Good morning, all!

I dreamed about Mary Rodgers and a painting hanging crookedly in her apartment. Then I dreamed it was July Fourth and my physical therapist Jen and I were looking for a really good rooftop location to watch the fireworks.

This morning, I am meeting our DR KevinH at his hotel before I run down to Toyland to print out some scores, grab a few books, and head back uptown. I need to finish the PAINT YOUR WAGON work for Josh so I can hand it in on Monday and get the next round of scores.

Greetings from Toyland! I had a 3-hour breakfast with DR KevinH and one of his visiting friends. It was quite delightful.

Then i walked to 34th and Seventh and caught a bus here. Traffic is once again screwed up in midtown, partly because of rain, partly because of a parade, I hear, and partly because our previous Mayor Bloomberg continued to screw up traffic after Giuliani, and it's a mess getting around.

I've finished my printing and i will shortly head home.

I'm going to buy it.  It's not so much that I loved the show (I really didn't), but I feel that I want to support (almost) ANY preservation of live theater that is made available for purchase.  I liked it (on a certain level ;) ) and really want more theatrical productions filmed and put on DVD/Blu-ray.

On Thursday I had an exercise echocardiogram. I'd had an exercise EKG, ie, a treadmill stress test, several years ago, but this one includes ultrasound images of the heart. I won't have the full results until late next week, but there were no problems during the test itself, which is certainly a good sign.

I'm (again) running the sound board and will have to help set up the sound board program.  Someone else compiled all the sound files, but doesn't know the program very well.  I used it for the last show, so I'm a little more familiar with it...but not by much.

I sold my beloved old Volvo this week. Once I purchased the Audi I had to park the Volvo on the street. (Audi gets my assigned parking spot.) Street parking is very limited in my 'hood. In the two months that I parked on the street the car was vandalized TWICE, amounting to roughly $1000 damage. I moved the car to a friend's house in Culver City--safer, but not exactly convenient, as I had to move it from one side of the street to the other two days a week. My poor Volvo had become a real liability.

I know a mechanic who buys old Volvos, fixes them up, and then sells them. He only works on Volvos. I didn't really think he'd want my car, because it needs some body work, but when I approached him he was immediately interested. My old car will soon have a new life--and it deserves it. I'm very pleased with this outcome and VERY relieved that I don't have to keep moving the car.

Chas, I'm living in the Sawtelle area. I never knew of this area to have problems--in fact, I'd expect less crime than usual because of the extensive Japanese population. But there is certainly vandalism.

I scoured the Palms area for an apartment a few years ago. It is now a VERY high-density area. Next to impossible to find parking on the street. In my view, density is a big part of the problem--more noise, less parking, more conflicts. Some of the newer buildings may be quiet due to additional insulation, but I suspect you'd not be as happy there now.

I agree with you: it is indeed disheartening. I mourn the loss of open space. I suspect everyone needs it and all this overcrowding just isn't healthy. At least most of us have AC now. People stay indoors, windows closed, in hot weather. It's quieter and less stressful.

Singdaw, "Nice Work" was fun. I really enjoyed the band, and the music was far and away the best part. The cast was fine, the book was lousy and the dancing was both good and bad, thanks to some erratic choreography from Kathleen Marshall.

I actually enjoyed this production better than a bootleg I saw of the original Broadway cast.

Congrats on selling the car!  A friend had her Volvo for nearly 15 years -- never caused her any problem.  With more Grandchildren --- she had to sell, not enough room! 

Vandalized twice, how scary.  I guess I take it for granted that I can park my car in the garage.  May you enjoy the Audi :D

We just got our first good review from Max Preeo on the Cast recording List:
Tuesday, October 7, New World Records releases the splendid new two-CD
studio recording of Jerome Kern and Otto Harbach's ROBERTA, reconstructed by
Larry Moore, providing a revelation of how its creators integrated the music
and book.  It is presented as a "radio play," with dialogue (lengthier
sections are indexed so they can be skipped) that gives a complete
understanding of how the show worked on its opening night in 1933.  Of
course all the now-familiar songs, such as "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes,"
"You're Devastating," "Let's Begin," "I'll Be Hard to Handle," "Something
Had to Happen" and more are here, as well as previously unrecorded reprises,
"Hot Spot" and "Clemintina," dance music and underscore.  An appendix has
the cut "Armful of Trouble" and "I Won't Dance" and "Lovely to Look At," as
sung in the 1935 film version, with a lovely uninterrupted "Smoke Gets in
Your Eyes."  Everything is well sung/performed by a cast including Annalene
Beechey, Patrick Cummings, Jason Graae, Kim Criswell,  and Diana Montague,
with Rob Berman lading the Orchestra of Ireland through Robert Russell
Bennett's orchestrations (painstakingly reconstructed/reorchestrated by
Larry, fully detailed in the set's booklet).

Thank you, all, for the vibes.  I survived attending a lecture at the public library and delivering some meds to Mom.  Getting into and out of the car is the biggest challenge, but otherwise I wasn't too uncomfortable.  Fr. Richard has excused me from the trip to Lima tomorrow, for which I'm very grateful.

I am sure that DR vixmom will be first in line to purchase a copy.        :)

Good. I'll have to miss it at the theater. I forgot Ringo Starr was Tuesday night.

Topic of the Day (just a few of MANY):

The Best of Times
I Don't Want to Know
If He Walked Into My Life
It's Today/Show Tune
Look What Happened To Mabel
Put on Your Sunday Clothes

Song on the Sand
Time Heals Everything
Two a Day
Wherever He Ain't


Somehow your list reminded me of a another favorite: Just Go to the Movies

We just got our first good review from Max Preeo on the Cast recording List:
Tuesday, October 7, New World Records releases the splendid new two-CD
studio recording of Jerome Kern and Otto Harbach's ROBERTA, reconstructed by
Larry Moore, providing a revelation of how its creators integrated the music
and book.  It is presented as a "radio play," with dialogue (lengthier
sections are indexed so they can be skipped) that gives a complete
understanding of how the show worked on its opening night in 1933.  Of
course all the now-familiar songs, such as "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes,"
"You're Devastating," "Let's Begin," "I'll Be Hard to Handle," "Something
Had to Happen" and more are here, as well as previously unrecorded reprises,
"Hot Spot" and "Clemintina," dance music and underscore.  An appendix has
the cut "Armful of Trouble" and "I Won't Dance" and "Lovely to Look At," as
sung in the 1935 film version, with a lovely uninterrupted "Smoke Gets in
Your Eyes."  Everything is well sung/performed by a cast including Annalene
Beechey, Patrick Cummings, Jason Graae, Kim Criswell,  and Diana Montague,
with Rob Berman lading the Orchestra of Ireland through Robert Russell
Bennett's orchestrations (painstakingly reconstructed/reorchestrated by
Larry, fully detailed in the set's booklet).



High praise indeed, DR Elmore!

I found an obit that said "By the end, she was virtually confined to a wheelchair—the result, she once said, of an accident suffered in the late '80s while she was dancing on tour in Australia".

Had a really good stumble-through - one song was rough in terms of lyrics, but the two singers involved know what work they have to do to get it down pat and I know they will.  Then had some food at Stanley's.  I guess since I hadn't eaten in twenty-four hours my stomach was not prepared to ingest that much food - I had a small Caesar and baked penne pasta with no meat - not really that much food but I thought I was going to die I was so full.  However, it never occurred to me to stop eating.

Actually, I didn't do too much.  At first, I was just following along with the script while the stage manager and the lighting/sound designer and the director talked through everything, but after about 15 pages, I realized that my time could be better spent trying to figure out the sound board program.  Fortunately, I was able to. 
Title: Re: ENORMOUS MAGNITUDE
Post by: George on October 04, 2014, 11:29:58 PM
For the most part, it was pretty easy.  The cues will mainly just bring up the sound and then fade the sound, and we probably won't have more than a dozen cues. 
Title: Re: ENORMOUS MAGNITUDE
