Star Theatre, Sydney

What's your favorite play and why?

Well I don't really have a favourite play at the moment, although I definitely prefer musicals. I did go and see two musicals (which I thoroughly enjoyed) on the weekend.

Zenophran and I went to Sydney to see The Phantom of the Opera at the Lyric Theatre in Sydney. It was a birthday present from my parents and I'd been looking forward to it for ages.

Phantom was absolutely brilliant, especially seeing it had Anthony Warlow in the lead role. I'd missed out seeing him 10 years ago in Melbourne as Rob Guest had taken over. This time, Anthony Warlow is the Phantom. He is really, really good.  :) One other thing that was much improved since I last saw it was the sound quality. :) They even used surround sound and it was gooooood!!

The other show I got to see was The Rocky Horror Show. I hadn't even realised that it was on at the moment, but when we got to StarCity on friday night, we saw the posters everywhere and just had to get tickets. I have just one comment about that - you got to love a theatre with built-in cocktail glass holders in the chairs!!

Have you bought any concert tickets this year?  What shows will you be going to?

Yep!

Bon Jovi are finally coming back to Australia and I got tickets to one of the concerts in Sydney later this month!!

The Phantom of the Opera (2004 Movie Soundtrack)

I'll also be going to Phantom of the Opera when it starts in Sydney later in the year. I'll finally get to see Anthony Warlow as the Phantom. Last time I went was when he'd just left the show and was replaced by Rob Guest (who is also good).

Do you tend to like music in particular genres, or are your tastes all over the place?  What are your most and least favorite musical genres?

My music taste is fairly eclectlic - just ask Taldals who has to put up with it blaring from the speakers in the lab. hehe
My favourite styles are 50's rockabilly and 80's rock/pop.
Least favourite would have to be rap.. I just don't get it.

Here is a some of my music collection
