Next up, I put in the second disc in the ACTION! set and watched a couple of episodes. The first one dealt with Peter's new production assistant (whom he's strongly attracted to, of course) and the potential reconciliation with his wife (currently married to the gay studio head).

The next ACTION! episode dealt with the first day of shooting mired with one problem after another and leading to Peter's heart attack.

I thought the color was a bit erratic on QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE. Much of it looked just fine, but there were some faded scenes. Joi Lansing's costume is a green gown with red sequined gloves (a weird combination under any circumstances), and our first look at this is breathtakingly vivid. When we go back to another shot of her later, it's faded, a bit brown, and soft.

But most of it looks more than acceptable.

I continued watching THE ALPHABET MURDERS to complete my evening of viewing, but I still have about 15 minutes to go. I'll definitely get to the end of it tomorrow.

Eyes are getting very heavy (a good sign that I won't have a repeat of last night's tossing and turning).

Good night!

Greetings to all from Chicago.

I saw a man who danced with his wife!

DR MusicGuy must not have warned EVERYONE here of my imminent arrival, because there are still some people here...

Thanks for all for the travel vibes!  We had a slightly terrifying encounter with what the pilot later told us was a "three dimensional wake" just before landing, but otherwise, all went smoothly.

Weather here is lovely.

Back from Les Miz, which we quite enjoyed.

What's up for brunch/lunch tomorrow?

Glad Edisaurus finished and liked Kritzer Time - perhaps she'll review it for amazon.  

I'll have them fix the Brain blurb.  I'm going to add photos and song clips as soon as they tell me how.

I'm just in from seeing the Pittsburgh CLO's production of OKLAHOMA!  To my surprise, it was very well directed & choreographed, and above all - NEVER boring.
The use of Shirley Jones as Aunt Eller borders on genius, to have Matt Bogart's Curly sing "Surrey With The Fringe on Top" almost entirely to her, while Laurie daydreams on the opposite side of the stage, WAS total genius.
URINETOWN's Jennifer Cody is by far the best Ado Annie I have ever seen, and I'm looking forward to meeting her dear husband on Sunday afternoon following the final performance.
What can I say about Jason Graae that hasn't already been said here?  His Ali Hakim was a delight, and crowd pleaser, from horn to hoof.
There's just something surreal about seeing Jones as Aunt Eller, with a brunette Laurie who looks remarkably like the youthful Shirley Jones.
After the show, BK's ears should have been burning, as Jason and I were talking about BK's own connection with Shirley Jones.

Notes are written and now I get to relax until midnight.  I also will have another Unseemly Trivia Contest question for you, but it will be in the posts not the notes.

DR Ginny et al - DRs MusicGuy, Ben, Ant, myself and whoever else would like to join us, will be meeting for breakfast at the Brooklyn Diner on 43rd and 7th Ave/Broadway (it's on the north side of the street).  DR MusicGuy flies out tomorrow around 2:00, so he'll head to the airport after the breakfast.  So...  if you happen to read this in the morning, please join us.  *And if it turns out that you're reading this after you've had your breakfast, feel free to head on down anyway.  -Myself, I have to head to ACL at 11:00 - thankfully, it's just down the block.

So... What another amazing day!  For many, many reasons!

The Happy Days auditions I played this morning were fun and "informative".  And, yes, fun.  It was a dance call, and let's just say a few of the people called this morning should probably take the dance credits off their resumes.  ;)

And then on the way out of Ripley-Grier, I ran into a dear friend of mine from DC who has spent the past two years in San Diego as UCSD getting his Master's.  He's literally been back in the City for two weeks, and he was running in for an audition.  And then it also happened that he had got called in for another audition on Monday, and had been calling around for a pianist to work with for a half hour just to record some music for him.  Well...  So, after lunch with the gang, I headed back to R-G, and we had a great coaching and catch-up session.  And in the words of DR MusicGuy - who happened to see him too - he's very "pretty".   :)

And then when I headed back up to R-G with my friend from DC, I happened to run into another dear, dear friend whom I haven't seen in about 15 years(!).  He's a great actor/singer, and I've seen his name on various cast lists, but in all my time in NYC, I've never run into him.  Until today!  And it also turns out the girl he was dating in college - another dear friend of mine - is now his wife, and they've been married for eight years!  We made plans to get together sometime next week for dinner.  I can't wait!

As for lunch with the gang...  After meeting up at The Little Pie Shop, we ended up heading across the street to La Madeleine, which turned out to be a very good French bistro.  DR MusicGuy had the Hangar Steak.  DR MBarnum had the Duck Salad - his first time having duck!  DR Jason has the Chicken Breast with Ratatouille.  I had the "Heritage" Pork Burger - which was amazingly delicious!  And DR FJL had the Bistro Burger.

YUM! YUM YUM! YUM! YUM!

DISH! DISH! DISH! DISH! DISH!  *And, I'm not talking about the table settings.  ;)

After lunch, we headed back across the street for dessert... Apple Pie, Mississippi Mud Pie, Cherry Pie and Triple Berry Pie a la mode.

Again, just sooooooooooo good.
