Re: A night at The Opera

Nope, never been, never wanted to and never will.
I enjoy theatre and musicals but not opera.



It's just not my scene.

Re: A night at The Opera

Now that's a complicated question as opera has never been heard on the radio, seen on tv and made it onto CD.
Let me think that one over.

Reasonable response. Bugger !

(Although, I might have said the same ting until I went and saw/heard a few "in the flesh".
It can make a big difference)

Re: A night at The Opera

Opera to me is yet another example of the Emperor's new clothes syndrome.
Everyone saying 'Oh yes how wonderful' when in reality they hate it but do not wish to be considered boorish or uncouth.
Personally I consider it to be total crap.
Apart from the Gilbert and Sullivan variety that is!

I don't believe it

I'm trying to be polite and you sum up my thoughts exactly.

I know that secretly you admire me and agree with my views on most things but can't say so because of not wanting to be considered 'out of step' with the rest of the forum.....but that's OK I completely understand
