Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of Kritzerland 33, and now it is time for you to post until the 33 cows come home.
-
And the word of the day is: TROGLODYTE!
-
BK - So great to read these notes about how well last night went.
We all know only from the postings along the way there were a few rehearsal glitches along the way on this one, but it sounds like everything turned out so incredibly well where it really counted!
-
Morning all.
That is all.

good morning to all

Off to work today (if it can be called work!)

Good morning, all! I have to be to Toyland early to receive the second shipment of this Kinko's order. Let's hope it looks great and that the manager, who seems very friendly and wanting to help, came through.
Once that's delivered, I can deal with binding the scores and preparing a shipment to Dublin. I hope I can talk to Rob Berman today about this leading man situation. He's not accepted the offer, which was made a week ago, and I am ready to hold auditions.
DR Cillaliz, raccoons bite! I hope you can easily get rid of it.
It's nice to hear the show went well. Was the singer who began the number again the fit thrower?

Good morning, all.
No Oys this morning. Just: Coffee!

No Oys, no schleps to the high school, just a day of blessed rest and recovery. Then I'm playing auditions tonight and tomorrow night for something composed by some local person, for which auditioners were advised to bring something G&S-ish or otherwise operetta-ish. That part at least should be interesting.

I have a raccoon family that visits the palm tree outside my front window (also where I park my car) where they eat the berries. Scared the heck out of me many times, now I'm just really careful not to spook them. :-\

Raccoon-be-gone vibes for Cillaliz and Sam.

I watched GUILT TRIP yesterday and enjoyed it very much. I like the two lead performers so much, that it would have to have been a COMPLETE misfire otherwise for me not to like it.

Raccoon Be Gone vibes for DR CILLA LIZ....they are persistent messy creatures.
Speaking of Jodi Arias, hopefully we get a quick verdict so that DR LAURA is charged much more $$$$, at least for THIS phase of process.
-
Good news about the Kritzerland Show - I think most of us can figure out who the starter-overer must have been.
If there are a few orders for FOLLIES from Indiana, it may be because I sent the link to my friends who are doing FOLLIES this month in Indy.

Raccoons carry rabies and other diseases. Also, they do a lot of damage to property. I'm already seeing wood strips in the eaves trough, so I have to see what damage he did last night and find a handy man to fix it. I found one spot and I'm concerned the roof may leak there.

Monday morning greetings! Gentle, steady spring rain here in SW Ohio - glad it held off until after the weekend.

It's Monday morning. I can tell.

I have now seen Kronborg (Elsinore) Castle in the flesh (or whatever). Well, at least across the water from Kronborg. We have Sweden on one side of the ship and Denmark on the other side of the ship.

I was not able to go ashore in Sweden because the ship was anchored and the passengers tendered into port. I was not allowed to tender.

So, a friend with a flexible schedule does pay off. He just got off the line at the Booth Theatre with two rush tickets for tonight's performance of
I'll Eat You Last (http://www.illeatyoulast.com/)
The Booth is one of my favorite theatres, small, good sight lines and beautifully maintained. We are in the last row of the mezzanine on the aisle in the center section. I'm looking forward to it.
Now I just have to get to Kinky Boots and Pippin next Saturday (18th) and Sunday (19th) and do the same thing. Rush for $37.

I had been having a BIG problem with my Google searches using Firefox.....I was getting more redirects to selling sites than being taken to links I was clicking on.
Finally looked around on the net to see what the problem was. Found it! If anyone else is having this problem, let me know, and I can send you the solution....it's just a couple of clicks, nothing to download.
-
I called Kinko's and got a lot of attitude. When I gave the job to the manager on Friday, she told me it would be delivered on Monday. It wasn't marked for delivery and they want to charge us for another delivery charge! What is going on with my stars an d planets?
-
I'm up, I'm up - I really wanted to sleep in but alas. I did get eight hours at least.
-
Last week summer, this week rain. Go know. No jog for the first time in four weeks, unless it clears up later - but I think I just might deserve a day off from jogging.

Oh I found a very nice Django Reinhardt CD at Goodwill today for $1.99 - lowest price on Amazon is $34.95 highest price is $94.95
-
Rain stopped so I went out to do a jog - got five blocks and it started to drizzle, then drizzle harder, so I turned around and came back. Naturally as soon as I got home it stopped - I actually think it's drizzling still five blocks away - it's funny in LA that way - here it's not drizzling, five blocks and further east it's probably really starting to come down. I'll go later maybe or just take the day off.

Back from a sandwich and no fries or onion rings. The sun keeps trying to appear, and then a second later it looks like rain again, so I don't want to find myself in the middle of a downpour when I'm two miles into the jog, so no jog today.

DR Ginny, WALKiNG HAPPY was not a British import.

I was not able to go ashore in Sweden because the ship was anchored and the passengers tendered into port. I was not allowed to tender.
Had you been warned about this?
I hope so. If they ended up tendering at the last minute that would not be fair or right at all. Hopefully you still had fun on the ship.
-
Thank you DR Vixmom.
-
From DR Laura:
Boy, I understand Keith's sore back. I am just recovering from back pain myself. Which part of his back hurts? My biggest complaint was my mid-back on the right side. That is finally better.
Base of his spine, or lower back center. Currently the back of his hip running down the leg hurts more.
You both do a lot of gardening, wonder if there is a connection. My back is hurting more because Keith is using my heating pad-lol
Wishes your back continues to improve!!!!

Site down for over an hour! We cannot be moving from there fast enough and I've told the new folks this - I'd like it all to happen in the next three weeks. When I first noticed I wrote the host and was told (ten minutes later) that they were aware of the issue and working on it. An hour later I'd had it and called and the guy made the mistake of larding on the attitude, saying "We're working on it" just dripping with "why are you bothering us?" attitude. I shut that down right away by raising my voice slightly and giving back more attitude than he could possibly know what to do with - I said, "Why don't you knock off the defensiveness - it's MY site that's down." He told me it was a lot of sites that they host. I told him, "Funny, your own site is up and running just fine, and I'd like mine to be, too - maybe we should be on the same server." He told me they were working as fast as they could but it could take another hour. But, ten minutes after and here we are and hopefully that's the last of the problems with them today and tonight.
-
Thanks for letting me know we are back up. An hour wasn't too bad though it seemed longer to me.
-
Hello, everyone.
-
Today started with a big, hairy spider in my bathtub. Normally I let these critters live, but not in my space! I washed him down the drain.
Then I had a notice from the California Franchise Tax Board, saying that I owed them several hundred dollars. No, all has been paid. It took a couple hours for someone to call me back, but he did and we got it straightened out. (Their error.)
I tell you, all is not right in the Heavens.
-
It's nice to hear the show went well. Was the singer who began the number again the fit thrower?
I think we've all been wondering this.
-
DR Jeanne I'm relieved that you sorted out the tax board, and with one call too.
-
No-more-raccoon vibes to DR Cillaliz!
Many years ago, when I was living in Alexandria, VA, I was in the upstairs bathroom, brushing my teeth and getting ready for bed, when I noises above me that made me think that someone was on the roof. I called out to my friend John, who was staying with me at the time. His response was the typical, "I didn't hear anything; you must be imagining it." Then we went up to the guest room on the third floor, which looks out to the bathroom roof. And looked right into the face of a raccoon. Boy, was John startled! Some raccoons are the size of a small dog and, on the roof, do sound much heavier.
-
DR Jeanne I'm relieved that you sorted out the tax board, and with one call too.
Jane, I'm not so sure I sorted them out, but this one problem has been resolved. ;)
My check had cleared the bank and they were indeed the ones who cashed it. They had posted it for the wrong year.
-
Good evening!
-
No-more-raccoon vibes for DR Sam, too.

Hope you enjoy Copenhagen, TCB!

from DR Chas yesterday:
What the HELL??!!!
I wouldn't be missing a show if I lived within a couple of hundred miles of the place.
DR Chas, I have scoliosis, a curve in my spine, which causes a lot of problems with my back and neck. It's been a number of years since I've been comfortable enough to go out much in the evenings, even to a movie just down the street. There were a number of Kritzerland shows which I would like to have attended.
-
And now for something completely different...Playbill.com has an article: THE SCREENING ROOM: Runs a Minute 11 Concert.... (http://www.playbill.com/news/article/177651-THE-SCREENING-ROOM-Runs-a-Minute-11-Concert-With-Loni-Ackerman-Brandon-Victor-Dixon-Andr-De-Shields-and-More) and I've just gotten to "Starfish (http://www.playbill.com/news/article/177651-THE-SCREENING-ROOM-Runs-a-Minute-11-Concert-With-Loni-Ackerman-Brandon-Victor-Dixon-Andr-De-Shields-and-More/pg3)" (the song itself starts at about 8:30 into the video) from La Strada, which, of course, was recorded on the first of our very own BK's "Unsung Musicals" CDs.
Is it just me, or does the singer in the video give a very affected performance of the song?? She rarely opens her eyes. :-\
-
I mean, the woman has a nice voice, but what she does with it is just weird. Just sing the darn song!

DR Ginny, WALKiNG HAPPY was not a British import.
Oops! It sure seemed like one when I saw it during its pre-Broadway Detroit run in 1966.
-
We are expecting a storm. We have eaten dinner, washed the dishes & done everything possible before it arrives. If we lose power we also lose our water.
-
Yes, the singer who asked to start the bridge again is the same who threw the fit - and two of my other gals, who are the sweetest most down-to-earth people ever said they thought her behavior backstage was completely off-putting. No matter - none of us ever have to work with her again and that's a good thing.
-
That isn't surprising.

It's a Sondheim song that I've never heard! ;D

"BUTT ME, WALTER!"

-
The raccoons won't be happy ;)
We never seen them, just their poop on the deck and other places. Sherlock was good at finding it-lol
-
In both of our Michigan homes we enjoyed watching the raccoons. In our first home, which backed up to a ravine, there was a big old tree they lived in. Standing on our upper back deck we could see them climb down the tree at dusk. Boy, did they move slowly when they first woke up. In the spring the babies would walk out onto the end of a big limb and watch us while we stood on the deck watching them-oh so cute.
-
I can hear it pouring now. I haven't seen lightening. If I do I will be shutting off the computer.

Some raccoons are the size of a small dog and, on the roof, do sound much heavier.
After I saw the eyes, I went around to the bathroom window where I could get a better look. I was looking at his back and thought for a minute it was the big stray cat that has been hanging around the house. I couldn't figure out how a cat got up there and how the heck it was going to get down. Then the raccoon turned and I knew what it was.
-
DR Cilla just think of all the entertainment your story is providing & will do so in the future. :)

It is quiet outside & more light is coming into the house.

DR Jeanne, sorry, I meant to post this earlier -- I realized later that that sounded critical of you and any others who don't do as I do (or as I say I'd like to do), and I apologize. It wasn't meant in that way at all. I know I tend to be a little more active than many, insofar as having no debilitating health issues (for which I am very grateful), taking advantage of being able to drive hither and yon, keeping late hours, all that good stuff -- so I need to remember that my perspective is somewhat skewed. Sorry about the way that sounded, and I hope you can get to a Kritzerland one of these days.

I was out, so missed the outage! :o

Bruce maybe there are loads of people who would like to go to a matinee show. Have you considered doing one?

No problem, DR Chas. I didn't take it as criticism, just eagerness to enjoy the Kritzerland shows. We take good health for granted, don't we? I hope to see more of the shows on YouTube.

Cillaliz, I'm sure you know that many wild animals like cat food. (I typed that as "car" food.) And, yes, they can do a lot of damage--and can be quite nasty, to boot.

Back to my book. Good night.

Good night, Jeanne.

Six!

Good night, all.

Good evening everyone. I have a question that I'm pretty sure someone around these parts will know the answer to. Did Judy Garland ever record the verse to "Over the Rainbow"? Either in concert or whatever?
Inquiring minds....

matinees aren't possible at this point - we've toyed with the idea of two nights if something were to sell out instantly - or two shows in one night.

It rained this morning, then it was sunshine and I did a three-mile jog at six-thirty, and now it's drizzling again.

I've been choosing songs all evening, which requires a LOT of listening and loading things into iTunes, but I've now got a master list to choose our sixteen or seventeen songs from.

A lovely review for last night's show:

George, that concert has two songs from "Rockabye Hamlet" in it. Always wanted to hear something from that. Love the title "The Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Boogie."
I don't think that I'd even heard of "Rockabye Hamlet."

You people really need to catch up on your BK produced albums - we have a song from it on Shakespeare on Broadway.

Spoo...my bad. I actually have the CD right here behind me. ::)
I'll be reacquainting myself with it at work tomorrow. :D

A few months ago, I and other board members of Theater Artists Olympia were brainstorming ideas on fundraisers. Someone suggested an evening of scenes of the Shakespeare that TAO had performed over the years, and I added that we could also do songs from the musical versions...and mentioned the aforementioned CD. The idea was tabled, but I think several people liked the idea of the songs along with scenes.
