I dressed the altar and prepared all the communion supplies in Friday evening as I knew I would be tied up all of Saturday

The DH is playing William Mathias's "Processional" this morning. A jaunty little trumpet tune.

Today I’ll be acting both as lay reader and communion assistant

I have been drinking my coffee, and catching up here, but must think about getting myself ready for the day

I am happy to hear some kind soul brought Elmore’s package up the stairs to the mailboxes, would they had brought it to the apartment door, but I expect that is too much to hope for.

Is it possible to get the shipper to include special instructions on your orders that read “must deliver to apartment door”?

Sadly, no. The shipper was my publisher returning 30+ lbs of scores of mine. I did not know how he was shipping them

Good morning, all.

I had ABS last night, too, and that was after almost falling asleep flipping channels on the tube between 10:30 and 11:00.

Does anyone ... still say ... tube?

I was still trying to get to sleep at 2:00, which I guess happened shortly thereafter. And then I wake up at ... 6:00??

DR Elmore, that reminds me, I was recently trying to find a copy of your arrangement of “Our Time” to purchase, with no luck. Can you direct me to that, if it’s available? Besides getting one for myself, I want one to show to a choral director friend who would do beautifully with it.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #41 on:** April 10, 2022, 05:33:08 AM »

Yesterday I got some good proofing and editing and tweaking done on the Cinderella programming. I have another hour or so to go on that, and maybe I can get my ASS into the Music Room and do it before heading out to New Paltz.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #42 on:** April 10, 2022, 05:37:55 AM »

This programming was done just in time for us to be the first ones to use it, and my proofing of it turned out to be so extensive and time consuming that the folks who license it aren’t even going to charge us for the rental.

BK, I can’t believe those two Group Rep directors who left at intermission. That would be unheard of in these parts when it comes to directors supporting each other’s work, whether at their “own” theater or any of the others.

As soon as Tommy Valando - Steve's publisher - died, his company went out of business and his catalogue went to Warner Chappell, it was taken out of print. I will email you a pdf and I encourage you to get performances. I will never see a royalty, but i'd sure like to say "screw you" to Warner Chappell.

Thank you for the vibes for both Herman and me.

I took a couple of aspirin when I finally got to bed at about 12:30. They helped me sleep without pain.

Happy Sunday to one and all. There's a new Broadway Radio Show up on the site...Phil Geoffrey Bond joins me to chat about the Sondheim Unplugged albums and concerts. Interesting chat and, of course, some great Sondheim songs!

Back in 2011, I think, when we did that tryout run of Christmas Up the Holler, now titled Moonshine and Mistletoe, at the arts center in Hilton Head, we got the opportunity since my collaborator DJ Salisbury often directs for them. Another of their directors was there, DJ knows him, and the rat bastard never came to see a performance. DJ was quite hurt over it, and I don't blame him.

There is such a thing as a "white glove" service meaning the item is delivered to the exact door and brought inside. The buyer is duly notified that it will be delivered within a certain timeframe and must be available to let the delivery be accomplished.

They do charge extra IF it is offered at all.

She’s since moved to Georgia

Where in Georgia does she live? You do mean the state of Georgia and not the country?

Yes, today is Palm Sunday.

My church is about to be very busy with Easter services and then homecoming.

Our homecoming means that for four days, a guest preacher and choirmaster do evening services for the church.

There is at least one covered dish event.

Must start getting dressed for church. Have already showered, shaved and put on socks.

When you get as old as I, you take breaks. This was mine.

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #56 on:** April 10, 2022, 07:13:38 AM »

Here I sit fully dressed and ready to go.

Where IS everybody???

Ron Pulliam · « **Reply #57 on:** April 10, 2022, 07:14:02 AM »

Come on, y'all.

I'm decent. I promise.

Some days you just can't get group participation.
