Les Misérables

fter a lovely French dinner (steack frites FTW) and a walk around downtown, we are just about to head into the auditorium for Les Misérables, a very significant show for us.

We first saw Les Mis on our first trip to London together, cheap last-minute obstructed-view seats, and it blew us away. We've seen it many times since, we own the original French concept album and a couple of different cast albums on LP and CD... we even have a documentary video on laserdisc. Okay, it's kind of hokey and formulaic, and the music isn't as good as we once thought it was, but it's Our Show.

Now if I can only stop myself from singing along using the Forbidden Broadway version of the lyrics...
