You ever did see.
On Halloween
I dressed up as me!

The omens are lousy this morning.  I missed the alarm and that put me 45 minutes behind this morning's schedule.  I must be out of her for my schlep to East 22nd street by 8:45,  The computer is behaving very badly this morning, I've had to reboot it twice, but it's currently behaving.

DR LAURA I usually start talking to Birdy Barnum - and turn on the light if the sun isn't up....then I take off the cage cover....continue talking....and then he has fresh water from the bottle and fresh food....he hops around a bit and within fifteen minutes, he has eaten a bit and had a drink and is talking and talking and singing.....

Then he gets in his attic looks out the window and enjoys the view...

ASK BK

I just saw that there are now High School editions of West Side Story and Chicago. The former I don't understand as high school have been doing it without a water downed version. As for Chicago "..a story about murder, greed, corruption, violence, exploration, adultery, and treachery. All the things we hold near and dear to our hearts" It is definitely an adult musical and making it for kids takes away what the story is all about,

What do you think about High School editions of musicals?

Kid friendly Chicago. It's the teachers - they all are eighties kids usually.  They think doing all this stuff is relevant for the kids.  But the kids need to learn the classics to but they don't because now it's all Hunchback, Spring Awakening, Chorus Line, Shrek, and other dreck.

That's funny!  Of course, it would be funnier without an audience that hoots and hollers louder the singers. ::) And a lot funnier with adult performers.  They'd really know how to perform the song...even though they're child characters.

I saved my mall errands for today hoping to see some Halloween costumes.  I wore my cute "This is my costume t-shirt"  Mostly I saw shirts similar, but not as cute, and pumpkin shirts.  I did see a few children in costumes and a few adults which is a whole lot more than I would have seen around here.

I picked up some packages, went to Gelson's and got two chicken enchiladas and two chicken tenders for the meal o' the day, came home, ate it all up, and then listened to two CDs of Michael Conway Baker that are every bit as beautiful and melodic as his ballet Washington Square.  The guy speaks my musical language.  We're e-mailing back and forth, and because one of the things I heard today seems to have only been a promotional CD I've asked if he wants us to put it out in better packaging.

Danny Thomas is funny - but not as funny as the monkeys and Jack.  I laughed so hard I almost fell off my chair.

It was great thanks to Jack.

Mom and Dad are home. They never admitted him but after an IV, he seems to be doing better. That’s all I know. Thank you for your concern.

You must be relieved.  I am sorry you don't know more.  He may have just been slightly dehydrated.

Sounds good except I would prefer cheese.

I over indulged in chocolate ice cream.  I am beginning to pay the price but it sure was good.

If anyone is interested, Ms. Streisand is promoting her new album, which will be released Friday.  She'll be on Good Morning America tomorrow, James Corden's show Thursday night/Friday morning and Bill Maher's show Friday.  She's actually doing Carpool Karaoke with Corden.

Listening to music.  Tried to watch a failed TV pilot that was expanded to feature length by adding scenes and twenty-eight minutes - bad idea.  Fell asleep three times.

Some trick or treaters, but I must say I did not miss the 500 kids from Studio City's crazy Halloween.  At the most there were maybe twenty or twenty-five kids the entire evening.

I wish we had even 1 trick or treater.

Do you have a lot of treats leftover or were you expecting the small number of children?
Title: Re: SCARY HALLOWEEN NOTES
Post by: FJL on October 31, 2018, 10:21:41 PM
I have nothing to say.

Or at least, what I have to say is not what HHW is for.

I was watching carefully to make sure no trick or treaters stepped out into traffic

It was lucky I was watching out, less than 10 yards from my driveway, a giant buck deer walked out across the street right in front of my car.

Because dad assumed that he had the right of way.

I stopped, so I guess he assumed correctly.

Of course, I'm not performing in this show, I just did the props and will usher, but thanks just the same! :D


Break a leg vibes apply to all members of the production, not just the actors.

Well, I'm off to the theater!  It's opening night and I have no idea what the crowd will be like.  I'd heard that "it's selling well," but how well is the question. ;)

Be back later!

It was a great opening night with a GREAT audience!

The audience did a LOT of the movie call-backs.

I was up in the balcony, so I couldn't understand everything that was shouted.
Title: Re: SCARY HALLOWEEN NOTES
Post by: George on October 31, 2018, 11:56:29 PM
Of course, my lack of understanding wasn't just because I was up in the balcony. ::)
Title: Re: SCARY HALLOWEEN NOTES

Some people just yelled so quickly, or not loudly enough, so there were other factors.

The two guys behind the stage operating each door couldn't see each other, so they weren't coordinated to open and close each side at the same time.

And Brad's mic went out in the middle of the second act and wasn't able to be fixed, but the actor was able to project enough so that even up in the baIcony, I was able to hear most of what he said and sang.
