Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for May 27, 2023

ugh … the poor neighbors…

Hey, as long as their house is soundproofed, whatever floats their boat! Although I have heard that they’re booked into Carnegie Hall in September….

The sound proof window glass company made a killing on that block. We can hear Beth hit high “C” way over here. I can imaging the cats going nuts over there

They were trying to get a fathom of the opera.

Spike tries his best to ignore their dope opera.

…..which, of couse, always results in a devisive end.

This is just the foreplay … the real action comes later.

Beth Ann can really clear an aria.

Reminiscent of a Seinfeld episode

Oh the horrors,! Oh the cacophony.!

It’s one way to pass the evening.

I’d go see that!

Meh, it’s mostly variations of the JG Wentworth, commercials.

Will Julius Caesar? Will Beth Ann belt… out another verse?

Stay Tooned!

This works well on Halloween. My wife and I were singing karaoke one Halloween and the kids quit coming and the dog ran and hid.

I call dibs on Beth Ann if Julius passes.

Actually, this sounds rather fun. Especially for Ballard Street.

Looks more reminiscent of a 1940’s radio broadcast

Good morning Balladeers!

Seems more like the setup for a radio broadcast. Why would they need microphones?

Seems like a lot of fuss, just so you can have a gin and tonic after the show.

Luckily, they both enjoy their fully furnished bomb-shelter-studio.

They’ve been doing this for tenor eleven years, and it’s mezzo much to them.

Does Beth Ann know that Julius’ part of the script involves that dagger? Uh-oh.

They sing alto-gether each night.
