THE CITY THAT ALWAYS SLEEPS

Well, you've read the notes, the notes went in search of late night dining and came up empty, and now it is time for you to post until the sleepy cows come home.

Good morning, all! I was up before the alarm went off because I was havng the weirdest soap opera dream, which ran between a summer camp (clearly a residual of reading THEATER GEEK) and a doemstic drama involving a dead dog. I cannot make sense of it now but it was bizarre.

This morning, back to the McGlinnventory, and then I meet with Joshie, who wants me to look over a piece he just orchestrated. He's very good, so it will be fun to talk about choices, his concerns, and other options. I'm sure it will be fine. I can get very very very neurotic about my work before it's finally heard, as BK can attest from his many sessions with me.

Speaking of which, BK, thanks fo the lovely post about LOST IN BOSTON on Facebook! Now that everything's out of print, I still buy used copies of all our albums on eBay, Amazon, and SecondSpin. I'm waiting for the LOST IN BOSTON Hollywood Bowl concert series.

I have to get myself ready to leave this dump.  DR Ben, July 30 is great!

Wednesday!

DR JMK - Curly Myers and Harlow Hickenlooper (Hal Fryer) were the co-hosts of the Three Stooges program on WFBM.....Myers had also sung on WFBM radio for years - so I am sure having him on her program - since the movie must have been short - was great fun for them both.

I would love to have a scan or copy of those pages.

The Three Stooges program was mainly on Saturday morning, but it bounced around the afternoon schedule sometimes.  Once Frye was doing the program live from the lawn of the WFBM studio - must have been summertime....and they immediately preceded Frances' show.

He was talking away and around the corner came Frances lugging a big handbag, head down, and racing to the front door.  Fryer stopped her and she pulled off her sunglasses to talk for a moment, but finally had to excuse herself....she said she was running late, she had been working in her rock garden and lost track of time.  My guess is the tumblers of vodka had something to do with it, too.

In the South of Jersey and most of the Philly-delphia area, there are always places where one can eat no matter the time of day (though my favorite 24/7 diner, Olga's in Marlton, NJ, closed up permanently last year because of mismanagement.)

That explains the trick :) ;)

BK, I too frequently found that LA just closed up too early at night.  A stand-by eatrie for me, always open, was always Astro-Burger.

Bruce I don't think you are petty.  I think you are overly sensitive and making too big a deal about Jose not being here.  I don't know why you, or anyone, would necessarily expect him to see all of his emails when his electricity was out.  Even if he weren't having problems, emails get missed at times or they get lost. Don't come back with he was on FB, because initially he was barely there.

I watched the tv series THE CLOSER for the very first time this week...in fact I watched two episodes. Wow, what a nifty show that is. I think I will become a regular viewer now.

For some reason I thought it was some sci-fi show. Who knew?

Hey there everybody.  It's Wednesday, and that really means completely nothing when you seem to work 7 days a week.  Shows are coming along fine.   Have to do a wedding AND a funeral this week, which will be nice for the income.  I made reservations last night for a fondue place to take the DP and my mom on Sunday to celebrate the DP's birthday.  The extra income will come in handy!  Will try and check in from Agrabah later today.  Toodles Poodles.

I just heard from Gigi Perreau, who is vacationing in France.

She informs me that it was Irene Hervey who played Andy Devine's wife in the Valley Music Theatre's production of NEVER TOO LATE.

Ms. Hervey was married to Alan Jones and is the mother of Jack Jones.

According to Gigi: "It was a wonderful cast and lots of fun to do - my first experience doing theatre in the round."
