The Ring Cycle Is In Melbourne - petersj - 28-11-2013
While many arguably most would not be able to think of any thing worse than sitting through about twenty two hours of over the top high drama opera many will be thinking its the event of a life time. If you can endure that much high art it will be an unforgettable experience but to see the full thing it could set you back over two thousand. Far too much for me plus I am not in dear Melbourne.
Still for lovers of Wagner and there are clearly hundreds of them as I have heard its selling out fast it will be worth every cent.
So visitors this will be the one to see.
Just google Ring cycle there is lots of information.

Congrats to all back in Melbourne on the Ring. I have even heard of it here. Bigger than when you hosted the Olympics in the fifties. Well not quite lol. But its an amazing achievement and totally BOOKED OUT!

Opera is certainly alive and well. Also read that the under thirties are flocking! Still they might be more likely to have a spare three thousand dollars than us oldies.

Hi green guy! Hope you are having a great time over there! I still spend most of my time on baby duties so have not been to the site much.

Its not without its problems here but generally pretty good. I find the kindness of Asian people so uplifting.
I noticed the new Lib Gov is not sending a representative to the united nations climate change confer.. says it all really. Cutting ABC funding. Aus is going to be in a mess. Glad I am here.
Still the right wingers can gloat now. They wont have anyone to call stupid. Pityso many left and mods left the site.
Thanks for responding mate and hope all is great.

Yes all is good over here. Baby is 20 months old now and doing well. Though she developed asthma which is a shame. Hopefully it is just temporary.
