Wish I had pictures to show you (they will be posted on the WHAT A PAIR website soon)... but, alas, I don't... Anyway, it was great to watch it all come together, I watched some of the rehearsals the day before and thought maybe then it wouldn't be a surprise to watch, but with costumes, hair and makeup, and the thrill of being in front of an audience... The show was FUN... Can't wait for next year!


After the performance... the Celebrity/VIP party was filled with sweet treats including Parisian Macarons! Alas... I had one... ooh they're lovely... I will be planning a party and ordering a variety... I'm thinking Parisian Macarons, Cosmos and Sex and the City the movie DVD... anyone know when it will be released? Or... forget the party and hop on a plane for Paris?

And last but not least... Silent Auction WINNER of 2 Front Row seats at the Greek Theatre to see Robert Plant (Led Zepplin) & Alison Krauss ...



From its embryonic, conceptual stages – well before any music materialized – the mere idea of Raising Sand held infinite fascination for both its creators and those around them. As word spread of an impending musical collaboration between Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, imaginations ran wild. Two artists, each at the pinnacle of their respective pantheons, Robert and Alison have seemingly little in common. But just below the surface, an elemental understanding flowed between them, waiting to be tapped.
