Broadway tunes are not my thing, rather something to suffer through, but spending an evening with friends, eating yummy food, drinking well executed beverages, was well worth the auditory assault. The fireworks were fabulous, if short lived. I took full advantage, snapping away the whole 5 minutes. We sat too close to the well marked walkways, and therefore suffered a steady procession of restless attendees who apparently shared my lack of love for Broadway tunes. However, the many members of the card carrying short-attention-span generation at least provided some lively entertainment as they wandered past. While not a Broadway aficionado, I at least had the manners to be still for the duration of the musical segments. For this local popular event, my whole point was to hang out with good friends and share the goings on of our lives, an all too uncommon activity these days. A successful evening by any account.
