THE TRIP

Bruce Kimmel Photograph bk's notes

Well, dear readers, it is the day before The Trip and I must hurry and scurry, not necessarily in that order. I haven’t even begun to pack, and I must meet up with Grant Geissman to get the tracks for the session, which I have to bring with me.

Today we are happy to have a brand spanking new Unseemly Interview for your mental delectation. It’s with Seth Rudetsky, and if you don’t know who he is you are in for a treat. Seth has a weekly interview show at Don’t Tell Mama’s, called Seth’s Chatterbox, and he’s got many stories to tell about many celebs, plus his own very active career as a pianist/musical director and now performer in his one-man show, Rhapsody in Seth. So, after you’re done reading these here notes and posting, do read it and post about it, too.

My darling daughter spent the night last night and we had quite a good time, chatting and watching parts of DVDs. She’s heading back home shortly.

For those who missed the announcement, I’m pleased to say that Katherine Helmond is joining our merry troupe for the new CD, and we are pleased and excited to have her. She’ll be doing her vocal in Los Angeles, California, along with the other LA vocalists, Michelle Nicastro, Sharon McNight and Tammi Tappan.

Well, why don’t we all click on the Unseemly Button below because I must hurry and scurry and scurry and hurry because I’ve got a flurry of things to do, places to go, and people to see in preparation for The Trip.

Don’t forget, Donald will have a brand spanking new radio show up this weekend, and because of my schedule we will be skipping this week’s Unseemly Live Chat. We may have an impromptu one during the week, so stay tuned.

The notes this weekend will have to be on the short side, but I will leave it to you dear readers to take up the slack and post long and copious notes so people have plenty to read and ponder, not necessarily in that order. Yes, Virginia, you dear readers will have to take up the slack. Of course, maybe “up” doesn’t want the fershluganah slack, and then where will we be? Damn them, damn them all to hell.

Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do, I must hurry and scurry and dash about and pack and whatnot because tomorrow morning, bright and early, I shall be embarking on The Trip. Today’s topic of discussion: It’s Friday – what is currently in you CD player and your DVD/video player. I’ll start – CD, the soundtrack to Brian de Palma’s film Femme Fatale, by Ryuichi Sakamoto. DVD, a TV movie from the seventies entitled A Cold Night’s Death, which is a DVD-R I found on eBay. Your turn. Also, at the request of several new dear readers, we shall do a roll call, which we haven’t done in quite some time. Everyone tell who they are, where they are from, and what they do. I’ll check back later, oh, yes, I will check back later and I will also make sure that “up” knows it will be receiving some slack from you.
