Checkmate.

For Christmas, I got a DVD of Chess: Live in Concert.

It had Josh Groban, so the music was bound to be good, and Idina Menzel, so I was bound to love it anyway.

So it's kind of like a rock opera*, but concert version so there's not much of a set, just people on stage with microphones and an orchestra. There is a plotline, and it involves...chess. And Communism. And love. And Adam Pascal. What's not to like?

*I'm not exactly sure what that means, but it seems appropriate.

If by some odd twist of fate someone is reading this blog, I have an assignment. Go on Youtube and watch A Very Potter Musical. I know I say this about everything, but it's kind of the best thing ever. Malfoy is a girl, Dumbledore is gay, Voldemort is hot, Cho Chang is white, Goyle rules, and there is one boss Zefron poster. Sounds good? That's because it is.
