The Symphony

Well, I've added another cultural experience to my list. Friday night, some friends gave us their Nashville Symphony tickets. It was a Pops show with the works of Henry Mancini. He composed a lot of movie & tv show musical scores that you'd know if you heard--Pink Panther theme being one of the most popular. He's dead, but his daughter is very much alive and she also sang... Moon River and some other stuff.

We had a good time. The seats were amazing. The couple who gave them to us are quite successful and they have seats in Founders Boxes... we werent mingling with the general public.. lol...

There was a bit of drama at the end of the evening. We parked in a garage that offers Symphony parking and a shuttle to the center... well, we knew the shuttle stopped at 11pm, but werent concerned b/c it was really walking distance. After the show/concert/whatever, we went across the street for something to eat...

Well, all was good until we got back to the garage around 11:30.... AND it was freaking locked up... Apparently we missed the sign saying it closed at 11... so we had to take a taxi home. Luckily, Hal was able to get his car out the next day. The lady was "nice enough" to not charge him the supposed $50 fee for leaving your car overnight. The sign was certainly not obvious to us. What a crock.
