Well,

*knowing the dif between EAST & WEST is important;

*if you choose wisely, your hotel will supply complimentary

afternoon wine/coffee in the morning;

& on the day of his performance, the Wall Street Journal

featured an article about MIKA,

*taxi drivers, with few exceptions, drive like lunatics, BUT

ALL folks on street asked for directions, with no exceptions,

could not be more friendly & helpful;

*the restaurant at the MET is surprisingly good, but pricey

& the MET really wants you to LEAVE quickly when the

performance is over;

*it's a pretty long, but interesting, walk from 70 Park Avenue

to the Lincoln Center

& one can find facial glitter in a drug store easily . . .
