Fantastic. Are these, then, the replacements for the original cast?

Something I've always wondered -- when these casts did their numbers on TV, is the house band playing, or were pre-recorded tracks used? I think the typical TV band would have had to be sweetened with additional players in many cases, right? And if it was tracks, were they only instrumental or did they include the vocals to be lip-synced?

Baayork was one of the originals, but the other two replace Margo Sappington and Donna McKechnie. Watchoing it I realized some of the harmonies are probably coming from the four girls in the orchestra pit.

The general chores are over, thank God, but today's leg pains and walking are really tough to deal with.

And if it was tracks, were they only instrumental or did they include the vocals to be lip-synced?

I've been thinking about this and here are my thoughts:
1. The Ed Sullivan Show often had dancer and opera stars so maybe they had a standard Broadway-sized orchestra that they augmented when needed.
2. Many of the players might also be playing Broadway shows since Ed Sullivan was on Sunday night when theatres were dark.

I just finished reading my 130th book for the year.  I prefer to compare how many pages I read a year to the number of books since book sizes vary.  I have read 46715 pages.

Vixmom, when you say they were all vaccinated does that include boosters?  I hope they all have mild cases.

Sitting outside in the sun feels good. And I hope my mask keeps a few allergens away.

To my surprise I haven't found my mask to be very helpful with allergens.

TOD:

Maybe I’m too boring, but I don’t remember any weird NYE’s. I may be out, I may stay home. The ball drops. I go to bed.

Sigh.

We rushed to get ready, bundled up, and I quickly ate breakfast.  Now they say they won't be here for a couple of hours as they are working in another building first.  I am over dressed and sick from eating to fast  ::)

Keith has gone to the gym.  We decided one of us should stay home in case they arrive early.  I hope they do but doubt it.
