Watching the livestream of the Grammy Awards, waiting for the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Category.  Barbra is up against Bob Dylan, Josh Groban, Willie Nelson and Andrea Bocelli.  It's pretty boring so far.



Willie Nelson won.   No comment.

I have a pretty rare import of the Bernstein Mahler 6th and 9th - just played the 6th and in multi-channel sound it's a whole different experience - things are so much cleaner and clearer - it's still not my favorite performance but it's better than the standard stereo mix, although even that on the SACD stereo layer sounds better than the CD, even though it's the same mastering.

Made the other half of the bow tie pasta I had - about seven ounces, with some tomato sauce and sautéed red onion and I put a splash of low-fat milk in the red sauce to make it pink sauce - all excellent and the total cost, since I had a bottle of Prego, was two bucks.  I think I will continue this eating at home for the next week or so.

;D  Only a week or so?

YouthPLAYS, the company that will be making the LAST STARFIGHTER musical available for community theatres, school, summer camps, etc. already put the basic annoucnement on their site and it's showing up on Google.

It's just quickly announced under their "Coming Soon' section about halfway down the home screen here.

http://youthplays.com/

I'm assuming they won't be taking booking info on doing the show for another month or so, but it'll be available in two versions:  the full two-act (sort-of PG-13) version which runs 90-100 minutes, or the Young Audience version suitable for all kids 5 to 95 and will run about 60-65 minutes.

Please pass the info around, or if you have a theatre that might be interested in a 15+ person show, please use the info yourself!

Thanks,.
Fred

Congrats, Fred and Skip!  I thought it was an absolutely delightful show when I saw the concert version in Issaquah in 2006. :D

If it comes back this way we will go.  I enjoy the CD.

I know some people who pray for the snow and love it.  I am with you in regard to preferring warmer temps.

It was in the mid 40's today but sunny.  We took a nice long walk into town and back.  There were loads of boats sailing on the river :)

Judged the chili cook-off at church. There were a few good entries, but, please, under no circumstances are you ever to use the following items in your chili:

Pickle juice
Carrots
Brown sugar
Honey

I'm surprised one chili wasn't floating in lime gelatin.


Why no brown sugar?

Because chili is not a dessert.

WHAT?!! MY famous chili uses lime jello.

I'm at rehearsal and it's going well as could be expected.  A few lines have been called for and not all of the costumes are finished, but they're getting through it.

We started the run at 8:00 and we're heading towards the end of the first act.  Some costume changes were and are taking longer than expected, but it's a rehearsal, so no one's worried yet.

I don't have a script with sound cues written in it (yet).  I'm using the script of one of the actresses.  The sound board program has the script cues and page numbers in the "description" field for each cue, but it's awkward having to read ahead and make sure I'm looking at the right cue.

But once I get my own script, I'll be able to write in all my cues.

Watched almost all of a motion picture, then went to Von's and did the kind of a shopping I haven't done in ages.  This same food would have cost about $150 at Gelson's - with the Von's discounts and card it was half that.  I now enough food here to have many meals without so much as looking at the inside of a restaurant, although I still have some meetings to do, so that's when I'll eat in restaurants.  But if I can eat here, I shall.  I got some of my favorite Uncle Ben's rice packets - very nice as a side dish and easy to microwave - I got no-fat refried beans, cheese, tortillas, sandwich rolls, tuna, hot dog buns, no-fat low-cal hot dogs, those baked potato chip things in sour cream and onion and barbecue - very low-cal - wheat thins (ranch style - excellent), a red onion, a regular onion, cream of mushroom soup - several cans - sour cream, and four things of pasta - on sale - four for five bucks - amazing.

Bruce, I thought Gelson'so was the only market near you ;)  It is great to see you shopping like this.  Now if you would only add veggies.

Rehearsal is still going well...however (and I hope that it's because everyone is still working on everything), but it's fairly slow going.  There are long pauses everywhere.  The pace really needs to be picked up. :-\
