That this might be an operatic version of “Sausage Party.”

Some music snobs look down on Andre Rieu but he makes classical music accessible and the audiences at his shows are always havin a great time. I’d love to see him and his orchestra live.

“”I’d love to see him and his orchestra live.””

We saw him at Universal Studio years ago and it was superb. Had seats close to the front. Sat next to a lady who said she sees every performance of the orchestra when they’re in the states... He came here to Gwinnett County, GA after we had moved here but I decided it hadn’t been that long since we’d seen him and didn’t feel comfortable spending the $$$ again so soon. I can live with seeing him once...

I caught a few seconds of his show last night.
I thought he was over-the-top 10 years ago...but now, it's painful.

"Old music" is still around on the classical music stations. It's played in the cities that have symphony orchestras.
The world doesn't need Mr. Rieu for that. He's already 67 and after he retires, which I hope is a long time from now, classical music, the waltz, for example, will STILL be alive and well.

BOY, did he sport a set of whiskers or what.
