Good morning. It is too early to be awake.

Well, they've lowered it to 1.17 inches of rain coming. I have no idea where they expect it to come from, though.

Friday is a work day....and I am one YEAR and one day older.....
Thanks again everyone for the wonderful wishes - let's do it again next year.
I look forward to hearing how DR JOSE's day was.

Good morning, all! This morning, i have a date with Joshie at City Center at 10 am. He will help me make adjustments and changes to two Finale files I have. After that, I may stop at the new music shop of 57th Street for a browse before heading back uptown. I have a ticket to see a Fringe Festival show at 3:45, so then i'm off to the Village to see TERROR SUPERHIGHWAY, since a friend from Barnes & Noble, Tyler Moss, is appearng in it. I hope it's tolerable. You never know with Fringe.
Hopefully, that's my day. I have to get some work in on Mr Victor Herbert, so I'll spend my time between City Center and the Fringe on that.

Well, looks like there is some rain outside of town. Maybe it will get to us. Still don't think it's going to be that inch plus. That would be a tremendous amount of rain for us in one day.
-
Ah. Now it is down to .7 inches.
-
Soon it will be .0, which is what I would expect.
-
LOL....rain vibes for DR LAURA.

Off to work. Oh well.

I don't even have Henry Sweet Henry on LP.
I hope it's that but we won't know for sure for a couple of weeks

Of course, judging from the title of the Notes today it could be

DR Cillaliz re: your trial comments.
So the 5 people who testified against your client were all drug dealers and yet the jury believed them?
I guess you can only do as much as you can. I think to me success would depend partly on if I thought the client was guilty. If I knew he was guilty and then did my best and he was found guilty ... then you did your best. If he was innocent then it would be harder.

In prepping for my move I have been selling off all of my yard implements, potted plants, and yard decor, most of which has been purchased by co-workers. It certainly is nice to have that extra cash!!
I have a beautiful mid century modern hutch that I need to get rid of, but so far no takers. I will put it up on Craigslist this weekend and hope for the best.

If I was A Betting Man I Would Say It's : HERE'S WHERE I BELONG

As far as I know HERE'S WHERE I BELONG never got recorded (I have the demo), and I wouldn't exactly say EAST OF EDEN was a film comedy. ;)
-
One of HWIB's orchestrators, Norman Leyden, is the grand old man of the Portland music scene. I think he's in his 90s now. (I hope he isn't deceased LOL).
-
Hey everybody - it's Friday. Today we will feature laundry, cart building, grocery shopping, and decorating for my pal Sabrina's 40th birthday party at our place tomorrow. It will be a fiesta, so I'm going to go try and find a pinata for the festivities.
However, all you people out there in the dark, tomorrow is THE DAY. Auditions for Sunset Blvd, never thought this would ever happen - meaning - I'd be involved with a production of Sunset Blvd, let alone be music director. I am beyond excited, I don't think I'll sleep at all tonight. I know I know, you're tired of hearing about it... but really, what other group of people can understand my excitement?
-
Last night I sold Dog Bosco's dog house, which was kind of sad for me. But the guy ( a friend's nephew) who bought it brought over his new dog...a gorgeous, 4 month old female boxer with the most beautiful colorings I have ever seen.
She and Cat Freddy played quite a lot in the back yard while they were here. Well, mostly the dog played; running around Freddy and trying to get Freddy to play fetch. Freddy mostly sat on the lawn and watched her and occasionally let the dog know who was boss.
It was so much fun to watch this young dog, who was quite energetic, but very well behaved. I just fell in love with her. I think Fred did also, as he followed the dog all the way back to the pickup when they were leaving.

I need to wear my glasses more. I read DR MBarnum's post as "In prepping for my movie"....

Only problem is Bruce's aside " And I have to say, this show is generally thought of as not successful (it had a good run and I think it made money)." Henry Sweet Henry ran for all of two months. Could a show with that size cast possibly come close to breaking even in that short a time-span?

Just curious.
We'll have a special HHW housewarming/welcome BK party on November 12. Anyone is welcome to stay here with us overnight so they can attend the show on November 13. The more hardy of you may need to sleep on the floor. We have two pull out couches and a couple of other non-pull out couches where people could sleep.
-
WHOA! THATS A BIG CUPPA COFFEE!!!
-
If we have another housewarming, I'm sure Betsy will invite Larry and Rosie, so I'll keep you posted, Mike.
-
I guess Not-
EAST OF EDEN is certainly NOT a Comedy!!!!
-
Thank You for all the Birthday Wishes and the Welcome Backs!
-

That's a small at Starbucks.
-
Very good JMK.
I have always wanted to meet Larry, as I thought he was a wonderful newscaster back in the day.
Now that he is no longer a newcaster, I want to hear all the dope on what it was like working at KGW and find out what he really thinks about the news media.

DR Jennifer - As for yesterday's eating portion:
Nova and Cream Cheese on a Bagel with Red Onion, Tomato and Capers
Red Velvet Cake Truffle
Blueberry Cake Doughnut
Quattro Stagioni Pizza
Vongole (Clams) Pizza
Various Antipasti and Formaggio
Gelatl - The Strawberry was AMAZING!
Sorbetti - The Cucumber-Honeydew was even MORE AMAZING!
Spicy Beef Tendon
1000-Year Old Preserved Eggs in Hot Chili Oil
Dan-Dan Noodles
Green Chive Fried Rice
Lamb with Cumin and Szechuan Pepper Corns
Prosecco
Miso-Pickled Vegetables
Panzanella
More Cheese - including a totally decadent Petit Burrata served with Roasted Cherries Tomatoes and Pistachio Cream
Four Desserts
Another bottle of Prosecco
Yeah... I guess it was a good eating - and walking - day. ;)

I'm up, I'm up. I think it's already in the 90s.

I feel like I'm already in my 90s.
-
DR Matthew - Have you already decided how you're going to conduct the title song? Will you do it in "1", or "2+3", "3+2"? -And then there's that Opening!?!?!?
-
The label called Pear was a bootleg label - in fact, the fellow who did all those demo things and sound board releases on Pear posts under the name stevenstage on ATC.
-
DR Matthew - Have you already decided how you're going to conduct the title song? Will you do it in "1", or "2+3", "3+2"? -And then there's that Opening!?!?!?
It all depends where the groupings are. Thank fully it's either 2-3. or 3-2 - doing it in 1 might be an option, depending on my players!!! The opening is broken up into 4-3-4-2 most of the time. Certainly keeps you on your toes.
-
OK... Time to get back to Real Life for a couple of hours - and maybe even spend a few hours in Central Park... It's a GORGEOUS day here in NYC!
Laters...

I need to wear my glasses more. I read DR MBarnum's post as "In prepping for my movie"....
Well, there is that, too.
Only you need a bunch of quarters and a dark viewing booth to watch it. And maybe a raincoat.

Jesus H Christ! I just opened an envelope from my health insurance to find that in January 2011, my rates are increasing by $130/month! That's horrifying. And infuriating. Fuckin system.
-
TCB, we are *not* accepting health issues as an excused absence from the HHW get-together this fall. You are hereby commanded to get better soon and to stay that way. :)
-
To add to my frustration, I can neither find my ticket for the performance nor locate the notification from the broker that I bought a ticke. All I have is my bank statement with the deduction on 8/17. I guess I will wander down to the theatre and see what happens. After the health insurance news, I'm ready to kill, so this could be interesting.

So anyway - it seems that Jerry Bock and Sheldon Harnick wrote the Never Too Late Cha Cha for said show when it was on Broadway.....but other than the information that it was written....I don't know if it was ever recorded....
MAYBE by the Bryan Smith Dance Orchestra - a Brit outfit.
Does any HHW'er know anything else about thsi ditty?

Alice Playten?
You hang out with all the big celebs, DR ELMORE.....certainly the most talented ones.
I still remember her Alka Seltzer commercial.....when she kept making things for her husband that he couldn't eat.....

I am supposed to go to the circus tonight. I hope it goes okay. I am a little concerned because most of the seats are benches (which i do not think will be good for my back). I do remember when i went 2 years ago that there were seats with backs in the first row or two. Fingers crossed for that.

I found my CD of the previous release of my guess and there's a LOT of reverb. If I've guessed the correct recording, I can't wait to hear BK's "patented special verb."
-
So that's the Topic of the Day: in my CD player is the first (and so far only) CD release of what I think will be BK's next Kritzerland cast album release!

And right after that will be Billy Barnes' L.A., which has just arrived!

Day 2 of cardiac rehab went well. Having an audiobook made the time fly and the routine was familiar. One of the attending nurses was our next-door neighbor, to whom we haven't spoken since Richard visited the city prosecutor about the barking dogs she used to leave out all night. He discovered that she had a thick file of complaints from us and the neighbors on the other side and behind. Those dogs eventually died (yes, of natural causes) and the ones she has now don't stay out all night. She didn't try to kill me on the treadmill and it was all quite civil.

Who doesn't? Carol Channing, Mel Brooks, Sheldon Harnick, Rosie Grier, and Harry Belafonte - what an embarrassment of talent...
Saw an off-Broadway production a few centuries ago with (among others) Daphne Rubin-Vega and Debbie Gravitte: not Shakespeare by any stretch of the imagination, but much fun nonetheless...

Pianist won't even be here when he originally said, which was 2:30 - now it's three. Which means I don't eat till 3:15. I've been pricing out authoring and replicating blu-ray - not as cheap as DVD but not completely horrendous. If we end up doing this blu-ray thing, we'll also include a DVD in the package, since the cost of doing so is almost negligible.

The big question, of course, is can we sell enough to cover my costs.

And now for something completely different...how's this for an "epic fail"??
An NFL cheerleader who thought she had won $11 million in a defamation judgment against a gossip website may have the result nullified because her lawyers sued the wrong company (http://www.comcast.net/articles/sports-general/20100827/Cheerleader-Error/)!!

My friend Tyler is quite a good young actor, but I thought the play was kind of a mess. It's all about a "terrorist" agency interrogating a rather sad nebbish who's sent money to "Sophia," a lady he's met online through a dating service. She claims to be stuck in Kenya after being robbed in her hotel, but it turns out "Sophia" is a front for terrorist funding and my friend Tyler has been dragged into the agency for terrorist activity. The play had good actors and good direction and a script that couldn't decide if it were Kafka, an indictment of the Patriot Act and its often ridiculous and insulting crimes against humanity, or what. I found its conclusion very frustrating, and thought when the lights went down that we were ready for scene three!

DR Jennifer, the government always argues that who but drug dealers will know drug dealers. A couple were totally unbelievable, but a number were pretty credible. When you have 5 saying they were in a conspiracy with someone, it gets harder to say they are all lying

TOD:
DVD: "Valley of the Dolls," "Bad Girls of Film Noir, Vol. 1"
CD: "Henry, Sweet Henry" (now that most everybody's mentioned it) and "Sondheim Goes to the Movies"
Car CD: Disc 23 of "Anna Karenina"
Book: "Cancel All Our Vows," a John D. MacDonald that I found recently and hadn't read.

Can anyone tell me the name of the movie where Groucho and the others are all cramming into a small room -- maybe on a boat? Or a train?
Night at the Opera (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZvugebaT6Q)?
That was the movie. Watched it the other day.

Pianist won't even be here when he originally said, which was 2:30 - now it's three. Which means I don't eat till 3:15. I've been pricing out authoring and replicating blu-ray - not as cheap as DVD but not completely horrendous. If we end up doing this blu-ray thing, we'll also include a DVD in the package, since the cost of doing so is almost negligible.
BK, has this ever been on DVD before or is it the first ever release, at all?
First release.
I was going to guess "Sugar" but not now. That's on CD.
John, BK did say that the newest cast album that he's going to release was released on CD before. I was asking (above) about the movie that will be Kritzerland's first Blu-Ray release.

Scrambled brains trying to play catch-up. So, "Sugar" is my guess. If Mitch Miller produced it.

So, today Edith and I were working hard to reorganize things at the office and catch up. I knew I had a hearing at 3:00 so I was winding up some things about 2:30 when I get a call from the court asking why I'm not there for the 2:30 hearing. I said I thought it was at 3:00 and literally ran to the courthouse. I got there only to discover that I was not the lawyer on the 2:30 hearing after all. What a crazy week.
-
The big question, of course, is can we sell enough to cover my costs.
If this is the product you told me about at Jerry's, I wonder the same thing, since you said you feared the "related" CD won't be a barnburner, and that CD may have more name value, limited though it is, to the public at large.

Last night I sold Dog Bosco's dog house, which was kind of sad for me. But the guy ( a friend's nephew) who bought it brought over his new dog...a gorgeous, 4 month old female boxer with the most beautiful colorings I have ever seen.
She and Cat Freddy played quite a lot in the back yard while they were here. Well, mostly the dog played; running around Freddy and trying to get Freddy to play fetch. Freddy mostly sat on the lawn and watched her and occasionally let the dog know who was boss.
It was so much fun to watch this young dog, who was quite energetic, but very well behaved. I just fell in love with her. I think Fred did also, as he followed the dog all the way back to the pickup when they were leaving.
Awww ad hugs.

I will say that going through the past few weeks has made the working relationship between Edith and I much stronger. That is a very good thing

Tonight is movie night in my friends' back yard. I'm really looking forward to a couple beers, kicking back with some friends and watching "Being There"

I am supposed to go to the circus tonight. I hope it goes okay. I am a little concerned because most of the seats are benches (which i do not think will be good for my back). I do remember when i went 2 years ago that there were seats with backs in the first row or two. Fingers crossed for that.
I guess I'm too late to suggest taking a cushion to sit on. I hope your back did ok.

Day 2 of cardiac rehab went well. Having an audiobook made the time fly and the routine was familiar. One of the attending nurses was our next-door neighbor, to whom we haven't spoken since Richard visited the city prosecutor about the barking dogs she used to leave out all night. He discovered that she had a thick file of complaints from us and the neighbors on the other side and behind. Those dogs eventually died (yes, of natural causes) and the ones she has now don't stay out all night. She didn't try to kill me on the treadmill and it was all quite civil.
I'm glad your rehab went well and the neighbor was civil. :)

Jesus H Christ! I just opened an envelope from my health insurance to find that in January 2011, my rates are increasing by $130/month! That's horrifying. And infuriating. Fuckin system.
Am facing the same real soon. And still no job prospects. Ugh.
JOB VIBES & HAVING MONEY TO PAY THE INSURANCE BILLS FOR YOU BOTH!!!

DR JMK, when are you having a housewarming?
And, will Larry Shoop be there?
Just curious.
We'll have a special HHW housewarming/welcome BK party on November 12. Anyone is welcome to stay here with us overnight so they can attend the show on November 13. The more hardy of you may need to sleep on the floor. We have two pull out couches and a couple of other non-pull out couches where people could sleep.
Thank you for the offer. I won't know until closer to the event if we can go. What time on the 13th?

The DVD/Blu-Ray talk is about something wholly other than our CD release.

I really wish R&H would keep me apprised of these productions - this one sounds a little odd to me - when they can't even spell my name right, or the names of the two leading characters.

I need a great, amazing young gal singer. Kind of like Juliana A. Hansen (she's not in town), preferably between 18 and 25. They need to not only be a great singer but also should be able to act a lyric. This is for the Unsung Musicals show in October. If anyone has any thoughts about anyone (LA preferable) let me know.

Keith found three photos of my father on Ancestry.com. This one of him on the USC tennis team is my favorite. He is in the middle of the top row. I wish the photo were easier to see.

Vibes to Michelle Nicastro.
bk, I can remember the first time I ever ran into you on the internet, in the #Broadway chatroom on IRC. I mentioned that I had been trying to get the 3 Michelle Nicastro CD's and none of the stores in the area were carrying them. You gave me the number for Varese and told me to call them and mention your name and have them send them to me. When I called Varese, no questions were asked and the CD's were sent. I still listen to those CD's as they are some of my favorite Disney "covers" I've heard.

See, I can be a nice guy, despite what some multi-registered types think.

MEGAVIBES TO DR TCB. If you have what I've had the last few weeks--yes, a "flu-like crap"--do please take it seriously. It was AWFUL. I relapsed twice. My usual remedies didn't help--most unusual; the thing that finally did so was echincea. Please GET WELL SOON!

The late Richard Valley's (Scarlet Street) mother is selling his stuff on eBay.

DR Ginny - RE: Your iTunes problem
Sometimes some albums can "separate" due to how the track and album information was entered. Cast albums seem to have this problem a lot since each track can have a different artist(s), but then there is no "Album Artist" information entered - like "Original Cast", "Various Artists", etc. So...
The next time that happens - if it does - the easiest(?) way to fix it is to click on the "Album" header in iTunes until "Album by Year" comes up. That will hopefully bring all the Album's tracks "together". Then multi-select all of those tracks, then click Apple-I to bring up the Album Info box. Most likely, there will be no information in the "Album Artist" field, so, just enter an "Album Artist" (Various Artists, Original Broadway Cast, etc.). That should fix it.
