Bruce & everyone in the L.A. area, please read the following carefully.

I hate planning trips to L.A. I can easily name 50-100 people I want to see. Naturally this is impossible which causes me great stress & sleepless nights trying to figure out who I can see on each trip, and then organizing it so we aren’t driving back and forth between counties.

Going for our reunions makes life easier, all those people in one room at one stop. But then there are always more invitations, where Sherlock is also welcomed, to stay with people next time we are in town. Unfortunately none of them live near Keith’s mother, and as usual we shall have to pass on them.

This visit is to spend time with Mom. We will stop in Saugus & Thousand Oaks, and maybe Agoura to see my cousin, on the way down. Once in West L.A. we will basically be with family. I’m already feeling guilty I will once again miss visiting with a good portion of friends, including a few older ones I’m concerned about. And of course this sadly includes planning a HHW gathering. Hopefully next time, someplace where Sherlock can also be included.

DR elmore - Are we still on for "Hot Fuzz" this afternoon?

Where is your phone? I just left you another message?

So...are you saying that those of "us" who are talking about it so avidly and with great admiration of it cannot possibly have any taste when it comes to such things.

Well, it looks like someone completely rewrote his original post.

No more "Lost" talk.

Speaking of "No More," Sondheim's song is incorrectly listed as being from The Frogs - instead of from Into the Woods - in the liner notes to Barbara Cook's new CD.

Also, "Lover, Come Back to Me" is incorrectly attributed to Richard Rodgers [should be Sigmund Romberg].

And Romberg stole it from Tchaikovsky.

On a politically incorrect note, has anyone seen this very funny and rude precis of the current Roundabout production?

Yes...I post, and then re-think in terms of whether I've said it correctly...or whether I've come off snarky...and I change it.

And then, I discover someone has been responding to the original...and there I am with muck all over the place.

Jane · « **Reply #278 on:** May 24, 2007, 11:15:25 AM »

Great news!

I just called Danise. She reconnected with her family & is with her nieces and ex sister-in-law.

I am so happy for her!!!!!!

Our conversation was very brief, I feel lucky she answered the phone long enough to give me the good news.

Happy is big enough, I'm thrilled for her!

Look at some of the other abridged plays in the left column: the one for LOVEMUSIK is hysterical.

Why do they keep calling the place where the contestants on SHEAR DESIGN are living the Loft.....when it is a one story - ground floor residence?

I am still frozen from my root canal.
Took pain killers ahead of time just in case.

I am bookmarking that link, DR ELMORE.

Hmmmm....no word....I guess I am running the lightboard for A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM but will not make an appearance onstage.

Hey, NO LINES TO LEARN....but it may be painful to watch!

Better cancel the recording session.

Any of the New Yorks going to the revival of GASLIGHT at the York Theater? The NY Times gave it a great review.

David Staller who has recorded a couple of cast albums AFTER THE BALL & AFTER THE FAIR is the male lead.

Michael · « **Reply #292 on:** May 24, 2007, 11:32:04 AM »

Can "albums" still be correctly used describing a recording on cd? Or is an album specifically denoting a LP record release?

I am so glad that we have a three-day weekend coming up. I was going to turn mine into a four-day event, but decided to save my leave time for June.

I will be going to ~~Lost Wages~~ Las Vegas at the end of June. While there, I will be attending a perfromance of PHANTOM - THE LAS VEGAS SPECTACULAR, starring the WSMA! Yeah!

Kevin Spacey is in Phantom?

An album is a collection of things.

A CD can be an album in the same way that an LP is an album.

Interestingly enough, a number of CD labels out there still use the term "Records" in their names, which I'm guessing isn't incorrect, either, since a CD is a "recording" in the same sense that an LP is a "recording."

It's a "record" of a collection of songs produced for an "album."

Just don't call CDs "vinyl" or "LPs" and things ought to work out.
