Vienna

[Bilbo]

So long as I am daydreaming about celebrating New Years at the Vienese symphony, are there any good visuals on men I could daydream about being beside me? (My lover wouldn't even go to the symphony with me here, let alone over there. I took him to his first symphony concert and got ambushed by Bruckner and now he won't go back, claiming to only like shows with plots.)

Better get your ticket order in ASAP, Bilbo. New Year's Eve concerts sell out fast. The Statsoper often stages "Der Rosenkavalier" for the occasion, an opera of such lushness that even the BF might love it. As for snaps, look at Johannes in the "Excorts Outside USA" section. Not a great picture, but he is a very sexy and accommodating guy. He is studying to be a vet, so he understands our animal natures...knows how to make you purr and/or growl.

Bilbo,

 

Try this link, get a free admittance to their X-rated pics and then check the escorts for Austria.

 

There used to be another escort agency on the next but I cannot find it now - but it was a pay per view anyway. This is better and more up-to-date.

 

Enjoy.

The other site is boys-men.com. I hired Johannes (reviewed here by someone else) when I was in Salzburg. Very hot. There's a pic of him here. To see the pics on the site, you have to pay.

 

Later.

Thanks, you guys. Looks right now like I'll be spending this Holiday season right here in Houston doing "Annie" but Colonel Radetsky's March always echoes through my heart around that time. But if anyone has any more ideas, please don't let the fact that I probably won't be there for at least another year keep you from sharing them with us all!

Annie? Good grief! I thought the offers I get every year for the Nutcracker were bad but Annie trumps the Nutcracker that's for sure. A white Christmas is one thing, but saccharine and sugar- coated is another. Good luck!

RE: Nutcracker

 

While walking through the lobby of the Opera House in San Francisco during the intermission of a matinee performance of Nutcracker, I heard one surburban mom say to another: "Well, the costumes are perfectly lovely BUT the music is the same as last year!"

[Bilbo]

Don't dance, only move well enough to fake it in certain productions, so have never Nutcrakered except in the audience. (Believe it or not, my lover has never seen it and we hope to get him to it this year.) But this would be my third Annie.

RE: Cracked Nuts

 

Don't think I can ever sit through another traditional production Nutcracker. BUT I do love the Mark Morris version called The Hard Nut. In an oddly respectful way, he turns the old chestnut inside out and looks at it freshly. He even makes you realize how brilliant the music is. My ears usually shut down at the first few notes.

RE: Cracked Nuts

 

Sounds like a lot of fun. Every year at the end of the run of the normal one, the Houston Ballet does one performance of The Nutty Nutcracker, making fun of everything they've had to do so many times.
