Well, you've read the notes, the notes were angular, and now it is time for you to post until the angular cows come home.

Jose, if you do see "Kinky Boots," we expect a full report. I've enjoyed the three or four songs I've heard from it so far, but that's no sign that the show works.

Here is the dog and me.

Lisa, the lady who rescued him gave him a name that I am having a hard time pronouncing and remembering it. So I am calling him for the time being "Junior" because he reminds me of my first dog.

So far so good. He stays on a little bed that I bought him without asking and came into my bedroom to welcome the day and then HE took me for a walk.  ;D

And even though I tend to walk 5K on a daily basis, this morning will be for me than just because "I want to" and/or "I want to get a cookie/ice cream/candy"...

Yesterday's day-long celebration was most entertaining, and it was fun to see so many people from the PAST.

Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson was okay.  The cast was for the most part excellent, the lead was especially good - AND I could understand every word that was sung....which helps.

Not a big fan of the show, but it says what it wants to see - half assed as that may be.  No need to ever see it again in my life, but I am glad I saw it once.

I was supposed to be two places today, but I decided I didn't have to be at either of them....so I don't have to be anyplace today.

My KINKY BOOTS tribute parody :)  with much love to Ms. Lauper

Tune of GOOD ENOUGH (Cyndi Lauper recording)

Here we are
A Broadway of shows without new songs
Brand new scores seem not to come
So few new songs that you can’t stand it

Jukeboxes and revivals
Old stuff for stars to play with
Here's her new score based on film -
Hope she's -

New enough for you
‘Cause she’s new enough for me
It's new enough, it's new enough for me
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

Now you say
You're scared the movie trend won’t end
Each movie that’s in the can
Broadway starts puttering through those;

New plots must have star writers
Like Book of Mormon’s does
If not, you get no buzz;
Hope she’s -

New enough for you
She’s new enough for me
It's new enough, it's new enough for me
(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)

Good morning, all!

I am under the weather. I hope it isn't the flu, since my flu shot is scheduled for Wednesday morning, but it may just be a bad chapter of Me And My Allergies. I'm hoping.

DR ChasSmith, I thought the Austtralian Opera and Ballet Orchestra played the score for FLEDERMAUS quite well. I believe the production of PINAFORE/TRIAL BY JURY was from Melbourne. In th credits, the scores shown are the new editions from Broude Brothers which are quite excellent. I was surprised that the cut duet from PINAFORE, included in the Broude score as an appendix, wasn't put back, but perhaps they feel it was unnecessary then and remains unnecessary now.

I'm making a trip to the market and that's my day.

Broude Brothers!  I know I've been out the loop, but I haven't heard that name in years.  I still have a few of their hardcover scores from way back when.  

Didn't know about a new G&S edition, either.  Is this related to those Dover scores published a while back, or something entirely different?

Also, I don't know about my reading comprehension yesterday, but it's TRIAL BY JURY that I don't know.  Somehow missed that the other one was PINAFORE.

I thnk the Dover "editors" are total fools and an insult to the word. I have little respect for them.

The Broudes as folk are fools, from my experience once in applying to work for them around 1984, and their edition, which was announced over 30 years ago and so far only two volumes have been published, seems an awfully long time tin production for the remaining 12 or so volumes. 

Still, both editions are quite wonderful, excellent in all respects, and i hope more are released before I die:

It's a beautiful day in Manhattan.

We were out and about early. We went to Penn Station to pick up our tickets for DC. We are having a small trip/honeymoon courtesy of a dear old friend. She didn't know what to do/what to get us for our wedding and she decided she should give us a trip to DC (she lives there). We are old friends (35 years) from college and after and this is a great present.

We leave Friday morning on the Acela Express Business Class and return Sunday evening. We are being housed at the

Mayflower Hotel

On Saturday evening we are being taken to dinner at

Bistro D'Oc

We're meeting Karen and Melinda, another friend who pairing with Karen to make the gift, for drinks at the Lounge in the hotel on Friday evening.

On Saturday during the day we may go to

President Lincoln's Cottage in DC

We will probably have brunch on Sunday somewhere in Dupont Circle and then play in the city until our train back early Sunday evening.

We are very excited about our trip and the gift from our very generous friends.

I'm up after a pretty good night's sleep.  The neighbors were out playing with the dog this morning so that was about nine-thirty.  Then I just stayed in bed.  Then I got up and was greeted with page one.

This will NOT do, oh, no, this will not do and will lead to a lot of angularity.
