There is no reason i know of that you can't have taken photos of the orchestra. I think you should post them to wikipedia and this page in particular:

Ross pretty much had it down in his review. I was photo-documenting the whole thing for those of you affeared of traveling SOBA after dark and after I'd taken about ... six photos a woman in a yellow "Philadelphia Orchestra" t-shirt came over to me and told me that "photographs of the orchestra cannot appear on a website" (I kid you not) -- which I took for a moment to be some sort of vampire thing -- like, they just wouldn't show up on film so I was wasting my time pressing the shutter button, but then I realized she meant that she was telling me I wasn't _allowed_ to show anybody photographs of the orchestra -- which surprised me, it being a public event, outdoors, to which the media had been invited. But, nonetheless, I have adhered to her request as best I can. And now provide the weak and infirm on this list the virtual Orchestra in Clark Park experience: The crowd pretty much filled the bowl. We could have ended west philly gentrification in one fell swoop by opening up a few cans of mustard gas down there. There were so many fancy folding chairs and enviornmentally sound biodegradable snack-food wrappers being thoughtfully packed out in trendy picnic baskets made of recycled soda bottles I thought Dennis Kucinich was going to show up handing out vegan hot dogs: http://www.kylecassidy.com/temp/orchestra1.jpg The view to the stage: http://www.kylecassidy.com/temp/orchestra2.jpg The conductor, who may or may not be Rossen Milanov, worked it for all he was worth: http://www.kylecassidy.com/temp/orchestra3.jpg And attracted some auxiliary conductors who had more energy and an amazing attention span: http://www.kylecassidy.com/temp/orchestra4.jpg Much of the performance was more of a "Symphony for Orchestra, Crying Babies, and Drum Circle." One highlight of the evening was when the general din was agumented by a helecopter circling overhead during Bolero. I thought it was news people, but upon closer inspection it turned out to be philly PD snipers taking out a couple of off-leash dogs: http://www.kylecassidy.com/temp/orchestra5.jpg There you have it. Just like you were there. Hopefully shakespeare's estate will allow photography during Romeo and Juliet when it plays in the park. kc ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
