Well, you've read the notes, the notes were unevenly distributed, and now it is time for you to post until the unevenly distributed cows come home.

Perhaps MURDER will arrived in my mailbox today, of course I will be at work when it does.

Tomorrow I have my first round of auditions for ANGEL STREET. It is also graduation day for DePauw University, so I will not see any of those people until Monday night.

Good morning, all! I stayed up late reading the Britten biography, and I slept in. Today is another day of leisure before I run through Bruce Pomahac's questions about possible errors in the ROBERTA vocal score. If there are indeed errors, then the corrections also happen n the full scores, and we cannot print the orchestra parts until they are correct.

Today, I'm doing very little. The Britten book has made me want to listen to PETER GRIMES, so I may do that.

Good morning, all.

And I still haven't received my copy of the book here while I'm on vacation.

Still no time to catch up.

Saw old friends from high school and college last night. Took Mom and Dad out for a 58th anniversary lunch at a beautiful place along the river. And we played dominos. Oh, yeah, did a lot of work on Mom's cookbook. Finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel on that project.

Celery with cream cheese and almonds
Celery and other veggies with bagna cauda
Anchovies by themselves or wrapped around radishes
Raw ravioli (lime-soaked slivers of daikon radished) stuffed with goat cheese and pine nuts
Bruschetta with plenty of garlic in the tomato mix
Empandas

I am also a Delmar Daves fan.

Aside from JUBAL and 3:10 TO YUMA, I like BROKEN ARROW, THE LAST WAGON, PRIDE OF THE MARINES and THE RED HOUSE.

I wish they could come up with a decent print of that last one. The sound track on every print I've seen is terrible.

BK, love your blog today. I grew up falling in love with movies, watching them on TV cut up with commercials and so much static sometimes that it was like watching them through a snowstorm. What I responding to was THE STORY! If the story held me I didn't give a crap whether t was blue or orange or teal (most were black and white anyway) or whether it was soft or hard or limp or rigid. How anal does one have to be about this stuff? It's why I don't have to go to blu-ray. As long as I can see it, I'm fine. I've never understood audio-philes either who can distinguish nuances in their stereo equipment, "Can you hear the difference?" "No...but I can hear it and it sounds just fine to me."

Enjoyed the notes about the OCD Blu-ray “experts”. I get fed up with their constant obsession about grain. No review is now complete unless there’s mention of what the grain looks like. Then there are message board threads where people discuss their favourite grainy discs. Why don’t these people stick a sheet of gauze in front of their screens if they don’t like clear pictures?

Fact is, for decades grain was seen by cinematographers as not something good but something to be eliminated as much as possible through suitable lighting and exposure. The only time I ever noticed grain when watching films in theatres was if I was sitting too close to the screen – I soon learnt not to sit too close. I honestly think that these obsessive “experts” are doing great harm to the overall consumer take-up of Blu-ray.

They are indeed doing harm.

I'm up and shortly she of the Evil Eye will be here and I will go for a jog. I forgot to mention that not only did I do a three-mile jog, I did an additional mile and a half jog early last evening, thanks to some truly annoying news.

Morning all.

That is all.

Technically, it's still morning.

Well, I have a rush ticket for the matinee of Pippin. I thought that 6:30am would be a good time to arrive. It's light by that time and it's only a 3 and a half hour wait instead of 4 hours. Well, at 6:30 there were already 14 people ahead of me. Luckily at No. 15 I got a ticket (they also sell both matinee and evening rush at 10am) but by 10am when they began the line was long enough that some people did not get a ticket. They sell 36 tickets (the first two rows of the orchestra) for $37. Oy, what I do for theatre. But the weather was decent and the line was calm. I had my media player so listened to WNYC on the radio and by 10:10am I had a ticket for the show.
