We didn't know it at the time, but that reflective dish outside the Museum of Contemporary Art is part of Anish Kapoor's new exhibition. Sky Mirror required optics specialists to make sure that the general public weren't blinded.
I have never seen so many adults wearing Dr Who t-shirts.

| But it wasn't jsut tshirts they were wearing! |
 |
| The Cybermen were a really freaky presence even though you knew they weren't really cybermen... |
 |
| Mr Wicker was very pleased to be in the presence of Alex Kingston |
 |
| The Daleks had to invade! |
 |
| One of my favourite parts |
 |
| The Silence were spooky too I hadn't noticed their creepy 4 fingered hands before |
Saturday Snapshot, is a wonderful weekly meme from Alyce at home with books
How fun! I bet your son had a great time and something he'll remember for years. I went to a Dr. Who Convention ages ago, back when everyone was wearing the long Tom Baker scarves. It was quite an experience.
ReplyDeleteSo much fun :-) We had friends who were there last week too - they're still raving about it :-)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Louise
My hubby is 71 and is still a Dr. Who fan and still has a Dr. Who T-shirt. Your son has many years ahead of him to enjoy this phenomenon. Glad you had such a good time!
ReplyDeleteBear With Me...any gathering of like minded folk is always fun♫ HappyMerryChristmasHoliday♥
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so jealous! Should I admit to how much Doctor Who paraphernalia we have in our house? :) We would love to go to one of those concerts someday. We're eagerly awaiting this year's Christmas special with the new companion.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter loves Dr. Who too. We have parking garage barriers that look like the daleks. No one around here looks like Silence though. Fun times. Here's Mine
ReplyDeleteMy sons would have loved the concert as well! Glad you enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteMine is here.
I was a Doctor Who fan back in the day and only recently picked up the modern ones. This would be a fun show!

I am probably the only person who has no clue who "DR. Who" is :)
ReplyDeleteI hear people talking about Dr. Who all the time but I don't really know who he is either. Sounds like you had fun, though!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could get into Dr. Who! I've seen a few episodes on BBC America but I'm not sure which Dr. Who came first. I guess I need a Dr. Who primer. I love the BBC America channel,btw, I've been watching the Hour on it. And of course Chef Gordon Ramsay.
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, thanks to your pictures it's clear that the concert was very very special.
I had heard of Dr.Who before but never got curious about him! Recently, at a recital at my son's music school, one amazingly talented kid (my son is talented too, but am not talking about him here!) played 'I am the Doctor' from Dr.Who and we were hooked, on the music..and we have been listening to this particular one many times now.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your son. My son is a relatively recent Dr. Who convert. (In fact my husband is watching an episode with him right now.) The symphony looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, my dad and his wife saw it opening night. They adored it
ReplyDeleteI know absolutely nothing about Dr. Who. Isn't that odd? Especially from a person who was a Star Trek geek from the day the show aired.
