Well, you've read the notes, the notes were in tech, and now it is time for you to post until the tech cows come home.

Listening to the 1957 recording of Persephone - a beautiful work by Stravinsky, released in mono - only guess what - sixty years later they found stereo tapes - seems as though it was slated for release at that time, cancelled, slated again two years later, and cancelled again and forgotten about. And the sound - they don't do it better today, that's all I can tell you. Stunning.

So, will it never be released?

Condolences to DR TCB on the loss of his friend Sandy. The memories you posted were very nice.

Hell Week vibes for MR BK - it was ever thus.....

Nice link yesterday DR FJL - I hope TLS gets many, many fine productions!

I mentioned to my oncologist yesterday that I had been "marked" for radiation therapy and asked how that would work with the chemo regimen he was outlining....or would they be done at the same time....

He was quiet for a moment, and then he said he knew NOTHING about any planned radiation treatment for me....he got on the computer to look at all of my test results, etc., and then left saying he wanted to talk to the radiation doctor.

He came back several minutes later and said there would be a meeting on Thursday between him, the surgeon, and the radiation doctor to settle on the correct treatment.

I am a medical battleground....most interesting. He was very angry....he will call me tomorrow after the meeting.

Thanks to vixmom, Jrand and TCB for the Starfighter wishes form last night and this morning.

John G. · « **Reply #15 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:02:53 AM »

Good morning, all.

John G. · « **Reply #16 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:03:29 AM »

Vibes of comfort and peace for TCB and for all who loved Sandy.

John G. · « **Reply #17 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:05:07 AM »

JRAND, your story is quite scary. It just illustrates why you have to ask questions of the various caregivers one can face. I hope everybody gets on the same page and soon.

John G. · « **Reply #18 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:06:09 AM »

TCB, I'm glad you got to spend some quality time with your nephew.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #19 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:14:57 AM »

Good morning, all.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #20 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:21:19 AM »

Sorry to hear the news, TCB.

In spite of everything, it's still a shock. It almost feels like the proverbial end of an era, since you've been able to share so many experiences with Sandy, and share them with us, over all this time.

You were a great friend to him. Vibes of comfort.

FJL, here's to much success with the release of The Last Starfighter!

Sorry about your loss

FROM YESTERDAY

For FRED
Congrats on The Last Starfighter

and don't forget to tell them the cast album can be on sale in the lobby during intermission and after the show!

vixmom · « **Reply #25 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:39:28 AM »

JRand. Strongest vibes all gets sorted appropriately immediately. I had chemo and radiation simultaneously but they did not operate to remove my tumor

ChasSmith · « **Reply #26 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:49:08 AM »

Yes, DR Jrand66. Your little story read as amusing at first, and then somewhat alarming. Medical battleground, indeed. It's almost impossible to believe that these three doctors haven't been in sync with this all along, and how fortunate that you hadn't yet begun the treatments.

I think we all know what Ricky Ricardo would have said about this. Ay yi yi yi...

ChasSmith · « **Reply #27 on:** June 07, 2017, 05:52:06 AM »

Here's hoping DR Elmore's journey was uneventful and that things are proceeding apace in Beautiful SW Ohio.

Ask BK:

Your comment from last night intrigues me:

Quote

The folks who tech for the big LA theaters, including our team, have, I suppose, the classic way of doing tech - which I don't like, but I'm not gonna change these folks, even though if they actually did it my way they'd love it and change instantly. But cues are being written as we go, which means we move VERY slowly - we're not quite halfway through and it's pretty clear we won't get a run-through tomorrow, so Thursday everyone's gonna have to be back on their A game VERY quickly.

As someone who's usually got his head buried in a keyboard book during tech rehearsals (and sometimes just as grateful for the extra moments for working my own stuff out), I'd be very interested to know what the difference is between your method and the standard. I know I've been through a few that proceeded surprisingly quickly, but snail's pace has been more the norm.
