITED FIVE MORE MINUTES FOR US ALL TO GET IN !
AS STROTHER MARTIN SAID IN COOL HAND LUKE..."WHAT WE GOT HERE...FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE"!!
ENOUGH SAID ...WORK TO BE DONE HERE FOR THE FOLLOWING PROGRAMS IN THE NEXT WEEK.
AHHHHHHHH......THE SYMPHONY....LIKE POTATO CHIPS....NEVER A BAD ONE...FIVE PIECES...NEW CONDUCTOR..DR CHARLES CUSHINERY....NICE HISTORY...DID A NICE JOB....SHORT PROGRAM.....I REALLY ENJOYED THE LAST TWO PIECES BY CORELLI AND CUI....NICE RICH SOUND.....MUSIC HISTORY A NICE ADDED TOUCH...NICE PROGRAM.
POSTIVE AUDIENCE WITH NO CLAPPING BETWEEN MOVEMENTS AND AN ATTENDANT SHUTTING DOWN LIGHT DEVICES DURING THE PROGRAM.....YES.
NICE TO LOCK THE DOORS AT KICKOFF...ON THIS NIGHT....THIS CREATED FURTHER PROBLEMS.
LOW GRADE HERE 10 MINUTES LATE....BAD ADMINISTRATION....NICE MUSIC !
