2006 Gay Games Opening Ceremonies, Soldier Field, Chicago. I was in the stands and took a bunch of photographs. I then assembled them as a little slide show accompanied by two of the songs that were performed during the ceremony. These are the studio recordings, not the live performances, but both of the original artists, Andy Bell and Heather Small performed these songs at the event. Hope it brings back some memories for those who were there.
Well, this hit me out of the blue! Five years after the event, to have this bring up so many, disparate memories and feelings is a welcome reminder of a powerful and powerfully tough project. It didn't turn out perfectly, yet it did offer some wonderful, iconic, life-changing moments that continue to live in the memories and affect the lives of many who were there...Thank you for building this, Waiting4aDream.
