So I can't prove that I met Anna Netrebko nor that Erwin Schrott kissed me on both cheeks. Donna Anna was in a rush, perhaps thinking she was late, then her swipecard wouldn't open the door into the Royal Opera House.
Erwin greeted me with "Everyone's here!"
I shall see the opera on Tuesday, and again in July. This evening, though, I was kissed by Don Giovanni himself.
Jimmy's comment on La Netrebko "To look at she isn't all that. She's too thin." I don't think that Jimmy will ever be a diva-worshipper! He left for the pub just moments before Erwin arrived.
