Title: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET
Post by: bk on March 17, 2018, 12:09:11 AM: Well, you've read the notes, the notes had dancing feet and you came and saw them, and now it is time for you to post until the dancing cows come home.

Title: Re: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET
Post by: bk on March 17, 2018, 02:38:18 AM: I don't think I've ever shared this before - here's Sami doing my song Annie - which kind of became her signature song - the difference here is this is the ALS benefit from two years ago and this version has a wonderful orchestration by Lanny Meyers - the band is rough a couple of times (the rehearsal was better in that regard) but Sami is stellar. To think that one of the producers put their foot down the year before about Sami appearing and won that fight, and then tried to do it again and enlist the aid of the fellow producers is nauseating - now that producer denies it, but there's no denying it because it was witnessed by more than just me, and it happened only because I put MY foot down and made it a dealbreaker. I knew this would stop the show and boy did it - and that probably also didn't sit well with the producer. But that's another story for another day. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04b8dkGhTRw

Title: Re: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET
Post by: Jrand73 on March 17, 2018, 04:40:43 AM: I shall come back for the TOD.

I am getting ready to leave for an ANNIE Workshop that the director wanted to do. I told her she would be up to her elbows in LITTLE GIRLS - she didn't believe me.....we have THRTY-ONE signed up....and even though registration was requested, I'm sure a few more will show up...

I am helping read the scenes with the darlings.....there will also be music/song help and instructions....and dance instruction....it runs from 10 a.m. to Noon.

The best thing is that it is at the Kerr Theatre - the little black box theatre at DePauw where I did THE TROUBLE WITH ACCOUNTANTS. And of course it will be great to see everyone again....and get back into the SWING of things....for 2018.

Post by: elmore3003 on March 17, 2018, 05:13:10 AM: Thank you all for the vibes for my friend Pam. Her birthday was this week and I had noticed that she had not picked up her e-card. I now know why. Emily's email told me that her parents had not told their children until a couple of weeks ago and last night friends were notified.
Title: Re: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET

Great number.

I didn't know that BK had written this.

On the other hand, maybe I did, but I forgot.

I'm forgetting a lot of things these days.

Title: Re: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET
Post by: Ginny on March 17, 2018, 07:47:09 AM: Speaking of travel, Richard and I have decided NOT to attempt a trip to the Pacific Northwest this summer. I just couldn't gear up for a multi-leg flight. We've lined up some other travel though, including the first week of July in New York City. Two other church-related driving trips, one to western Kentucky in late May and the other to Memphis in October. Attached to that one, we'll visit Vicksburg and drive part of the Natchez Trace.
Title: Re: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET
Post by: ChasSmith on March 17, 2018, 07:59:18 AM: On a short visit to Memphis and Tupelo some years back I drove a few miles of the Natchez Trace, and I’ve always wanted to get down there again — not just to drive the Trace, but to get a much better feel for the region, and to enjoy a LOT more of the food.
Title: Re: COME AND SEE THOSE DANCING FEET

We'll be in New York July 1-9. The driving trip to Owensboro/Paducah, Kentucky, will be about May 30-June 4. So we'll be here most of June and, then, from July 10 on. I'll also be papercrafting in Cincinnati August 8-11.

Organizing the mess sounds like fun!

Post by: elmore3003 on March 17, 2018, 01:00:00 PM: My friend Pam went to an Indiana college, St Mary of the Woods, and when she graduated in 1968 she married a student in the Miami U architecture dept., which was a 5-year program. She worked the summer theatre season with me and the director of the dept. offered her an assistantship in the box office for Sept. 1968, when I became a grad assistant as well. I loved her immediately.

This photo of her and Paul is from around 1969.

Today on her Facebook page her daughters posted this:
To Everyone Who Loves Pam - The family has gathered to fill the house on Drummond Road with love, warmth, and a lot of Bruce Springsteen. These days, Mom's body can't always keep up with her spirit. This is happening fast -- for all of us. Mom has lived a powerful life and has fought a great fight; and done both with love. We appreciate all of you keeping Mom and Dad in your hearts and sending love and light our way during these quiet last days.

I'll put in the order before then but it won't get processed until I've seen the two books to make sure they're fine. Then the order will be prioritized and expedited shipping - I don't have to pay for any shipping on these at all.

Post by: Jrand73 on March 17, 2018, 03:52:05 PM: Came home from the workshop and immediately fell asleep.

It was fun, but there were folks that should have stayed to home....but most of them did listen.

My niece and my cousin's grand daughter were both there...and they did well.... During the first dance sequence, I was watching an 8 year old boy. He ALWAYS turned the wrong way.....I watched him almost turn the right way....then change his mind and go the wrong way....every time. One of the other boys did all the steps but he was about two beats ahead of the music. One little girl couldn't get a jazz square, because she touching instead of stepping and putting her weight on the right foot....

So tres amusement!

Before the readings, Caroline asked if anyone didn't want to be touched....so I raised my hand....

I also worked with our accompanist on my audition song while we were alone....she said I did fine....but she's a very nice person.

I've asked Emily to let me know when Pam's up to a phone call. It's going to be painful, and I hope I can keep from blubbering.

It will be a very difficult call :(

I'm afraid I've joined the ranks of the walking wounded. I think I pulled a muscle in my right arm the other day. It hurts like hell and I have very limited use of that arm. Two nights of poor sleep haven't helped. I shall make my time here brief.

Ouch! I hope it doesn't take too long to heal.

My friend Pam went to an Indiana college, St Mary of the Woods, and when she graduated in 1968 she married a student in the Miami U architecture dept., which was a 5-year program. She worked the summer theatre season with me and the director of the dept. offered her an assistantship in the box office for Sept. 1968, when I became a grad assistant as well. I loved her immediately.

This photo of her and Paul is from around 1969.

Today on her Facebook page her daughters posted this:
To Everyone Who Loves Pam - The family has gathered to fill the house on Drummond Road with love, warmth, and a lot of Bruce Springsteen. These days, Mom's body can't always keep up with her spirit. This is happening fast -- for all of us. Mom has lived a powerful life and has fought a great fight; and done both with love. We appreciate all of you keeping Mom and Dad in your hearts and sending love and light our way during these quiet last days.

This is as beautiful as it is sad. Reading it, I suspect you may not be able to talk to Pam :(

I assume we'll be doing any back and forth with the theater before the show opens from here, of course, and if plane fares cooperate, I could probably coordinate when I see the show with everyone from HHW's schedules.

The only adjustment they're asking about so far is a different number than on the CD (and in the published script) for the Battle scene (which is 8 minutes, though).

It is possible we can drive up during one of your visits even if we can't make the show. Of course I do want to see it, especially since I enjoy the CD very much.

People - can't live with 'em can't live with 'em. I knew I was going to make some kind of pasta with red sauce so in addition to the onion I was going to sauté, I got some mushrooms and some sweet sausage, ground. I've never done that before so I'll just use a little bit of it and see how I like it. If it's good I may try it with Wacky Noodles or in a scramble. New things.

Speaking of travel, Richard and I have decided NOT to attempt a trip to the Pacific Northwest this summer. I just couldn't gear up for a multi-leg flight. We've lined up some other travel though, including the first week of July in New York City. Two other church-related driving trips, one to western Kentucky in late May and the other to Memphis in October. Attached to that one, we'll visit Vicksburg and drive part of the Natchez Trace.

Darn! It would've been fun to meet you and Richard.
