How I discovered Michael...

May 17, 2000

By Jo Ann Higgins (Maine, USA)

I was on the way home with friends from our annual shop-till-we-drop trip to Boston one November (revenge for our husbands going to deer hunting camp).  We were actually shopping our way home and were checking out the outlet stores in Kittery, Maine.  One of the girls, or Bag Ladies as I refer to us, wanted to check out the Magnavox outlet and while she was perusing
radios I was wondering the store.  A "Phantom of the Opera" video was playing Music of the Night on the TVs. It turned out to be a collection of Andrew Lloyd Weber music videos being shown on a shopping network so I wrote down the ordering information.  Michael sings two of the songs including Love Changes Everything.  That's when I first saw him.  I didn't really notice
him until the Les Miz concert video and then went back to appreciate him more fully on the Webber video. Since then I have also gotten the A L W Birthday video and I keep making people watch Gethsemane).

I got to go to Ireland, Wales, Scotland, and England last summer and hoped I would be there when he was on tour but I was too early.  I planned to buy Michael cd's while in London but we were only there on a Sunday (4th of July) and by the time we had free time the stores were closed. Since coming home I got the concert CD and video.  Thank goodness for Discount
Music!

I really hope we can get Michael to sing in the States really soon!!!
