Audition Tale Time...
A gentleman came in today to audition. I've played for him before, and let's just say, the last time I played for him, he was not that complimentary of me. So... I start his playing song, he starts singing after the intro is done. Then about two lines in, he flubs a line, then asks to stop and start again. -Which is OK - sometimes you forget a line. No biggie. So, I start he again, he starts again, and things go swimmingly. Well...
After talking with the casting agent, and after recalling some of the recent auditions I've played for him, it occurs to both of us that he always messes up, and he always recovers... successfully. Hmm...
Games people play...
