Well, you've read the notes, the notes were a pick-up, and now it is time for you to post until the picked-up cows come home.

The garage door opener is programmed into the mirror.  I did have an old garage door opener but they left that.

Well, "The Tempest" last night went quite well...except for the one cue that I totally forgot about.  I must admit (and I did) that I was distracted. ::) I had my Kindle with me and wasn't paying attention and I totally missed one sound cue.  It will NEVER happen again...EVER!

I'm glad that the pick-up recording session went well, BK!  Hopefully, it'll all get put together easily.

Friends of mine posted this on Facebook...it's too good to not share.

Restaurant Watches Old Surveillance And Shares Shocking Results On Craigslist

Quote
A busy NYC restaurant kept getting bad reviews for slow service, so they hired a firm to investigate. When they compared footage from 2004 to footage from 2014, they made some pretty startling discoveries. So shocking, in fact, that they ranted about it on Craigslist!

If you haven't read this, I highly recommend it.

BK...you've been ranting about this sort of thing for a long time.  Now, there's PROOF! ;)

bk, so sorry to hear about your break-in. That is so unnerving. Glad it wasn't worse.

So interesting about the recording session. I love reading all the nitty gritty. And all of that could have been avoided had they listened to you, bk, and used your players in the first place.


Will you institute a deak-breaker rule in the future that you get to choose the session players, no matter what? It must be frustrating to have to go through all this avoidable extra mixing work.

My orchestral concert was great! We were worried about traffic and closed streets, since Minneapolis is hosting the baseball All-Star games this weekend, but there was nary a sight of any of those problems.


We started with some Strauss and Lehár, then segued into an absolutely stunning rendition of Chopin's First Piano Concerto. At the final note, the audience erupted into an almost instant standing ovation (well deserved), cheering, and wild applause, which lasted for a good five minutes. Natasha Paremski was the soloist, and I am sure you will be hearing more from her in the future. She had just played the Rachmaninoff Third Piano Concerto two nights prior - the one featured in the movie Shine.

Oh - one more thing. I noticed in the program than in a couple of days, there's a Broadway program with the orchestra, featuring Debbie Gravitte, Doug LaBrecque, and Rachel York.

BK, I'm glad they didn't break a window to get in. Our car was broken into, and they broke out a window, which really made a mess. It was expensive to fix, too.

Sorry about your car BK. Thankfully they didn't smash windows or damage the car or get anything good in the car.  :(

Sorry to hear about the break-in, but glad to hear there was no damage and, of course, no horrible loss.  But I send vibes that, for the quarters, we will hear of the perp's unfortunate encounter at his next job with a pit bull who got up on the wrong side of bed.
