THE SECOND PERFORMANCE
« on: June 12, 2017, 12:42:16 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of the second and last performance of this iteration of Hit Song, and now it is time for you to post until the iterated cows come home.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Decided to finish the first half of the commentary so I can definitely finish the rest tomorrow and have that out of the way.

I wish I could say that I liked Evan Hansen.  I am a minority of one.

Now I liked the number from COME FROM AWAY.  Of course, I have heard it many times on Sirius radio's Broadway channel.

I will shortly begin my drive to Miami University.  I hope I can finish up this round of work today.  I'd like to spend part of tomorrow here working on Guys & Dolls.  I am determined that we finish it in the next week.

Since I did not watch the Tonys, I just saw the list of winners. I was really rooting for Come From Away, so I'm very disappointed by its winning so few.

DR TCB, I saw one number from Dear Evan Hansen on a talk show several months ago.  I was completely underwhelmed by it.

I need more coffee and a bit of computer research before I head out.

Monday morning greetings!  I had a screaming nightmare about 4am that woke both of us, but went back to sleep until just after 7.  Enjoying my first cup of coffee and easing into the day.

TOD - I always enjoy the Tonys, but last night's show wasn't the best.  Like DR Elmore, I wanted COME FROM AWAY to do better than it did.  The food-hawking bit was kind of lame, but it did give some visibility to several shows not otherwise featured.  It was a thrill to see our acquaintance Jared as Willie Wonka.  He documented the day in Facebook videos and it was fun to watch the process.

Does anyone know what Bette said that got bleeped?

Of course, my favorite Tony moment was when Gavin Creel dedicated his award to the musical theatre department at The University of Michigan.  And one of his presenters, Sutton Foster, is also an alum - Go, Blue!

From what I been reading elsewhere  Bette said "shit".

Congrats to BK on the 90,000! 

I never think to look at the post counts.  And shame on me, because I enjoy interesting numbers, even when they aren't big round ones.  For instance, mine, prior to my good morning post, would have been 17171.  A fine pattern, if I say so myself.

At my friend's house last night, I missed the first half or so of the opening number and what I did see of it looked absolutely awful.  I don't even have the curiosity to look at that, or much of anything else, on my DVR. 

I just don't relate to how theater (theatre) is addressed -- recognized -- celebrated -- honored -- on this show.

The bleep happened a moment or two after Midler's "blowing smoke up my ass" line, which I was happy didn't get bleeped.  But I guess that woke them up enough that they had no trouble catching the next one!  :)
