Yesterday, our older daughter turned six. We went to the circus and saw elephants, some tigers, and the usual amazing acrobatics.Tonight was a night of not so impressive vocal acrobatics. The soloist for tonight's pop concert was a Streisand impersonator. I would say counting was not her specialty. She apparently does something in Vegas and won some performance on contest on Fox, but we were the lucky guinea pigs for her first orchestral show. A Frank Sinatra impersonator joined her for some songs and some not-so-witty repartee that included some quite offensive ethnic "jokes". It is possible to find quality soloists for pop shows, so I do not know why we have to get this lounge lizard stuff. Ick!
