Everyone was hoping to have Christmas in February. There is never a bad time for the Christmas cheer. We found out in November that the Lone Star Ballet’s Nutcracker was going to have to reschedule their normal Christmas performance.
What can I say about my friend Vicki McLean? She is a fabulous person. She really is that. I met her back in 2008 when she came in to visit me at a radio station I worked at many moons ago. She would come in and talk about Dracula. Oh and of course the Nutcracker Ball and any other great ballet they had in between.
It seems that the holiday season brings out the romantic side in all of us. If you have a significant other, you want to enjoy cozy nights cuddled up on the couch together as often as possible. There are so many fun things to do in Amarillo around this time of year, though, that you can't pass up the opportunity to take your sweetie out...
I think Tchaikovsky would be proud of this rendition of the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies from The Nutcracker. The song is played entirely on glasses and the sound is beautiful. Check out the video and see for yourself. It is amazing.
