I do not believe that there was a winning ticket in the lottery drawing.

The dream o' the night concerned a theater situation of some kind, and sandwiches.  Many sandwiches.

Today, a little shopping to ketchup on a few things I'm low on or out of, and sitting down to work on some music.

I also have to relearn how to connect and use my Zoom audio recorder to make good digital copies of a few LPs for someone.  The shameful part is having to relearn how to do anything at all on it.  It's a wonderful device and I should be using it constantly.

TOD:

Stage:
A Little Night Music

Movies:
Mary Poppins
At Long Last Love (more the soundtrack, because it introduced me to Cole Porter)

Play:
As You Like It -- I read it in the seventh grade and heard they were staging it free at Louisville's Shakespeare in the Park that summer. It led to a lifelong love of all things Shakespeare.

Of lesser-known musicals, and these happen to be by people we know, Doug Cohen's The Gig and Amanda Green's (and her collaborators') Hands on a Hardbody not only entertained but gave me so much of value to think about at respective times when I needed it.

BK's comments on film to DVD transfer is something I don't know that I always notice or understand with his eye, but I did notice it last night with "The Marquise of O." The film had been "restored" in 2015 and it certainly looked sharp, clean and pristine. But among the extras, there was the original preview, which was dark and moody and, well, blue -- certainly filtered with more blue than the movie I had just watched. That blue version, while not as dark as the preview, was how I remembered the movie in the theater, more theatrical and more evocative. I don't know if I would have made that connection without BK having mentioned it.

I interviewed Doug Cohen years ago when Cohoes Music Hall was staging his No Way to Treat a Lady.
