Ok, JRand54 and Rodzinksi, you guys have piqued my interestes with this KIRBY STONE FOUR group...so I went to Amazon.com and listened to some of their songs...I put the CD THE GO SOUND/KIRBY STONE TOUCH into my wish list for the next time I order from Amazon!

In other news...

I saw some clips on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night of the "Jury Countdown Clock" for the Michael Jackson Trial...

WHAT THE !@#$%$#@!?!?!?!?!

There were actually announcing the elapsed time so far for the jury deliberations.

Isn't there a war still going on in Iraq?

Isn't Congress still doing it's "thing"?

-Did I really need to know it's been 36 hours, 48 minutes and 12 seconds since the jury started deliberating!?!?!?

...As for the La Cage closing... If it the show was being produced by the Weisslers, then maybe they would retract the closing notice, however...

The show has been playing to less than stellar crowds since it's opening. And Mr. Goulet's addition didn't really cause that much of a continual spike in attendance. -And that Marquis is one BIG theatre.

Again, there's Brooklyn... so...

And I'm guessing the choice of June 26 as a closing date is not so arbitrary. Coincides with the end of Pride Week in New York City.

WOW!!

The things you find out when you IM people you haven't spoken to in a while...

My friend, Mark, from Richmond... Who kept losing jobs - companies closing up... Car got totalled... Ex-wife getting married and moving to West Virginia with their kids... -Well, I knew all of that... Well...

He's now in New Mexico! He went out to visit his sort of estranged Mom, ended up having lunch with some old friends and co-workers, and then ended up getting a great job offer. So... He's living out in Albuquerque now.

WOW!

And I thought my "train of work" was weird?!?!?!

I had lots of cast albums in mono because sometimes I just didn't have the extra dollar for the stereo edition of an LP. Also, for the longest time, we used the stereo console in our living room to play albums, and since both speakers were located in basically the same place in the cabinet, we couldn't hear that much difference between mono and stereo records. Once I got a REAL stereo that had speaker far apart, you could hear very well the difference.

Matt H. · « **Reply #96 on:** June 08, 2005, 12:55:05 PM »

My first in-car stereo system was an 8-track player, and I had about a dozen 8-track tapes including the soundtracks to STAR! and HELLO DOLLY. Only a few cast 8-tracks: MAME, SWEET CHARITY, 1776.

After I finished HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN today, I put in the latest special edition of RAGING BULL and watched the first few chapters of it.

I'm saving NIGHTMARE ALLEY probably for Sunday so I can have time to savor it. Have shows the next few nights which means a busy afternoon doing regular chores in preparation of being gone at night.

I believe the Kirby Stone Four once guested on THE JUDY GARLAND SHOW. Seems like I remember them on one of the shows - maybe the one with Chita Rivera and Louis Nye? Been a while since I watched any of the Garland shows, so I could be wrong.

Did anyone else have a Peaches record store in their area?

Around 1976, I worked part-time in the Classical Dept of Peaches in Cincinnati. The store was about two buildings from a White Castle, called White Death by my co-workers. Every Saturday night, I'd take several hundred burgers home to my family. I don't think I was trying to kill them; it was their request.

Taupe (I think it's taupe) Dockers, light blue long sleeve Polo shirt (which has coffee stains on the sleeve), black socks, black loafers, Hai Karate.

My first CD was Peter Gabriel's So.

DR Jennifer, did you watch Fire Me Please last night? I caught only the last twnety minutes or so, but I was laughing my butt off the sofa. Now there's a reality show that I would love to be a contestant on.

Joke to read out loud:

Did you hear about the whale at the aquarium that had to be circumsized?

They sent down four skindivers.

We did not have Peaches store in Charlotte, but we did have Camelot Music.

vixmom · « **Reply #106 on:** June 08, 2005, 01:30:24 PM »

I don't remember a Peaches or a Camelot, but we a had a local privately owned record store which closed down in the late 70's...actually the Vixter's dance studio is now in that location.. (that just occurred to me after 8 years of her attending it!)

I have no idea what it's name was.

And then when I was able to drive (1974!) I started going to this place http://www.whirlindisc.com/cd'sh-m.htm... which is still going strong I see!

Just heard the rather sad news that Footlight Records is closing its doors and becoming an Internet-only store. Once that happens, I think they will not be able to compete with other net stores, which offer much bigger discounts than Footlight. When I began that other label, I predicted that the handful of mom and pop specialty shops like Footlight would soon close their doors and go Internet - it took a bit longer than I thought, but it's happening now. I always liked Footlight, especially their employee Arnold, and the other owner besides Ron. Ron has always been peculiar to me - never know how to read the guy, and he was actually offensive when I was last in the store, and I haven't returned since.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #109 on:** June 08, 2005, 01:52:59 PM »

Gee that IS bad news.

And the guy who played Pseudelus when I was in FORUM works there.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #110 on:** June 08, 2005, 02:02:31 PM »

MBarnum- You'll dig the Kirby Stone Four, I bet. I didn't even know they had anything out on CD. That's great news.
I don't have any of those lounge compilations you mentioned. I do have a lot of vinyl that would probably be classified as lounge nowadays.

Rodzinski · « **Reply #111 on:** June 08, 2005, 02:08:28 PM »

I haven't been feeling to well of late and now I know why: I'm sick. I'm going home to sleep.

MBarnum · « **Reply #113 on:** June 08, 2005, 02:13:40 PM »

Yes, there are at least 2 different KSF CDs out...double album CDs no less! I am surprised that I had never heard of them....but BAUBLES, BANGLES, AND BEADS I have heard on one our local oldies stations (the one that caters to 70 and 80 year olds...and me).

You should pick up one of the ULTRA LOUNGE SAMPLERS. You would love it.

And those TV DINNER cds are just so wonderful...I think I sent JRand54 some samples of them once....all instrumental, wacky, 1950s and 60s stuff.

MBarnum · « **Reply #114 on:** June 08, 2005, 02:14:28 PM »

Get some rest Rodzinksi, and hope you will be feeling better tomorrow.

Ben · « **Reply #115 on:** June 08, 2005, 02:17:01 PM »

I guess my perpetual visits to Footlight didn't help to keep them open. Oh, how sad. But at least my CD addiction will be curbed because as much as I go to Academy, they don't have the broad theatre stock that Footlight has/had.

Ben · « **Reply #116 on:** June 08, 2005, 02:19:12 PM »

I actually thought something was up at Footlight. The last few times I was there it just seemed like something was going on. All the sales and the hundreds of cassettes for $3 a piece and the general condition of the store made me think something like this was going to happen.

Are we having an afternoon lull, yes or no?

I have got my seats for the Sondheim Hollywood Bowl bash. I had my choice - free seats, what they call Super Seats, which are in front of the benches, and are real seats, or I could pay a bit and get Terrace Box Seats, which is what I chose. That way it enables me to also get a preferred parking pass, and then I can bring a nice picnic basket and get there a couple of hours early and enjoy the late-afternoon.
