Just your typical summer afternoon in Central Park—and I always wonder why all these people aren't at work or school. This was the site of this 1981 event, among others—not all in great weather.
I would SO have liked to watch Simon and Garfunkel there instead of at the hippodrome de Longchamp en 1982 ! Que de bons souvenirs !! And now, thank to you, I can imagine my concert there. Glad you decided to play TG's part !
Marylene--I have to stop making TG do my job pour moi, n'est-ce pas? So, you saw them at Longchamp in '82? Brava! Must admit that I was at neither of these concerts (had both a toddler and a nursing infant at the time (et pas de regrets!).
A classic concert in such a setting would be pretty memorable. And what a lovely place to play hooky, not that I ever did anything like that. {Well, certainly not in Central Park ... but not in any other location either.}
TG! What? Good riddance? Heaven forfend, man! We all know there are still more and better and funnier links out there even when I overcome my inertia long enough to add one or two myself. I assume you're kidding, but even so . . . you're the "prez," remember?

ReplyDeleteCentral Park always amazes me, this beautiful space in the city!
ReplyDeleteEvery time I've been there, I wonder the same thing. Maybe they all work at night?
ReplyDeleteWhat is this "TG" thing of which you speak?
ReplyDeleteIf it takes a lack of same to create such a marvelous post then good riddance, n'est-ce pas? .
I wish I could have been one of them: playing hooky from work and enjoying a day out of doors for a change.
ReplyDeleteLOL, TG!
