Ahhh...Music in the park

Millennium Park is awesome. They have a summer music series and this weekend it happened to feature songs from one of my favorite Gilbert and Sullivan shows, Pirates Of Penzance. This time I arrived about 15 minutes prior to the start and was able to sit in an actual seat as opposed to lawn seating(which is actually just as awesome since there are speakers everywhere and you can see just fine). It's such a great show and the songs they picked were superb. My favorite by far had to be "Poor Wandering One", although I would have liked to hear "Paradox", but I guess they can't sing them all without charging admission. ha. They also sang music from the Mikado, which was very enjoyable although I wasn't as familiar with that show.

Good stuff!!

Here is a picture of the pavillion(not taken by me. It was cloudy and yucky out so I cheated and found this online).
