Expo '86 /O n th e M o v e
I was fortunate enough to venture to Expo 86 in Vancouver, 8 C-, this
last weekend, primarily to see the Kenny G
George Benson concert
featured in the Expo Theatre. To be honest, being a veteran of the amuse
ment park wars, that's the only reason I went. Like many others whom I've
talked with, my general opinion was that Expo was no more than a stepped
up and glorified amusement park Boy. was I wrongl From the minute I
stepped through the gate. I knew that 2 days would not be enough to see
all there was to see and do,
The exhibits, the rides, the food, the people, Every thing about Expo 86
was positive The theme for this exposition is communication and transpor
tation; truly a theme for the 80 s and for the world Some of my favorites
(of the few I got to see) were Studio '86, where, for a small fee, you can
choose from a list of popular songs blues, country, gospel, pop and funk,
and record your voice lor voices) with the actual instrumental tracks used
by the artists1 They provide lyrics, your own sound engineer, and rehearsal
time.
Then there was the air transportation exhibit featuring actual aircraft
from the days of the Wright Bros to today's flying fortresses Another one
of my favorites was the Ramses II exhibit with artifacts from the days before
Christ. These include necklaces, burial cases, statues, games and more,
enjoyed by Ramses II. one of the greatest Kings of ancient times I could go
on, but in this case, brief summaries |ust won't do. so go see it yourself1
It's only a five or six hour drive, and $100 00 of U S currency gets you
$136 00 Canadian to make up for the prices Try to make hotel reservations
in advance to avoid the panic Singles, families, old or young. Expo 86 is
for everyone
As far as live entertainment, there are nightclubs that feature not only
music but comedy and dance, as well So far George Benson. Kenny G ,
Manhattan Transfer, Billy Ocean. Andre Crouch. Al Green. The Mighty
Clouds of Joy. Julian Lennon, Lena Horne, Lou Rawls, Ray Charles.
George Burns and Smokey Robinson have graced the stages of Expo along
with many more Don't dispair, because there's more to come all the way
to the close on October 13th I'll be glad to keep you posted on the enter
tainment side, but Expo holds more in store than words can say. so don't
miss it or you will have missed out
