It seems imperative to me that the bass, drums, and keyboard 1, being the rhythm section, should be close together to keep the ensemble tight.  Heather thinks it can be worked out, but the MD is the one who has to be happy.

That is not the way it was done in LA, elmore - keyboard one was as far away from the drums as a keyboard could be and the bass was between drums and keyboard two.

There was no aisle for the actors between the drums & bass and the keyboard either! Nor were they lined up like little ducks in a row.  And that is why Mr Goldberg should be here determining the space.

They won't be "lined up" they'll be angled in towards center and should have good sight lines.  I've told the set gal to e-mail Larry, since he has lovely e-mail access wherever it is he is.

The band will actually be closer together in the Acorn, despite the aisle - much smaller space.

Mr Goldberg is in Scotland and dumped the problem back into my lap.
As I wrote earlier, Heather and I are fine about things.  We spoke on the phone and things will be worked out.

And they are?

I think it's great for networking but I must admit the constant barrage of whores working the site is a bit irritating.  I suppose some folk get a kick out of it.

Last night's TV had interviews etc with a group attempting to put a stop the use of pre teens as models and the sexualisation of youngsters as marketing "objects". Of course the advertising agents and magazines are claiming they are just reflecting popular culture and not influencing and creating it!

At least pressure as led to a 15 year old NOT being used as Model of the year or whatever the title is.

The anti group has created a magazine and internet information site using models explaining how photos of their own body images have been altered (scupltured) by the agencies etc and the "real them" often does not have the same "structure".

The "soft porn" of billboards and video music clips is being targeted.

I love those Oscar winners that are so "sing-a-long". Why doesn't Andy Williams do albums of those any more?
