Hmmm...

With all the Michael John LaChiusa/Marc Shaiman brou-ha-ha... I forgot that this was on MJL's calendar for next season.

http://www.playbillarts.com/news/article/2664.html

I guess he's trying to rally the troops behind him in advance.  *Although, hasn't his subject matter been treated in numerous movies and television sitcoms by now?  ;)

*I also think it's sort of "funny" that he's standing in front of the poster for Passion in the pic in the article.

Actually, there are some things that ML does not have which sort of surprise me.  And there are also some things that ML does not have... but I do.

The pressing plant turmoil has been dealt with and all is well.  The Reader's Digest version is that my designer recommended the plant based on his long relationship with the lady who does the orders.  She's been unhappy, and last week gave her notice.  Since I'd just brought in the new masters, that made me very antsy - since I didn't know if she was taking them to the new place or what.  That is indeed what's happening and they'll still meet my shipping date of before labor day.  So, that's good.  And, Guy and ATB will go over to the new plant as well, after we repress ATB this week.

Meanwhile, our new albums should be up for preorder by this evening and, if I get them in time, will ship a good two weeks before street date.  There will be sound clips, etc.

Well, it's quite a beautiful day here, and I think I'm gonna go out and enjoy it for a while.  I was hoping to get over to Mass MoCA today, but it turns out they're closed on Tuesdays.  Whaddup widdat?!?!? However, I'm going to check the bus schedule, and I may head down to Pittsfield for a few hours too.

Well, it is commonly known in the midwest that ML is *the* source of sheet music in New York City. Forget Colony Records - head over to ML's apartment.

Now that myth is shot to hell. What's a boy to do? ::)

I just got an email from our producer. BERNICE starts rehearsing the bobbing of her mullet on August 22nd. Turns out I know two or three other people in the show, so that makes me happy.

Happy birthday, Dear Reader Vixmom!

Today I am going to get into an argument with the minister. In public, so I might get to cause a scene, and I haven't done that in at least a week.

Greetings all.

First and foremost, many thanks for the birthday greetings, this past Saturday.  It was a calm and uneventful day, just as I like them to be.

Happy Birthday to fellow Leo, DR Vixmom.

DR Hisaka, you were the first person I thought of when I heard about the earthquake.  I am glad you (and your apparently treasured TV) are fine.

Welcome back to the heat and humidity of NYC, DR TPunk.

Every Curmudgeon deserves a pet.
That is one UGLY dog.  Whoa.

(and John Bolton with his goatee looked like a young, blonde Tim Curry)
John will be happy to hear about that.  He's a friend, and was supposed to come to dinner last week, but -- apropos of that Riedel item last week about Nichols being livid about absences -- his producer's asked him to stay in town, and delay his vacation.  He is also the NICEST man in show business, bar none.

As I'd rather have the Greek as a friend than not have the Greek at all, I pine away in silence.

So...you'd rather have FIFTY PERCENT of him, than all... of ... anybody else...at all?


And finally, the TOD:
Glenn Miller.  Across the board.

As far as vocalists go, I usually go with the women over the men.  Except Peggy Lee.  I can't stand her. (An almost SINGIN' IN THE RAIN reference.)  Except for "Is That All There Is?"

Whew!  Long post.

More later, film at 11.

Glenn Miller, the usual suspects:

IN THE MOOD
MOONLIGHT SERENADE
STRING OF PEARLS
AMERICAN PATROL (I think that is the title of it)

Vocalists:

The Andrews Sisters, to be sure - APPLE BLOSSOM TIME

Betty Hutton -  I Wake Up In the Morning Feeling Fine,  Square in the Social Circle, Stuff Like that There

Ella Mae Morse - Accentuate the Positive (also done well by Hutton)

Dick Haymes

Well, all my little trivia experts have FAILED and FAILED despite a huge clew that the director of the film had his name in today's notes.  Lazy, lazy, lazy (that is three lazys).

The answer to the question what movie used the song At Last as its major piece of scoring is The Last Time I Saw Archie, directed by the mentioned-in-the-notes Jack Webb.

Well, I didn't get that answer, but I do know that the Archie of that film was in reality the father of the great Arch Hall Jr.

Supposedly he sued the makers of that film.

DerBrucer I never tire of cat photos, cute ones anyway.  The grey cat reminded me of Bogie sleeping on our couch.

George find out the largest size tin your friends would want.  Mine might be too large but anything in their size range I don’t want your friends are welcome to.  Please email me the information.

Hisaka, next time put the TV on the floor and stand under the door frame. :)

Yes, the film is based on Arch Hall, Sr. director of Eegah.  He sued because they didn't bother to change the names - even the author of the screenplay, Bill Bowers, uses his own name in the script.

Welcome back TPunk. :)

DerBrucer-LOL-at the Chinese Crested dog.  Craig saw one and it took a good amount of convincing, on my part, the owners hadn’t shaved the poor thing.  There is one that lives in Bryan’s building in Portland.  Bryan feels bad for the teenage boy in the family who is referred to as the kid with the strange looking dog.

Sandra I hope your discussion went well. ???

I love swing!  That is all the time I have to say on the subject.

I have to admit that I probably would have done what DR Hisaka had done in the same situation.

Therefore, your wise words are greatly appreciated, DR Jane!  I read that and it was one of those smiting one's forehead kind of moments.  "Of course!  That makes so much more sense!"

Jane, will you promise to fly with me whenever and wherever I fly?  It would be good to know that there is a rational person on the plane with me.....

It is not what I did in the wee hours of the morning when hit with a rather large earthquake.  I ran around looking for my cats who were hiding under the bed. ;D
