Sing Along Sound of Music

Ashley, Kayla, every child in L.A., every gay man in L.A. and I went to Hollywood Bowl last night for the sold out showing of the Sing Along Sound of Music! Ashley had never seen the Sound of Music (which made the costume contest beforehand quite confusing) and I don't think Kayla knew what she had agreed to come to, but by the end of the night they were belting out the songs with the rest of us... my favorite part of the show was during 'Edelweiss' when everyone pulled out their cellphones and held them up like lighters at a concert, except it was cooler than lighters because of all the different colors! Ashley had downloaded an image of a bic lighter onto her iphone which you can see right at the beginning of the video:
During the costume contest/parade before the show they had the original Liesl von Trapp come up on stage (she is the girl who is 'sixteen, going on seventeen')... only in Hollywood.
