"Flamingo ballet"

Delaney and I attended a Flamenco dance performance last night at the local Philharmonic concert hall.  When I saw the posters up a few weeks ago, I thought it would be a fun thing to do together.  David and Adam had no interest, so Delaney and went together and really enjoyed it.  Delaney kept calling it "flamingo ballet" before we went - ha!

There was a music ensemble and two dancers.  The ensemble included a spanish guitar player who was excellent, a drummer, and two percussionists whose hands were miked for their clapping and other percussive sounds.  The man and woman danced several solos, then wrapped up with a joint number.  Their footwork was absolutely amazing.  The one down side was that we thought we had balcony seats, but ended up on the next to back row at ground level.  Some genius decided to add a few extra folding chairs at the end of each row, which stood at least 6-8" higher than the regular seats (where we were seated). (The fire marshall would have had a fit.)  Delaney had a hard time seeing, but finally managed to lean far forward to see between two other heads.
