Rock of Ages

I'm sure there's more serious theatre we could have attended, but a few days into this full throttle, low sleep event needed a simple recipe - and Rock of Ages was the call.  Who can't tap their feet to an 80's music musical?  It's always fun to see live talent, and talent is plentiful here.  Yes, I have no problems admitting I like musicals, if they're that fun.  The (scant) costuming was, uhhh, a nice touch too.  They gave out little LED light fake lighters to help the concert effect.  Plus reading the playbill is like nothing else... who but a broadway musical actor can put "have seen Bon Jovi 9x, Twisted Sister 3x, Night Ranger 2x, Quiet Riot 2x and Poison 3x" or "... would like to thank those three stoners in high school who threw his Trapper Keeper in the urinal for introducing him to Guns N' Roses."
