“Wipe off that Angel Face, and go back to high school…”
Those were the immortal words that Frankie Avalon sang more than thirty years ago in the movie, Grease.
Last night the tradition was continued by Taylor Hicks, the silver tongued, (and haired) champ from American Idol’s season five.
It brought the memories flooding back!
The first time I saw the musical Grease just days before starting highschool.
I’d seen the movie, but seeing the characters live and in person left a huge impression on me.
I remember wondering it I’d be cool enough to be a member of the “Pink Ladies” and sang “Teen Angel” for weeks.
As chance would have it, Grease was at the Fox Theater this week, as I prepare to head back to my high reunion.
Love it!
Great show, really got me in the mood for some school spirit.
Grease is the word!
