Entertainment better than expected
R. fancied seeing Wicked (2024) and we get £5-each tickets at Odeon for having sold our souls to Jeff Bezos so off we went into last night's wind and rain. I didn't know what to expect: I don't have much memory of the original story, perhaps some memory of Tin Man (2007) which hardly hewed closely, and I am not much up on modern musicals. It turned out to be better than I expected: I found myself engaged and I thought that the green lady sang very well. Given what I know or guess of what constrains the plot of the followup, I am curious to see where it goes.
Listening to Radio Scotland tonight, they did well for me in choosing songs from big albums from 1984, then followed up with a show which seemed to threaten folk songs in Gaelic. Giving it a chance, I've been surprised to find that I mostly like the music, at least as background. (Typically, British and Irish folk I'd avoid even more than I would country music.)
