Wednesday was a big day, entertainment wise.
Started off at Hornsby RSL with a million other mums and kids for THE WIGGLES!!! Yes, the real ones, live on stage. It was a great show, as usual (I've been to a few). The kids, big and small, had a wonderful time. It's hilarious to see all the adults (yours truly included) singing and dancing along. What have our lives become?
Hot potato, hot potato. Cold spaghetti, cold spaghetti...
This was followed by a brief adult business interlude (see post above).
Then off to the much more hip and with it Enmore Theatre for Regina Spektor with my dear friend C. First we enjoyd dinner at a Peruvian restaurant and it was really nice (I think next time I'll order the goat dish C tried, it was yummy). I think it was nice for both of us crazed mums just to sit quietly, enjoy a nice meal and a chat without screaming, tantruming children.
The surprise of the night was the loud and excited Regina Spektor fans who were just going mental during the show. If you imagine me at a Robbie Williams' concert, on speed, multiplied by 100 you'd start to get the picture. Who knew!
Regina herself was magic. She is just unique. A gorgeous pure performer, just her and the piano (and a guitar) on the stage. Just Regina and her voice and her talent. That's all she needs.
It's not just that her songs are quirky and beautiful and funny; it's not just that she does wonderful creative things with her music and her voice; it's the whole tiny amazing package.
So happy I got to experience her. Another one of life's little gifts.
