Lord Of The Dance

Today finds the Tube still closed so I had a nice sleep in.
I'm off to the theatre to see Lord of the Dance - Dangerous Games - NOT staring Michael Flattley.
Now before I give you my version of this event, read what one other critic had to say

I had lunch before the matinee performance at a little pub on a corner called, The Jack Horner Pub. It was great. Hardly anyone inside made a pleasant change.

Sorry it's a bit blurred


It had the best stocked bar I've ever seen, if my mate Danny worked there I'm sure he'd make the most amazing cocktails.



So it was curtain time. I learnt Irish Dancing as a child, I was fortunate enough to win a medal so watching these dancers is a treat I really enjoy. Not this afternoon I'm sorry to say.

Yes the dancing was great, when they danced and I loved seeing the full troupe going at it full pelt, but this mish mash that had a story line so hard to follow I gave up.  Question: When did Irish dancers start stripping? Yes really they did down to bikini like things. Sorry Mr Flatley but you lost me right then and there.
This show is coming to Australia, no Michael Flatley is not in it, you have my opinion. That is all!

This is my April page for the BJP. I was inspired to do this one because of a song written and sung by my friend Adam Dwyer. If you go to his site http://www.my space.com/platypus25 you can hear the song in question. "Walk on Cherry Shoes" is one of my favorites.

The Beatles Story Part 2

Today I went to the second part of The Beatles Story at Pier Head, here they have The British Invasion, The Beatles Hidden Gallery and Fab 4D. Not quite as good as the exhibition yesterday but interesting nonetheless. No I didn't try it but you can have a drum lesson with Ringo Lots of interactive things like that. The Hidden Gallery was good photos of the boys taken during the early days and not seen by the public till 2010 when they were donated to the Beatles Story. They are limited edition prints available for sale, sadly only two of John, but lots of Paul and group shots so no didn't buy one! Next up was Fab4D which is a movie goes for about 15 mins and brilliant. You get splashed with water, tickled by an octopus and bumped around. Lots of fun too! After a nice stroll along the waterfront  I arrived at The Wheel of Liverpool - very impressive, and The Echo Arena, but there is another Hidden gem here  The European Peace Monument
