"Pushing Daisies" and "Life" are my evening's plans.

All else is chaff....

So...where IS singdaw?

Was this the night that DR singdaw was heading back into NYC to catch Such Good Friends? Maybe so, maybe not.

I have tried getting on here a few times since the weekend but kept being interrupted before I could post

So with little fanfare (and befoer the news is entirely stale)

And even though I've never seen ACL (I know, I missed my chance last week!) I can imagine the dance moves, and also what I imagine to be Fosse moves.

You're right - I forgot to mention ACL!

OH!...

I keep meaning to mention that DR Jason has been sidelined with a very bad cold/head/chest something the past couple of days. Thankfully, today is his day off, so I hope he's been able to get some good rest. God knows, his schedule is only going to get crazier once his rehearsals start for his tour.

OK you Southin' guys and gals:

Family Crisis; I insisted on buying catfish (@4.99/lb) as opposed to Flounder/Rock Fish/Shark/Salmon at twice that price. Now I would think a soak in egg, and dredge thru flower and a pop in the fry pan would work (maybe some cornmeal mixed in with the flour - and french fries. Mr "Never Do Anything" easy is now talking some batter dipping and deep-fat frying - and hush puppies (which required a return trip to the store for Buttermilk) are on the impending menu.) Of course I added to the menu cost by insisting on Avacado for my green salad).

WHAT?!?!?

I think I know what you meant through all the missed letters, finger slips and unclosed parentheses, but...

The "secret" I learned with catfish was to soak it in milk for a bit. Or even just pass it through milk before dredging it in cornmeal and flour. However, since you're making hushpuppies, then go the "classic" route, and use the dry hush puppy mix for your coating - since hush puppies were traditionally made from the extra breading.

So... Let's see... Matchbox for their Mini-Burgers and Pizza... Teaism for their Salty Oat and Chocolate Chip Granola Cookies... Jaleo for the skewers of Chorizo on top of some amazing mashed potatoes... Zaytinya for anything with lamb... The Carlyle for their Flourless Chocolate Waffle and their high-end Banana Pudding with Caramelized(!) Vanilla Wafers... Etc., etc., etc...

Wednesday evening greetings! We're relaxing at our apartment between our NYMF shows. Earlier today, DH HaHaHaHa Richard and I visited DR Elmore at his office and then took the Upper West Side portion of the Gray Line tour. After misreading my map, we got to the Julia Miles Theatre just in time to pick up our tickets and settle into our seats for the 4:30 performance of Such Good Friends. A tall guy in a suit sat right in front of me and kept wiggling all through the first act, so we moved and I enjoyed the second act much more (even though it's much more serious). The cast is very strong and DR Noel should be pleased.

Pretty soon we'll be off to the 9pm performance of The Last Starfighter.

There's been no real date set. Yes. And, frankly, I'd still like to take my time making way to the podium as it were. I also think it would be one of those deals where I'd probably conduct a put-in rehearsal during the day, and then be on-call at night for any emergencies that may arise. We'll see. I still need to play a few shows in the pit, and that won't happen for another two weeks or so.

Alas, although I am honored - and humbled - that Brad asked me to come on board, the show is still not settling in all that well to my hands and head. It just may not be "my show", so... Once the two new girls have gotten their first shows out the way over the next two weeks, then we can start talking about my first shows as a pit pianist and a conductor.
