Opera anyone?

I’m always intrigued by the world around me. Here's a new intrigue for me - Opera.

I’ve never really thought I liked it, but I realized I’ve never really tried it. I don’t want to be like the guy in Green Eggs and Ham, ya know?

Maybe it's just the death of Luciano Pavarotti that got me thinking more about it. I just found out opera season starts soon. I think I'm going to drag Debi to an Opera. Anyone else game?

The good news is that they have cheap seats (as cheap as $15). So, maybe I'll be in the nose-bleed section behind a column. Who cares? It will give me a chance to check it out without paying a bundle.

Below is a list of upcoming Opera Carolina performances. I haven't decided which one I want to try first. Anyone have any thoughts or recommendations?
