DR TCB - I have not heard of this lawsuit business, but I have heard that Christian was injured during a performance this week on DWTS.

Break leg vibes to BRAINEX.

And a welcome to new DR VIXTER.

The other day I asked about ADDING MACHINE & INTO THE HEIGHTS. I expected at least one New Yorker to have a comment? I'm thinking my post was missed and tickets need to be purchased.

I think you just asked about the shows yesterday... In any case...

DRs elmore and FJL just saw The Adding Machine - and commented about it - and liked it. I saw the show a couple of weeks ago, and liked it to. It's definitely not something "traditional", so...

As for In The Heights... It's a good show. Very high energy, very Latin, very New York - and for some people, very loud. I'd suggest going t the show's website and listening and viewing some of the clips.

Here are the NYTimes reviews for each show:

Thanks DR Jose. I just got my "search" to work. If it had done so sooner I wouldn't have been a pest about this.

I will pass along your comments and the reviews. Again, thank you.

What is the lawsuit? (re: cristian de la fuente?).

Anyhow he is still on DANCING WITH THE STARS. HE hurt his arm dancing this week and has to have an operation. But his doctor said it could wait till after the show is over.

I'm so very sleepy. I lied down a bit ago & drifted off into a lovely sleep, until a few minutes later when Sherlock woke me up wanting attention.

OMG my heart is still racing. What a fantastic ending! My tv guide spoiled it a bit by saying it was an exciting tribal counsel. But wow it was great!

Has anyone already linked to Tom Nondorf's new Leading Men column, featuring interviews with Boyd Gaines and Nathan Gunn? (If they have, here it is again.)

Which one did you have? The first three sound great, no so the rest of the fillings.

Unfortunately, there's not a Killer Brownie flavor I don't like. The Blonde Ambition is my least fav, only because I'm not fond of macadamias. The bite I had today was Original.

One of my favorite things to do for a potluck dinner is to buy one of each flavor. Since they're rectangular, I cut the end off to make a square and leave the ends for Richard. Then I cut each square in quarters and put them in mini muffin papers and arrange them randomly on a tray. Always a hit, both at home and at the party!

I try, DR Jane, I try!

Hmm, I wonder if DR Elmore would like a Killer Brownie sampler for dessert when he comes over for dinner later this month?

These have never been used. Here's what their website says (the bold is mine):

We at Coffincouches.com have the mindset of thinking "Green" and we know it is different but we strongly believe in recycling. Our niche happens to be 18 gauge steel coffins which we collected from local funeral homes primarily in Southern California. It is a health and safety law that funeral homes cannot resell used coffins to the general public. We approached funeral directors with the attitude of recycling. These coffins are not used for burial due to slight cosmetic inconsistencies. They are reconfigured and modified resulting in a finished product - a unique one a kind coffin couch.

It doesn't say they aren't used, it says they were not used for burial - that is not the same thing.

Thanks for the link to Nondorf, DR FJL. I would always miss these if you didn't post the links.

I just got back from choir rehearsal, and... WHEW!

I think I got just as good a workout as DR JoseSPiano, waving my arms conducting Kenyan music. The choir is finally starting to get the words, which I spent 2.5 hours this afternoon writing out phonetically in their scores. And then we added percussion ad libitum, and it sounded pretty decent!

singdaw · « **Reply #264 on:** May 01, 2008, 07:17:56 PM »

I don't know what time bk's first preview performance starts tonight, but hope he and his crew are breakin' legs!

...And what's even more amazing is that the show is more or less customized according to each boy's strengths (and "weaknesses"). The keys of the solos are changed, if needed, for each young man, and even the dance combinations will be "individualized". Basically, there will be three variations of the show each week. -I will not envy the music/pit librarian for this show... Or the conductor.

That sounds like a nightmare for all the musicians! And then what if for some reason they have to change Billy's in mid-show?

Why thanks, DR Jane! There's going to be some people from Kenya at the service on Sunday, so we really do kind of have to get the words right.
