@y2000k I haven't been to the movies in a while either but it cost more than that the last time I went. What theater were you at?

@n1vux @jack_bundschuh @AmtrakNECAlerts Ricker! You stuck on train 172 too? (met you through Federal Wines and maybe Julio's too)

Train 172 is currently operating approximately 3 hours late due to police activity east of New York (NYP).

@KAnthonyAppiah @Amtrak I think your long delays were due to this accident: newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/12/05/at-…

@Amtrak I’m on a train to Boston that has so far taken four hours to get from New York Penn Station to New Rochelle. The whole trip is now projected to take eight hours. Why do little proper investment in our infrastructure?

@ericbreese @Amtrak @TimmyShea @AmtrakNECAlerts I'm assuming 172 is moving by now. I think your delays are related to this accident: newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/12/05/at-…

Train 172 is stopped outside of New York (NYP) due to police activity. We will update as more information becomes available.

@alex There was a fatal accident causing all the delays. newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/12/05/at-…

Now nearly two hours wasted failing to leave NYC on the train that is without power.

My Amtrak train lost overhead power and is now stuck on the tracks. What

@LoniNolan2 @AmtrakNECAlerts no...there was an accident. newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/12/05/at-…

@AmtrakNECAlerts Did someone throw themselves on the track again

@LiesaHealy @BostonNewsMan @boston25 @Amtrak newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/12/05/at-…

@BostonNewsMan @boston25 @Amtrak What was the incident?

Delays starting to mount here in Boston following an incident in NYC Affecting ⁦@Amtrak⁩ trains along the northeast corridor. #Boston25

@thenatali3 @AmtrakNECAlerts Also, in case they hadn't notified passengers, delays are due to an explosion: newyork.cbslocal.com/2019/12/05/at-…

@AmtrakNECAlerts the train’s sold out of stella, bud light, and even tito’s and we’re still in NY state...

@thenatali3 @AmtrakNECAlerts @thenatali3 Is train #172 actually moving now?

@y2000k I thought the point of the name BB&B was to say they specialized in just those composers too. I think the same of H&H.

"Whenever I meet people for the first time, I get them to talk for ten minutes. Then I size them up from the exact opposite perspective of all they've told me. Do you think that's crazy?" — the girl with the amazing ears in Haruki Murakami's novel, A Wild Sheep Chase

@MahanEsfahani @imanimosley Side topic: There's a YouTube vid of a young rapper listening to Frank Sinatra for the 1st time & really digging it. I think folks shared it b/c it was nice to see a youngun' being open-minded to older songs. I wonder how many of us could listen to rap with similarly open ears.

@DirtyPaloma I think making a recording allows you to preserve an idealized version of the opera since you can go back and fix spots as needed. But it's so expensive that I wonder if it's worth it if you're working with a limited budget. Might be better off hiring a team of videographers.

A board member asked this question and I’m still formulating the best answer I can possibly give. Now I’m curious of what you all think? Why make an album of a new opera (for thousands of dollars) if the financial return & audience is much smaller than other forms of music?

This night at the opera has carnival games, food trucks, and aerial silks to go along with the usual operatic passion and jealousy! #PAGBLO #pagliacci blo.org/pagliacci/

Yeah...I don't think he was supposed to see that. #PAGBLO #Pagliacci blo.org/pagliacci/ @BostLyricOpera @Thedopesoprano

In the BLO's Pagliacci, there are singers scattered all throughout the audience and when you're seated right next to them -- Whoa, that's loud! #yesIheardYou #PAGBLO #pagliacci @BostLyricOpera blo.org/pagliacci/

Last night's final dress rehearsal for Pagliacci with Boston Lyric Opera! They turned an ice skating rink into a traveling circus with carnival games, aerial silks, and clowns! #PAGBLO #pagliacci @BostLyricOpera
