THE DIP IN THE ROAD

Well, you've read the notes, the notes veered to the right and were still dippy, and now it is time for you to post until the dippy cows come home.

Great news about Cabaret!  Our audience last night was wonderful!  There were quite a few people who have worked with TAO, so they are actors and also got Shakespeare...that's always a good thing.  There was a lot of laughter during the show.  The show went a little long, about 10 minutes longer than last night, but that wasn't so bad because the audience still loved it.

We went to Jerry's Deli, where we were told it was a twenty-five minute wait.  We beat it out of there and went to Du-Par's.  I had a club sandich, a salad, and fries.  Miss Adriana Patti had something called chicken strips, Miss Karen had something called scrambled eggs, and Mr. Murphy had a hamburger.

Stats for June - our third highest posting month ever (not bad!) and, surprisingly, our best month ever for hits (over 170,000 of 'em).

Well, I must (finally) be getting to bed.  I have a performance in about 11 hours!  Good night, BK.

Thanks to all for their continued theatre reports!  Glad our two performing DRs had great shows.  Glad we will eventually be able to see the Company revival in our own homes - though a video never really captures the true experience of being there in the theatre.  Will be anxious to hear DR MBarnum's impressions of Broadway.

Questions for DRs to answer if they wish. (We've been down this or similar roads before)
I wonder what are the best selling film soundtracks other than those associated with song scores or adaptations of classical music.

Which soundtracks really captured the public imagination as "Stand Alone" albums that the general public really played as they would have a "regular" album. I'm guessing "Doctor Zhivago" would be way up in the list. Maybe "Midnight Express" as well. I tend not to play Cds of Soundtracks very often (except for adaptations and song filled ones), but "The Mission" and "Caravans" certainly are played often.

I guess I'd like to see the Broadcast of "Company" though I still find the whole idea of this version offputting.  I quite enjoy the recorded version from a London production a few years back. (The Donmar one?) I certainly had no desire to see the "new" Sweeney Todd.

Good morning, DR Tomovoz and all! I was awake at 6:45 after dreams about buying new office supplies for my desk. I also have a vague memory of the dream's ending in a live television program like "The Price Is Right," but it's too vague.

I have to be in Toyland around 9:30, so I'm enjoying a liesurely morning and listening to Dvorak's Mass in D. Now that DR MBarnum has abandoned me for DR Rodzinski,  I'm back to self-employment mode: I have to dig out of the rubble a score to be proofed for my publisher and I have some work to commence for Mr Kevin Spirtas.

DR tomovoz, I would guess "Around the World In Eighty Days."

My bigggest pet peeve: people who insist on conducting their private business, battles, affairs, etc loudly and publicly on cell phones.

In the 1980's my biggest pet peeve was women who could not  differentiate between good manners and sexism. Now I would think it would be cell phone "Behaviour".

I guess Dvorak would have been suitable for the not to be burlap sack incident.

Good morning, Tom, Larry and Jack.

Are we really going to be deprived of JRand's dashing avatar soon?  Tell me it's not true (almost a Blood Brothjers reference)

Blood Brothjers is, of course, the Swedish version of Blood Brothers.

No doubt DR td has the Swedish cast album too. (An allan key would be necessary to release it from its ikea case)

Good morning DR TOMovOZ, ELMORE, and FJL.

I am working on an even more exciting one, DR FJL....although it will probably show the real me TODAY....in which case it will be like the ending of THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY

I think a lot of people played THE SOUND OF MUSIC soundtrack much like a regular album.
