Grammy Nominations Concert, Nokia Theatre, Los Angeles, November 30, 2011

While in Southern California on vacation, Donna and I attended the Grammy Nominations Concert on Nov 30, 2011 at the Nokia Theatre in the L.A. Live section of downtown Los Angeles. The show was broadcast live on CBS. Casually dressed, there we were in the audience with the women in short cocktail dresses and super high heels, and the overly made up, botoxed men. Professional cameras weren't allowed, but small point-and-shoots were welcome. I did the best I could from about the 35th row. We stopped at the Grammy Museum first.
