Il Divo Concert at Pengrowth Saddledome in Calgary

Opera singers Urs Toni Buhler, Carlos Marin, Sebastien Izambard and David Miller of 'Il Divo' were in town for a concert and I WAS THERE! They are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
Kerry (Daddy) was taking care of our little one tonight. Leo is pretty good as he goes to bed at 8Pm every night. The night was cold and snowy. It was a wet cold snow and I was getting pretty cold waiting for the train to arrive. It was a 30 minutes trip to the station. I arrived at the Pengrowth Saddledome around 7.15 pm (an hour before show is suppose to start), Elvira and Liliana were already there waiting for me at the train platform. The place was packed! Lots of middle aged woman and a few couples! We settled down to our seats (uh...quite a distance from the stage, ha ha ha...) and waited for the concert to begin. It was 8.30 and we were still waiting. I was wondering what was happening behind the stage and why we had to wait for soooo long. It was almost 9 p.m., when the lights dimmed, signalling the start of the concert. The audience gasped in excitement and the show began. It was beautiful and sooo romantic! A wonderful treat.
