Il Divo  -  the cd that I still have left.... 
Life becomes harder for us when we live for others, but it also becomes richer and happier. Friendship is a sheltering tree.

To be clever enough to get a great deal of money, one must be stupid enough to want it.

Those who bring sunshine to the lives of other cannot keep it from themselves.

Gregg, there's 3 "farm theaters" here in Kuilsrivier - small venues for a night of wine, dine and music.  I heard that Nianell is coming in the next month or two, but the regulars are not very happy - the usual price has been increased from the usual R140-160, to OVER R400 a ticket.  Pity, for it used to be excellent evenings in the "Hoenderhok" and "Plaasteater".  rooster  notfair

Hi Bertie

I love the woman's music BUT R400 a ticket!?!! That's absolutely crazy! I would never pay that much to see any singer or musician or show! Makes one wonder......

Yes Gregg I also LOVE her music.  And it's really sad.  Ok, I know the theater only seats about 60-80 people so to make it worth it they do have to ask a bit higher, but then again, those shows are never longer than an hour!  In fact, one of my patients doesn't miss any shows there, and she actually mentioned a price of R445 for this show and will also miss out on this one..  Now I wonder whose decision it was to ask so much ---- the venue,.. or the artist...?

To come back to the topic before we get wrapped on the knuckles...

Hi Bertie,

Adding my 2c worth about Nianell at Langverwagt; it would probably be the artist asking as unless she's doing an a capella concert with just the piano, it's quite a costly exercise to sort out acoustics, backline, etc, etc.  Also, she's now got a bit of an  international following so she can start to charge premium prices.  Pity for the average bunch like us though - she's damn good.
