"Sound of Music" singalong at the Hollywood Bowl 6-26-15

Are you looking for awe-pproval with an awesome outfit or awe-ppropriate dinner setting?

This Friday, June 26th, nearly 18,000 attendees of the annual “Sound of Music” sing-a-long concert will be also celebrating the 50th anniversary of the release of the movie. Anyone who has attended this event, normally in September, knows the evening does not start once the sun has said a long goooood-bye. The ever impressive presentation of non-professional, local participants, with hand-made costumes related to the story and refrains of familiar music, begins at 6:30pm. This pre-dusk, on-stage, narrated, parade brings out the most creative, cutest, and outstanding costumes; all to the delight of a multi-cultural and multi-generational audience. Without fail, there is always a costume or group costume with such ingenuity it causes a gasp of awe-pproval and a roar of awe-pplause from the sold-out crowd.

If you have not decided what to wear or you are bringing your own dinner, might we suggest popping in to “Best of Times” Antique Store in Burbank. Their selection of vintage linens, crystal, china, hats, blankets, and clothing circa 1930’s are sure to complete your preparations for going to the event tonight, or staging your own sing-a-long at home.

Here are a couple of pictures depicting the awesome and awe-ppropiate selection of vintage and collectibles.
