  Is this how you've been spending your spare time?


Yes. I've chiseled the initials of a DR on each individual stone.

bk, is there a possibility that this new Kander & Ebb studio cast album could be a 2-disc set? Or haven't discussions progressed that far yet?

Always watch out for those tambourine players; they're tricky:

It would definitely be a two CD set.

I've been writing liner notes and listening to the raw tapes for that score.  This will be a major release for us - I'm trying to fast track it so it's next but that's dependent on how fast I get the road map done.  There have been three previous CD releases for this score - it's by a beloved composer.  Each release has included more music, but shockingly none were complete (there was about three minutes of short but great cues left off the longest of the releases).  I pulled the three-track mix tapes and had them transferred and it looks like we have everything including the missing cues.  Plus, we can have some interesting bonus tracks, too.  This will be one of the few releases where we go to 1500 and I think it will still be an instant sell out even at that number - in fact, I could probably go to 2000 but then five hundred would sit there for six months while people thought they had all the time in the world to get it.  So, 1500 it will be.  The original CDs had a few tracks combined into longer tracks - I do that all the time, but what I don't do is crossfade the incoming new track under the outgoing old track because you end up losing the last few notes of the outgoing track and I HATE that.  So, we're either not combining those really long tracks or we will keep them long but not have the cross fade.

My nieces both got their swimming report cards yesterday.  I can't imagine that there were any kids more excited by their reports. They both passed to the next level. My 4 year old niece can now swim an entire lap. And my 7 year old niece moved up to gold.

I can't imagine anyone wanting crossfades on a CD.  Are the individual tracks complete?  Would they sound good on their own?  I would hope so.  I (usually) don't even like repeat-and-fades in songs.  I want them to end.
