In Reply to: One of my favorite parts of retirement is... posted by E-Stat on April 6, 2025 at 07:52:06:
Hah! I swear I had those same seats long ago when I was on a business trip that got delayed over a weekend. I stayed at the Chicago Hilton (formerly Towers) down the street and heard Gil Shaham (?) play the Sibelius VC, Boulez conducting. (I said it was long ago!) He conducted one of his compositions as well, no comment on that.My colleagues went to the American Girl store. I think I got the better end of the deal. I remember the day, I was supposed to return home to pick up my future wife's engagement ring that weekend.
I too have been there many a times on my wife's firms dime. The Drake was LOTS of dimes.
ETA: Thanks so much for the memories.
