Hi Lizzie!
Dude. If it weren't for your blog (and the 30 minutes I just spent at opera chic) I never would have even heard about his death. How lame and sad is that?
Hi Jenny! Isn't Opera Chic fabu? The entire world of opera is reeling, worried that the death of the Man Who Made Opera Relevant to the Modern World will suddenly cause ticket sales decline. Ha! There are only two opera companies in the US that even made a profit last year.
I'm an opera nerd.
