The Anniversary That Wasn’t
We promised fireworks, drone ballets, and a star-studded gala—then delivered a gentle tribute titled “40 Years of Dolly Magic.”
Passholders got a sneak peek. Fans got a curated playlist. Our site got a modest click bump. Somewhere between the spectacle and the shrine, I realized you can plan chaos—but you can’t control it.
Maybe next year we’ll nail every detail. Then again, real magic has always thrived in the mess. And I’ll be here—red pen in hand—ready for round two.
