While in Portland OR. for the Joyce Meyer Conference, I had Saturday night free so I attended the Broadway production of "Rock of Ages". A musical set in Los Angeles in the mid 80s that featured a lot of songs from the era. It's a rock 'n roll, love story of sorts! The live production, unlike the movie of the same name, had actors with great vocal skills able to add power to songs. Music numbers included, "Waiting for a Girl Like You," "I Want to Know What Love Is," "Don't Stop Believin'" and Jon Bovi's "Wanted Dead or Alive". The play was done well, but somehow I missed the 80s musically, so I only endured the show. The target audience, 40 somethings, loved it and showed their appreciation through out the performance. It was set in the Keller Auditorium in downtown Portland, a newer theater than the ones you find in Columbus or Cleveland.
