General Chat

I have bookmarked this as I am off out soon for the day and my final Tues night choir practice.
I have sung some of the songs mentioned in some of our concerts (one based on musical shows, another on operas). I have even (says she modestly) sung with Kiri Te Kanawa. There were about 700 other people also singing with her but they dont count.
Must dash now.
Huia.

For Jackie, we both love this song,

Hey Shimms,
It was my youngest 21st the other week and one of the pressies that her boyfriend brought her was a weekend away to London at the end of January with tickets to go and see Phantom. She is really looking forward to it.

Having never seen Phantom Tony, that was the best clip I've ever seen hun.

Gosh, he had me spellbound ... who was the young girl, think I caught the name Charlotte, didn't look like Charlotte Church, a longer name I think. Such a voice for someone so young.

Hi Tony :)

Just off to watch, gosh you lucky man, going to watch now >>>

Shimms.......

Here's another for you. My favourite ever Valjean was Peter Karrie (was lucky enough to meet him) and he was an amazing Phantom too,
