More crossed fingers and positive thoughts to DR Elmore re the leasing decisions.

Good Morning!

I'm up, I'm up...

And I've already had my blueberry-vanilla-protein smoothie - my "bowl of oatmeal" stand-in for this morning, and I've already made a quick run to the store for some groceries. And in a little while I'll get my brief workout in, and then get ready to head to the theatre for me matinee.

And as for The Tonys...

There's a slight chance I may end up going tonight. A friend just called, and he may have to give up his ticket since he woke up today not feeling too well. Ah, well. He's going to take it easy today, and then check back in with me later. So, we'll see what happens. If it does, great - my tux is ready to go! If not, I know I'll still have a good time watching it on TV. -Which is sort of what I'd prefer to do anyway this year. Although I will miss the video presentations during the commercial breaks.

And as for The Tonys (Part Deux)...

This must be "party weekend". I have two friends who are having non-Tony-related parties tonight. And I guess I should make an appearance at at least one of them. However, they know I'll probably be watching the ceremony at home, but since both parties aren't due to start until 9:00, I may head on out after the broadcast, the East Coast (Live) Broadcast.

So, if I happen to miss the West Coast (Tape Delayed) Broadcast... Bitch-Slap me why dontcha!

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #65 on:** June 10, 2007, 08:01:04 AM »

And speaking of The Tonys (Part Tres)...

I had forgotten that even though tonight is the night that Broadway honors itself, that there are still show running tonight: Avenue Q, Rent, Mamma Mia!, etc.

I guess the show does have to go on.

*Although, I'm wondering how many extra understudy inserts will be in Playbills tonight.

JoseSPiano · « **Reply #66 on:** June 10, 2007, 08:05:31 AM »

And as for The Tonys... (Part Four)

As for my predictions... Well, I'm just really curious how the races for Best Lead Actress in a Musical, Best Lead Actor in a Musical, Best Score of a Musical, and Best Book of a Musical are gonna turn out. They really all seem a bit close to call right now. And even the pundits can't seem to come the same conclusions as their fellow pundits.

*And I'm wondering under what "theme" they will be presenting Fantasia singing from The Color Purple especially after the brou-haha of Legally Blonde and LoveMusik not getting to perform.

Yep. Now on summer schedule.

My piano playing this morning was not an unmitigated disaster.

However, I'm very glad that DR JoseSPiano was not within earshot.

Matt H. · « **Reply #70 on:** June 10, 2007, 08:11:08 AM »

Since I have a DSL connection, I should be able to watch the first hour of the TOnys on-line tonight. At least, I'm going to try.

Okay, plans change. I'm sitting here transcribing newspaper articles and my pencilled notes from newspapers of 1903-1906 and 1912-1914 so I will not head down to Toyland this morning, I may send an email to the Chairman of the Board for the Institute inquiring on the lease. Our rental agent believes that if the lease is signed by tomorrow evening we'll beat out the other potential tenant who was sent a lease on Friday evening. Oy! It's ridiculous.

Around 1:30, I'll head off to Charlotte's recital. I have a card for her. and I need to write a check to include with it.

I'm up, I'm up. More Tony predictions please. Am amused and nauseated to see they're giving book and score on the pre-broadcast portion - as if those were throwaway categories - the Tony Award broadcasts, which used to have some dignity in the early days, have lost all semblance of class and they should be put out to pasture as a network event.

bk · « **Reply #77 on:** June 10, 2007, 08:30:06 AM »

Am enjoying Mr. Pulliam's ravings, especially about the colors - while The Searchers, for example, may be gloriously sharp, it's "glorious" colors are completely off and incorrect and look nothing like they should. And unless Oh, What A Lovely War changes prints after thirty minutes, its colors were quite faded if memory serves. I'll have to check out the rest of the transfer.

bk · « **Reply #78 on:** June 10, 2007, 08:31:07 AM »

So, I guess it will be fair to announce the Tony winners in all pre-broadcast categories as they happen.

Shayne, if you could do high quality grabs from those DVDs and put them on a CD, that would be great.

Well, it was on UPN (or the WB, one of the two) and they obviously didn't KNOW it was brilliant and surreal until folks started writing about it on the internet. After they realized it had more to it than dumb blondes and sexy talk they shut it down pronto!

How could any show with characters like "Sugar" and "Precious Woo" NOT be renewed?

I often need a Mary Cherry fix....or a Cherry Cherry fix...or a Nicole Julian bitch-slap.

The show is a TOTAL WALLOW!

POPULAR is so perverse I don't know how I missed it's initial run! The wedding episode's parodies of Whatever Happened to Baby Jane were completely surreal; I cannot imagine anyone believing the aimed-for audience remotely knew the film and got the jokes, and the mockery, such as the BEVERLY HILLS 90210 penchant for casting mid-20 to early 30 year-old actrors as 10th grade students(!!!), is amazing in itself. In that respect, it's kind of like a demented PEANUTS comic strip with 16 year-olds being the microcosm instead of pre-schoolers. The writing for the psycho Mary Cherry is insane but casting Delta Burke as her mother Cherry Cherry goes into the stratosphere of inspiration.

This has turned out to be a very heavily scheduled day.... not a normal relaxing Sunday for me, oh no, not relaxing and normal.

I have an important appointment at 3:00 this afternoon with my CPA, then have to meet a couple of people at 4:15 PM to discuss some things, and then I have to pick up a young musician friend of mine (at 7:30 PM) who is visiting for a few days here in Phoenix. He is doing some music work here, and he is staying at my place and I offered to help him with his work and drive him while he's here.

And Elmo, TCB, OzTom, and the PianoTemptress,.... get those thoughts and comments out of your head. This lad is one of my 2 "adopted music kids" -- they are both brilliant young players (in the field that I worked in), both live in England, and are also both 2 of the nicest, talented, and warmest human beings that you could hope to meet. So, no incest here, thank you.

The only problem is, I don't know if I can be here for the Tony fun and festivities. I remember back to Oscar night, and that was truly manic, outrageous, lightning-fast posting that was going on that night!!

I will be shocked beyond redemption if SPRING AWAKENING doesn't win Best Musical.

I think CURTAINS will win Best Book and SPRING AWAKENING Best Score.

Musical Actors/Actress: Raul Esparza and CHristine Ebersole.

Jerry Mitchell will win Best Choreography for LEGALLY BLONDE and Michael Meyer will win Best Director for SPRING AWAKENING.

and then I believe BRIDGE TO TERIBITHIA will come next.

A Disney movie will seem such a pleasurable vacation after yesterday's movie horrors.

Restock your pile of Kleenex boxes first.
