| It's funny how things change, isn't it? When I was a teenager, the Beatles were my idols. Now it's Placido Domingo. So last year when we were in Verona, and the Arena announced a Gala event scheduled for this year (2013) with Placido Domingo appearing, we immediately bought tickets. |

| But will he? To perform may hasten his death- but I suspect that for someone like him, to give up singing will be a different sort of death, and possibly just as fatal. |
 |
| It was a great experience to see such a master perform- even if it was mostly Wagner! |
