    I notice how people dress in a nice casual clothing at the performance that you show. I always wear a coat and tie at such occasions and it's nearly always a very nice suit. I think I've only worn a sport coat with tie once and a dark blue blazer with tie on about two occasions. Once, while in Seattle, my wife and I went to one of the four Ring operas. I wore my best suite while my wife wore a vibrant blue sequined dress with a silver sequined clutch purse and her pearl jewelry. I swear, every male attendee there turned their heads to get a glimpse of her. We were in our 40s. Maybe it's because when I was a tot, my father would always put on one of his two best suits when he attended the live theater. Maybe it's a recollection of that that makes me want to dress up to go to any of the live arts. I miss the old days.
    We've only been to two ballets, one was performed by the Bolshoi and the other was a performance of the Nutcracker, which I wasn't that crazy about but my wife loved. Both events were here in Portland.
    I've been to a lot of symphonies but not lately. Would love to see another good one since I got my two nice suits which I picked up Wednesday so now I have four. I used to have more because I wore them to work at Boeing. Office workers at Boeing always overdress.
    Do the clothes make the man or does the man make the clothes? I dunno, but I know that I am a little more polite when I dress up and I like being polite.

    Same here. I saw Jan & Dean in 1979 with a cousin of mine. The first concert that I ever went to.
