THE ROCKETTES! Are there things you just never get tired of?

You know how you can watch a movie or hear a song that you've heard ever since you can remember and when you hear it again, you think "How could I have liked that so much?"

I just saw the rockettes on Christmas in Rockafeller Center and I thought, they are one thing that I will never get tired or watching-always beautiful, their precision is like no other I think!

Are there things like that that you still like years later?

I've always like the Rockettes and was lucky enough to see them in person once. I always liked the soldier routine, when they link arms ,and collapse like a deck of cards

There are some movies that I've seen dozens if times, but will watch them when they are on again.

When I was a kid and Radio City still showed movies the Rockettes would preform all the time, I saw them maybe 2 or 3 times as a kid and twice in the Christmas show and once in the Spring Spectacular with Derek Hough. I have lived in the NY area all my life but always loved Radio City.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Oh and also Tony Bennet.

I think I don't care what or how he sings~I still love him every time.

It might also be because he is always smiling and seems like such a nice person!

When I was young my dream was to become a dancer and join the Rockettes.  It's still a dream.  Whenever I see them my feet start moving.

Two of my second cousins, identical twins, were Rockettes!

I love watching the Rockettes.  I love their costumes too.  It's amazing how precise and sharp all their movements are.  I've been lucky enough to see them a couple of times.  My kids loved it too.  It's great for all ages

I love the Rockettes and I was thrilled when they accepted women of color to the lineup.Smiley Happy

 

Every little girl can dream of being part of this amazing group of dancers and with hard work it might come true.

 

It was a Christmas tradition when I was little my mom would take me to every year for a while and I loved it. Heart

 

I also went a few times with my school.

I had so much fun!

[ Edited ]

One time I watched a documentary about the Rockettes and how they came to be. One of the things that I learned was that the dancers don't lock arms when they are in the line dancing. They just put their arms along the back side of and never touching the adjacent dancers. I was so surprised to learn this.
