Savoy Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 Hi gang, I asked this question on another board some time ago. Here it is ... I'm always hearing about "The opera singer without an opera." Is this a real person? If so, who is it, and why are they called this? Thanks. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 No clue, but if during the search anyone stumbles on an opera without any opera singers -- I'd probably be up for some of that. Quote

7/4 Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 (edited) I saw 360 degrees of Opera and that was way too much for one lifetime. Edited January 27, 2006 by 7/4 Quote
JSngry Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 Hell, I saw 360 Degrees of Oprah, and that was too. Quote
7/4 Posted January 27, 2006 Report Posted January 27, 2006 This is getting ugly... I mean...hey...the Opera is bad enough. Quote
