John, thanks for posting the Pacific Overtures clip!

I am one of the few that think this is a BRILLIANT show. It has a solid place in my all time favorite Top 10 and most people look at me like I'm crazy. Most people don't even know what show I'm talking about.

I went to the Tonys last year and while I certainly had a good time, you're absolutely right, the earlier shows were so special. Now the show is staged for the lowest common denominator (sorry all you non-theatre folk) and you would NEVER get that number on any television awards show. 7 minutes and 15 seconds of brilliance!!!

The number from Coco on the 1970 Tony Awards® ran almost 15 minutes!

This was very disheartening to read this morning...

Critical backlash at Julie Andrews’ “tragic” stage return

This is sad, but really...how could one expect her to sing?

I was going to say the same thing. WHat exactly was Dame Julie billed to do? I didn't think it was supposed to be a songfest.

I couldn't really tell from the article what she was supposed to do. Were the fans merely angry that she did not sing. Or was she not doing much of anything on stage. I think it's sad. But i would need more info to know if the fans were being jerks or if the situation was just misrepresented to them.

Thanks for the pictures and report DR MBarnum.

Thankfully it was sort of sunny today. STill cold (high of like 50F). But much better than the weekend. I had to take my flowers in. It was really cold.

Jennifer · « **Reply #155 on:** May 10, 2010, 01:39:21 PM »

I didn't get to bike at all this weekend. So i made myself go today even though it was cool. I can't wait till it gets warmer and less windy.

OK, signing off to prepare my script for tonight. I'm the "installing past-president" for Middletown-AAUW, so I have to fill in the names of the outgoing and newly-elected officers and review the flowery language. We're having our "end of year" dinner at The Golden Lamb in Lebanon.

Tomorrow is my aunt's birthday. And she selected a nice chinese restaurant. Yum.

Two CDs that I'd ordered from Amazon have just arrived! Barbra Streisand's 2-CD version of "Love Is the Answer" and the new 2-CD Broadway revival cast recording of A Little Night Music!

That's what I'll be listening to today!

And I know someone in that show. I didn't know her then but I know her now. She was in the chorus. I will have to watch closely to see if I can spot her.

I am going to get some Ginger Ale today, and maybe some sody crackers.

Do you have any matzos? I find them more settling than soda crackers.

I was just thinking about COCO the other day whilst watching Rene Auberjonois (sp?) in THE PATRIOT. I've always thought the score was underapreciated, I think A WOMAN IS HOW SHE LOVES is especially excellent.

I have said that before here and been ridiculed because of it.

Don't you folks have the three volumes of BROADWAY'S LOST TREASURES on DVD? The COCO number is on one of those.

Today I saw this menu posted outside a Chinese Restaurant:

It was stuck inside the plastic still wiggling.

I think I'll skip this place.

My DSL has been wonky all afternoon. Pages take forever to load (if they load at all). I was able to get my entire review for THE EDGE written while I was trying a bunch of different websites and waitinf for them either to load or to choke my browser.

The photos are soooooo cute, especially the sleeping angels.

You know, PACIFIC OVERTURES was filmed in the theater for Japanese television, and it's a shame that performance has never been released in a commercial videotape or DVD. I have seen it, and it's quite wonderful, something fans of the show would really LOVE to have.

I have a ootleg-bay copy of that!

Like that song; We were sailing along on Ootleg Bay

LOL Laura, yes that was much better than the photo of the bug in the window.

Jeanne reminds me of my beautiful Gaia, only Gaia's body was all black with a few brown highlights.

Important question: (to me anyway

)

What train stations are closest to Scranton, PA? (say, under an hour or so away)

(preferably Amtrak, but if not Amtrak, anything)

bk · « **Reply #177 on:** May 10, 2010, 03:19:27 PM »

Back from Jerry's Deli - I had two poached eggs and white toast, plus a side of white rice, accompanied by ginger ale. I feel okay right now.

Jane · « **Reply #178 on:** May 10, 2010, 03:20:18 PM »

Good-vibes you stay that way.

Laura · « **Reply #179 on:** May 10, 2010, 03:36:55 PM »

I hope you stay feeling well, too.
