Melissa and I went to see A Prairie Home Companion again this year. I bought tickets last year, and enjoyed it so much that I got them again this year. PHC comes to the Hollywood Bowl each year in the first week of June, so I plan on making it a tradition!
The weather was beautiful! Melissa got a bunch of sushi for our dinner and we sat out and ate before the show started (the Bowl allows you to bring food and drink in… kinda funny - they search your bags at the gate, but allow bottles of wine, cutlery, etc. I wonder what they would actually stop you for?). She also ordered a couple of Sapporos to go with it! Perfect!
This show had the usual suspects, plus Meryl Streep, Virginia Madsen, and John C. Reilly as special guests. We were especially impressed by Meryl Streep. She sang and acted in skits and was really good! The mucial guest was a bluegrass band called Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver. If you like that kind of music, you’d love these guys. Overall, a great evening under the stars!
