I thought page 4 could use a touch of red.

Good afternoon or evening.  I've spent the day taking care of several annoying chores that just had to finally be crossed off the list.  Tonight, one of the last things I feel like doing is sitting at a local outdoor venue watching some people put on ANYTHING GOES.  And yet, that's just what I'm doing.  Got to see a few folks.

Tomorrow night, I'll be watching (at least it's indoors) another group of people doing BLOODY BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON, of which I know nothing.  I've been told I'll enjoy it, or at least not hate it.  We'll see.  Oh yes, we shall see.

(Almost typed SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY there.)

For now, let's hope DR Elmore isn't BLOODY when he shows up after Roberta sessions.

But you get to hear Cole Porter. That's one of the things that makes life more worthwhile.

Name the film, and the actor who had this line:

"O pointy birds, o pointy pointy, anoint my head, anointy-nointy."

2 of Dawn Powell's early books are available for download as free e-books at the Internet Archive. Scroll to the bottom and you'll see the files. You can download them as e-pub or Kindle files.

I downloaded the two books.  I don't know when I'll be able to read them, though.  I have several things in line before I can get to these.

Hello All:


TOD:


Currently I have a Mix of Coldplay that my son, Matt recorded several years ago.

I really like Coldplay!

The other day I really enjoyed BK's GUY HAINES, HAINES HIS WAY.   It is very uplifting and put me in a good mood.

Good morning, all! I'm up, dressed, and ready for the session. Thank you for the vines last night! I need them today.

I'm also a bit tense because, after yesterday's email exchange, my beloved producer Judy appears to have gone from a "this is fun! " recording to a "let's finish this crap fast!" attitude. If that's the case, it will be a tense day.  If sure that's a part of her own frustrations, by I prefer those sessions where things go my way and very smoothly. This recording could be fantastic,  but it's been a damned difficult one to assemble, and I'm tense.

KEEP THOSE POSITIVE VIBES COMING!

I am home. I thank those of you kind and generous enough to send vibes! They were excellent, and things went amazingly well. I wasn't sure, and there were several intense and tense moments, but we got through everything with time to spare. I really believe things would not have gone well without your good wishes.

Let's call the whole thing Orff

Orff, orff, orff!

Shouldn't it be, "Let's Carl the whole thing Orff"?

I didn't know Powell at all until Ginny talked about her. Because she's an early century writer I looked to see if any of her stuff was at Gutenberg or Many Books. No luck there but the Internet Archive, a great resource has those 2 books. Open Library, another Internet lending library, has 17 of her books in some form

Dawn Powell Open Library

I've got all her novels that were reissued, the volume of collected plays, the Tim Page bio and the volume of collected letters. I kinda went Powell crazy in the 1990s. Still love her stuff.

Thank you to DR Ben for the links to eBook versions of Dawn Powell's work.  Ask Anthony if he remembers helping me pick out DP books at the Strand Bookstore and then chatting about my project on a park bench in Union Square.

DR John G, when you read WHITHER (which I didn't think was so bad), pay attention to the description of Rowena, the Lyceum performer, between pages 112 and 121.  I laughed out loud when reading that and imagining what Dawn would think of a Chautauqua enactment of herself!

I think she had a good sense of humor about everything but herself.

:)



Remember the quote from Mel Brooks, though:  "Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you fall into an open sewer...”
