Post by: elmore3003 on August 03, 2011, 04:00:57 AM: Good morning, all! I couldn't get to sleep last night so I was up until midnight. This morning I couldn't sleep so I dragged myself out of bed at 6 am. Luckily, it won't be a long day at the McGlinnventory, so I may get a nap this afternoon.

The good news this morning is that thethree cartons of scores and orchestra parts have now arrived in Dublin, They should be delivered to the Dublin producers' offices today. That's a great weight off my back.

This morning, I have a trip to the McGlinnventory at Park and 23rd Street. Following that, since I'm loaded down with music, I may taxi home. Hopefully, the check I'm expecting will arrvie today, and I can deal with that later in the afternoon.

DR vixmom, I'm sorry you've been feeling out of sorts! I'm late with the vibes and I apologize for that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Vibes of peace and harmony to Our DR vixmom! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Post by: vixmom on August 03, 2011, 04:39:55 AM: I received a email with a code for discounted Follies tickets but apparently the code only applies to the far sides of the orchestra and way back of the mezzanine

I really wanted to take the Vixter to see the show but cannot spring for $135 + tickets especially with college books to buy...

Do any of our New York experts know whether the sides and rear mezzanine still provide a decent view at the Marquis?

Even the cheap seats will run me 180 a pair and I hate to spend that kind of money if I can't see the stage

The Scottish Opera will not let Mr Gavan Ring, who's playing one of the leading roles in their touring production of Orphee aux enfers, off for the two weeks to do the recording. We've lost a fantastic baritone and we're back to the proverbial drawing board.

If you have some flexibility with your dates, check a couple of them out, and see how close in you get in on the sides in the orchestra section. Otherwise, the mezzanine seats aren't too bad overall.

He told me they are still working on their April service agreements! I think mine would have been for May or June. The flood put them behind because of the number of people who wanted their furnaces removed as a preventative measure.

I couldn't believe the amount of water still standing around Omaha. The entire immigration court building is fortified with sandbags, cement walls etc, it's really strange to see because the river didn't get that high. We also saw homes surrounded by water etc. Remember, this started shortly after memorial day

I always see it on old Paramount films Process Photography by Farciot Edouart.

I know what it is....BUT does that credit mean the person photographed what is projected on the process screen....or that person photographed the actors doing the scene in front of the process screen?

Well, damnation! The Scottish Opera will not let Mr Gavan Ring, who's playing one of the leading roles in their touring production of Orphee aux enfers, off for the two weeks to do the recording. We've lost a fantastic baritone and we're back to the proverbial drawing board.

Sorry, DR TCB!

Think how bad he must feel that he won't be meeting me!

I'm feeling like being peeved is just what I do since the ex-employers re-opened the unemployment thing last week.

I don't know why Division of Labor for Unemployment doesn't just say after a year (almost 16 months at this point), it's time for them to stop.

That is totally ridiculous.

This version is titled Alwida Mera Jaan.

I second that. Imagine being sent away to a country you hardly even know. That would be horrible.

She would have been in a very bad way if she had to go back. I'm very happy for her. She asked if I like tamales, so hopefully there will be homemade tamales in my future. No one has brough me fresh tamales in a long time and the client who made me ceviche all the time got deported

OKLAHOMA! was the 2nd stage play I ever saw.

The first was HARVEY with Joe E. Brown. I was 5-years-old. The year was 1946.

The road company of OKLAHOMA! came to the (long gone) Metropolitan Theater in Seattle in either the late 1940s or very early 1950s. Don't remember which. Unfortunately, I don't recall who was in that production.
