Well, you've read the notes, the notes were all about 12, and now it is time for you to post until the twelve cows come home.

I have an errand to run after that and then I will pick up my ticket for The Other Place, a new play with Laurie Metcalf. It ran Off-Broadway earlier this year and is now running at Manhattan Theatre Club.

Tomorrow, which begins the rest of my vacation with nothing to do other than what we want to do, I will finally see War Horse (the play, not the movie).

I keep thinking I should see Les Mis, but I don't know when it opens. I can't find any information about it. But, you know those small indie films with unknown casts. It may have already opened and did so badly they pulled it from release. I may have to wait for the DVD (if they even do that).

i was planning to see LES MIS when it opens on december 25th, but after reading what Peter Filichia wrote about it I am not so sure I will go.

also they are over promoting it in my opinion which for me is a red flag.

they want to get as many people in to see it before (perhaps) bad word of mouth may kill it

So I may not go see Les Mis on December 25th until I read the reviews and hear what other people have to say about it.

Besides Les Mis which opens on December 25th (Christmas Day) has never been one of my favorite musicals

An example of why I don't think Les Mis score is all that good.

When the "Honest Bishop" sings to Valjean the music used Empty Chairs At Empty Tables. Thematically (in my opinion) the music have no connection between the characters who sing the songs

An example where it does.

In Into the Woods when the Baker's Wife and Cinderella sing about the Prince the music that is quoted is Agony which the Prince sings about Cinderella. So thematically it works because there is a connection between the characters.

ASK BK DAY QUESTION

Rewording a question from the other day.

I was wondering why you chose to register your songs with ASCAP over BMI. Is there a difference between the two organizations?

I love LE MIZ, and I was also planning to see it on Christmas Day.

However, like you, the reviews I've read are making me think that I'll wait for the DVD.

Good morning, all! I didn't get out of bed until 8:00, and I am still moving very slowly.

I have to be at goddaughter Charlotte's  musical theatre class presentation at 7:00pm at Ripley Grier, which is less than 10 blocks from Toyland, so I will go in later and work until it's time to walk there.  I'll leave here around 1pm and head down.

DR JohnG, I thought the CD and DVD of A TALE OF CINDERELLA were both out of print! My memoryof the mix on the DVD is that it's different from the VCR, which I preferred. I have problems with the show, but I can't complain; it made me a lot of money, and I always liked working for the now dead New York State Theatre Institute. They were good people.

More coffee!

Wednesday morning greetings!  It's clear and cold here in SW Ohio today.  Mom has a doctor's appointment this afternoon and she wants to go on our annual pre-Christmas visit to Bern's Garden Center beforehand.  I will be E & T for a chunk of the midday.

DR Vixmom - thank you for the birthday wish you left last night after I signed off!  I'm so glad you had such a lovely time on my birthday (thanks, DR Cillaliz!)

They were good people. And I hope to have time this weekend to watch Cinderella.

I didn't know there was a filmed version. I'd have bought it a long time ago. Any other filmed versions of shows you've worked on, Larry?

Glad to read Vixmom enjoyed the show. I hear the new cast recording will be a double disc with all of the variations recorded. Should be fun.
