last sunday I sang in "The Manly Men of Opera"

It's a dinner/show a local opera company puts on once a year. It's basically basses and baritones singing arias, art songs, broadway, jazz solos, duets etc and choruses. It's probably the only sell out performance we have.

The large man first on the left just finished a gig with chicago opera (where he unfortunately broke his hip)and currently is singing two rolls with LA opera. The rest are either professionals, retired professionals or talented amateurs.

Must have been marvelous. Hope his hip heals up quickly.
