ANDRE RIEU


CONCERT
Tonight Phil and I went to see Andre Rieu at Telstra Dome. We parked at Crown and had dinner there before walking up to the Dome. It was an amazing evening, the transformation of a football field into an indoor concert arena was magnificent, the stage itself was huge and covered about a third of the arena. Having seen Andre's concerts on Foxtel many times it was just wonderful to sit there and be enthralled by the music, the singers and dancers. The three male singers where unbelieveable and stole the show from the three female singers.
The show had everything, Andre and his violin, his interaction with the audience, as I said the singers, dancers, skaters, a beautiful horse drawn coach, and several hundred Pipers as part of the finale. The show went from 8.00pm with a 20 minute interval and finished at about 11.15pm. It certainly was value for money. After the show we made our way back to Crown and had a drink at the bar and then made our way home, a very late night but a good one.
