I grew up in the city (well, cities), and I was always more a fan of the orginal "La Boheme," rather than "Rent," which I found a little lacking in the soul department. Maybe there's something to that? Not sure.
I do have great memories of some performances of La Boheme. Also, being the guy who wanted to take the girl to an opera was kinda cool. I really did love it, though. I was a romantic at heart, I think. There was one performance of "Quando Me'n Vo Soletta" that really almost had me in tears. I manned up the best I could, but it kept stabbing me for days and days afterward.
