Hi, JazzO--I have a double mental link to your post: paint, and a first. When the Kentucky Center for the Arts was built downtown for concerts, musicals, etc., the husband of a friend of mine worked for Porter Paints, and they had the contract to do the painting. Their executives were given tickets to the first performance, but he didn't want to go, so she asked me to. Roberta Flack and the Louisville Orchestra. But this concert wasn't open to the public--it was put on especially for the workers who had built the place. We walked up carpeted stairs that still had plaster dust on them, and a large proportion of the audience wore plaid shirts and blue jeans. And that is how I came to go to the very first concert ever given at our new Arts Center.
