What's weird is, the TV is out but the computer's fine.

Some of those morons on Castrecl have no sense of humor at all.

I would take a few of the LACC kids if we moved, and certainly the pros.  In fact, Barry has some theater in Mt. Gretna, where he did Grease, interested in Abner, so I'll be talking to them this week.  That would be for 2015.


Vibes your success with this show continues!!!!

You'll see that I corrected something he was in error about - that we should have costumed General Bullmoose in a General's outfit.  I think it's pretty apparent General Bullmoose is a member of the private sector, which is the entire point of his character :)

I saw that he corrected his comments. Still, those are the kind of love letters everyone is glad to get.

Twice now I've tried to write a story and both times it has been eaten by WordPress. I want to scream.

Nice musings.....

And of course the song is a nod to a phrase popular in the 1950's:

What's good for General Motors is good for the USA.

Back from an impromptu gathering of relatives. We sat around and talked, drank, and ate way, way, way too much.

And my TV is back!  I may watch THE NORMAL HEART tonight at 9:00.  I did not see the last revival, but i did see the original at the Public Theatre.  Concetta Tomei was amazing!

So our next family bride-to-be has been feted.  Lauren had a great time and received many nice gifts, mostly for the kitchen.  Her groom will enjoy using them  ;)

Happy Sunday, all!

First and foremost, Congrats to BK and the cast, crew and musicians of Abner for their grand success. I'm still cursing that my one chance to see it was hijacked for no good reason.

It seems to have been that kind of week. The gig I had last night that kept me from the final performance of Abner was one of the biggest disasters we've ever had on our corporate show. Our boss in NY decided it would be okay to have a party DJ be our sound person, and after a lengthy and unsuccessful sound check, we almost walked. The boss got on the phone and talked us into staying, but it got worse. A Three Tenors send up with three big voices, ended up with only one working mic outside, no lights and an audience who wondered why the hell we were there. Oh well, I get aid the same but how embarrassing. We won't be getting any gigs out of that one.

Okay, I must get back into the Kritzerland music, which is wonderful. Lyrics, lyrics lyrics is the new mantra.

cheers!   :D
