Dinner at Wolfgang's

Dinner with Wolfgang

We had diiner at Wolfgang's Steakhouse in Midtown. They tricked us by having the lunch menu outside on display. We suffered sticker shock once we got inside, because the prices were substantially higher--Substantially. I had the salmon and Shane had a filet mignon. It was good though. Not sure if this restaurant is associated with Me. Puck. I saw no sign of him.

Free Concert by the Gin Blossoms

We happened upon a free concert by the Gin Blossoms, who were taping a segment for Fox News's New Year's Eve Show. We were right near the front and should be on camera, so look for us on December 31st on Fox News (I never ever thought I would write that sentence!). I wanted to give Shane a big kiss while on cam on Fox News, but he wouldn't go for it. The trio of bimbos...I mean reporters (2 blonds and a brunette--i didn't think they hired non-blond spokes models)introducing the band looked like vacant-eyed Miss America contestants. The Gin Blossoms sang Hey Jealousy and a couple other songs... Very cool. I'm not sure why the band would agree to appear on The evil Fox News, but they did talk about their recent trip to Iraq and how happy they were that things were winding down over there. That probably will get cut though, since it is outside the Fox News talking points.

Our Next Show: Time Stands Still

We're seeing a regular play--a non-musical with Laura Linney and
Christina Ricci... Time Stands Still.

My Review of Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson

We could have seen Donny and Marie! BBAJ reminded me of those singers
from the FreeCreditReport.com commercials... For 90 minutes. Big
mistake.

Street View from Our Hotel

We're only on the third floor, so Shane is concerned about street
noise. The Hotel seems nice (clean) though. Posted this while in the
theater waiting for Bloody Bloody to start.

A Quick Bite Before the Show

Where else but Mickey Ds.

Time Square Crowd

Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson

This is the musical we got tickets for at TKTS. I heard it was
good... We'll see.

Shane Checks for Bed Bugs

We arrived at our hotel--a Courtyard Marriot in lower Manhattan.
We're trying to get up to Time Square in time to see a matinee.

Inside the Tunnel

I'm driving Shane crazy with all this blogging. Listening to NYC from
Annie.
