So I found myself reminded of being 'trained' from SDCC's late night train that runs downtown

We encountered this train 3 times in our ride yesterday.

sdconventionctr Events are returning to San Diego! 🌞🌴 The first group scheduled to meet here when we reopen for events this August is @Spiephotonics—a group that has been meeting at the San Diego Convention Center for 30 years! We’re excited to welcome back these leaders in light-based science and technologies as we return to our primary role as an economic driver for our region.

My wife has been going to the Convention Center a few times to assist with the education of the children there, and she's talked about how odd it is to not see convention stuff there and to see it used for such a formal occasion (with guards and military personnel and whatnot)!  While I'm glad our city is helping care for children, I'll be glad when the convention center is back to hosting conventions again!  I've probably paid MORE attention to what's going on there the last 12 months than any other time/span since living in San Diego!  :P

I've been in the Hollywood Bowl ticket purchase queue for 27 minutes and I'm currently 381st in line. Is it weird that I missed this?  ;) :D

Ha!
The world is healing itself... :P

Also, which concert are you going for?!  I'm itching to get back into the world this summer but there's nothing at the Hollywood Bowl or my local Symphony schedule-wise that feels "Must-See."  I'm kinda tempted to see John Williams, but I've seen him a few times and nowadays I see he doesn't even conduct the full night anymore (probably Newman conducting general stuff while Williams conducts his music?).

You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login We like the films-in-concert where they show the movie and the LA Phil plays the score live. We've seen all the Harry Potters so far that way so we're excited that the pandemic didn't break our streak! I'm also looking at Black Panther in Concert and The Princess Bride in Concert because I love both of those films.

I went to the John Williams night a couple of years ago. It was good, of course, and it's fun when people wave lightsabers during the Star Wars themes, but it's not something I feel I need to go to every time it comes up.

I bet the BLACK PANTHER event will be a good one: there is some outstanding music score in that film (of course, as a percussionist I'm biased a bit as there is some off-the-hook great African percussion stuff throughout the score).
I was thinking about doing the PRINCESS BRIDE event too...#DecisionsDecisions... :P

I love the Hollywood Bowl, such an awesome place for concerts. A few years ago I went for Danny Elfman and the original voices of Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas, it was magical.

I decided not to get a package so I don't have tickets yet. Individual tickets go onsale this Tuesday 6/1.

You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login Why do you say it will be a different place this year? They have less events on the schedule but it looks like it should be largely business as usual once they do start. They're going full capacity and their policies on masks/eating/drinking will probably evolve as California opens up. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
