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

I gave up on Musical of Musical.  One joke stretched too far.

That's too bad.  I enjoyed the original cast recording.  I didn't get a chance to watch the video at work today.  Maybe I'll attempt it tomorrow.

Topic of the Day:  the first title that I thought of where I both read the book and had seen the movie was The Wizard of Oz.

Unfortunately, there was a new round of gushing water from the ceiling last night. I'm secretly hoping that it starts affecting the bathroom in the apartment below ours, to give management a little more incentive to do something about it.

Last night, we watched an old episode of The Carol Burnett Show, featuring guest star Rock Hudson.

Carol and Rock performed a rendition of "What Do the Simple Folk Do?" from Camelot. I was surprised at how well Rock sang! I didn't remember him as being a singer.

I slept very well. The cats behaved, so that was an added bonus.

I dreamed I was working on a recording for the crazy man with the last foundation I worked for. We were at someone's apartment rehearsing with Jason Graae, then there was a bus ride to the Upper West Side, and I was in a restaurant. That's about all I remember.

When I watched The Last Wave last week I hadn't yet connected the dots between its events and those DR singdaw is experiencing. Now I believe there are ample grounds for a remake, and I shall call Hollywood today to give them a heads up.

A local group here did Musical of Musicals six or seven years ago, just the cast of four (which I'm presuming is what it's written for?), one of whom also doubled on playing the piano (likewise?). That cast understood every reference and joke they were making, the staging was clever and fast-paced, and the small venue was perfect for it. I do remember thinking a few of the bits or songs could have been written even shorter, but it was a charming evening.

Based on what I've been reading, I can already imagine what this one's going to look like. I'll watch it or skip through it later with the expectations dial set to zero.
