Being that my boys are theater freaks, I try to stay on top of all the shows that are coming to the Richmond area. I received an email tonight that Rock of Ages is coming to the Carpenter Center. Is it wrong that I am absolutely dying to see this show? I've seen the movie about a gazillion times.... and truly, I don't think I've seen Tom Cruise look better. After a string of really crappy movies, Tommy Boy knocks this one out of the park.
I've officially become a Rock of Ages groupie!!! Every time it's on, I have to stop & watch - like a train wreck, but with great 80's tunes!!
Maybe is the soundtrack - this was my era. I am a child of the 80's.
Maybe it's the tattoos - Tom Cruise is covered in them.... and that's not a bad thing.
Maybe it's just the cheese factor - every now and then, ya just got to say WTF?!?!? and go with it!!!
Whatever the case may be, I am completely stoked that I have my tickets for the June 9th showing at the Carpenter Center!! And the seats are great!!!! Orchestra Right - row C - seats 10 & 12. I'll be about 8 rows from the stage. Thank you, richmondcenterstage.com!!!! You've made this 80's chick very, very happy!!! Wonder if I'll need to revive my neon t-shirt, pencil skirt, and lace midriff cover??? What's your guilty pleasure??
