Battlestar Saturday at Grand Performances
Music inspired by the Toaster at Grand Performances
I had initial plans to participate in Silver Lake’s Dyke March on Saturday night, but darned it, something else might pull me away — Battlestar Galactica. Specifically, Grand Performances’ presentation of the music from Battlestar Galactica, led by BSG composer Bear McCreary. This is almost as nerdy as it actually is.
The show kicks of Grand Performances’ Summer Series of outdoor, global music and performances downtown at California Plaza. If you haven’t jumped on the Battlestar wagon yet – or refuse to – fine but you are missing out – spend the nice summer night at any one of Grand Performances’ other Saturday shows scheduled between June 13th and August 29th. The full schedule and details are on the official website here.

I’ve been to two of these live shows and they are FANTASTIC! The plan is to head straight over to this from the Hot Dog Death March! So say we all?
Will be there. Is there a dress code? And are camera’s allowed?
I doubt there’s a dress code as it’s outdoors. Also, Bear McCreary is asking for people to take photos and video to send to him: http://www.bearmccreary.com/blog/?p=2066
Thanks for the heads up Jodi!
