One would think that Mick is going to be there on opening night (of the ballet). But he's not, is he?

Don't know yet, unless you have more info.
Less than a three hour flight from NY to Miami, seems likely to me.

Splendid! Wonderful picture, Congratulations Melanie!
Hopkins few weeks ago I worked at a party with 300 guests in DC for the Washington Ballet. That night I worked on the floor, attending a food station. It was a party to launch a new production "sleeping Beauty" All the dancers(male and female) were having a great time dressed cool, sexy . All of them in their 20's young beautiful and rocking. They danced on the dance floor to the DJ's music. A couple of them were amazing, pulling some @#$%& dance moves that were unbelievable. I could not believe my eyes how those very very well trained dancers used their classically trained technique and improvised among themselves to club music.It reminded me of "Saturday Night Fever" all the guests stopped, watched and cheered.Quote

I think this is fascinating; i'm available if they need a frugger btw.
anyway, if this was a Charlie Watts Dance Spectacular, well, that would be the ticket for hops. you see that ace boogie woogie? you seen that ace shake his keister really fast like a stripper, man? I had to listen to Gillian Welch Elvis Presley Blues over and over and over after seeing that. like a midnight rambler baby like a harlem queen oh that charlies got it, alright.
mick has to take lessons like a girl. charlie shakes it down;
he'd give the King heart attack if He ever saw it.
The King should have coverd more stones songs btw.
He only covered none.
haha imagine the colonel telling mick that elvis would own half the publishing forever if they cut something.
lol, mick would have just been drooling stunned, like sure man that's gonna happen; as soon as i get back to france i'll giv a jingle mate...
yeh Charles.
i'm pretty interested in this. I'd like what inspires her choreography with
rock and roll when so classically trained and gifted. It could be pretty exciting. I'd seen Alvin Ailey in residence around the time of the '69 tour, with a part time job at the Academy of Music in Brooklyn while going to school...and it was fascinating to experience a cutting edge contemporary troupe with classial chops. It wasn't the kind of art I'd been exposed to growing up; and always thought it very starch and arch, and proper, which it is I guess; it's a higly technical area of operations and effort; and an athletic one. I'ts great he's found someone he can encourage and promote and enjoy while the baby is growing up.
I think it's real exciting that this is happening. Hoping for the best
as far as something I'd love...but it's a no-lose sitch; it's a grand and good thing to express music this way; i find it fascinating. and it's true with me, that old cliche, as i get older i do take time to appreciate lassical musics more and more; and find myself going back to Rockman period jump blues and boogies from the earliest fifties and then back from there....
it's a grand thing these American musics...
i was listening to Frankie Miller jam with Rory Gallagher at an old
concert they had in Germany; playing American music.
and i glowed for a moment about the great stylistic merges in our musics and cultures and art forms; obviously with Dance program inspired by Stones music...I'm not sure if Frankie is UK or Scottish; Rory was a great Irishman; and here they are playing to exuberant rockin' Germans; and it's Chuck stuff from the mid south of America with such deep roots.. one of those moemnts when you felt really good about loving the music we love...
.... and really, really tough-hearted, soulful and rolling; and it just felt so good.
i wanna see creative dancers in this medium really 'take off' on the rock rhythms and jump rhythms; i'm hoping for the best but trying not to lead with expectations; i'm not knowing enough about any of this Art form, except what personally seems to move and fascinate me; I don't expect modern dance or presentation of this style and that like that kind of revue.
it will be interesting to see her thematic directions; and I'll treat this as if she's a poet or something; and leave myself totally open for it;
i think it's charming just that it's happening.
a LOT DOES about the history of popular dance; and body language in general actually. Mick's an ace. he hung with the best mimes and ballet dancers while stll so young himself. good news!
I still think the world owes the Ike and Tina Turner Revue an Eternal vote of thanks for that explosive energy erupting in your face like that.
i think we ALL missed out on the roaring 20's. well here we go again, let's boogie down.
