You missed my wife who prefers standing room goes often and just likes opera

The Smart Set: The Sopranos - July 12, 2011: "In The Opera Fanatic: Ethnography of an Obsession, Claudio E. Benzecry identifies four distinct types of the obsessed attendee: There’s the hero, who believes he is keeping the opera house open ... . There’s the addict, who is willing to sacrifice his families, friends, lovers, money, and sanity to attend multiple performances of the same opera ... . There’s the nostalgic, for whom everything was better when it was sung by Maria Callas ... . Then there’s the pilgrim, the devoted subject who treats the opera house as a religious temple." It's all in the headline.
