Happy New Month!

11-1-2008

Dad and I started our day with a stop at Marylebone station where the Beatles filmed parts of
A Hard Days Night.
As we continued walking, we unexpectedly ran into the Church Street market. Along with cheap fashion accessories, this market carried everything for daily living, from toiletries to food. I picked up a light jacket for £1. Pretty sweet deals at this market all around, even better than Primark.


We got in a walk across Abbey Road and some pictures of the wall.




From there we made our way to the Dominion Theatre. We were a touch too early to head in so we grabbed a couple pints of London's Pride Ale at The Jack Horner pub.






After those beers, we were ready to see We Will Rock You, a musical based on the music of Queen. Like the Zorro show from last night, I was skeptical about this one. However, here my instincts served me well. It was more spectacle than musical, yet it was innovative in it's half stage set, half digital projection screens. But definitely an entertaining afternoon.


We closed out our evening with a jazz trio that was playing at the Bountiful Cow, a little venue with a great atmosphere of old obscure movie posters and sound proofing cut in angled patterns around the room.
