Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoken the first day of shooting, and now it is time for you to post until the first day cows come home.

[bk]

And the word of the day is: SUBLIME!

[singdaw]

Good morning, friends. Again. 

[bk]

And now - Dino at the piano.

[singdaw]

First day's activities sound quite exciting.

If I win the lottery, wouldn't it be fund to acquire a tiny Titian?

[singdaw]

It would be a long shot, though, as I don't buy tickets.

[singdaw]

But one can still hope.

[singdaw]

You know Hope. Hope is the thing with feathers.

[bk]

Okay, I think I finally figured it out. Posting now, it said it posted at four - WEST COAST TIME. So, what I really have to do is schedule it at 3:00 in the morning for it to post at midnight WEST COAST TIME. So, we'll give that a whirl.

[singdaw]

The Hope diamond is the featheriest of all.

[singdaw]

Sounds like a good plan, BK.

It just occurred to me that other than The Brain from Planet X, for the most part your NYC days have been few and far between since the inception of HHW and your daily blog.

Ditto.

[John G.]

No opinion on the new Music Man, other than I am not much of a Sutton Foster fan. I find her a bit robotic, as is she’s always waiting to deliver a punchline.

[bk]

I'm up, I'm up - about seven hours of sleep - better.

[bk]

I shall now be on my way to the second day of shooting.

[ChasSmith]

Good morning, all.

[ChasSmith]

Congrats on the shoot proceeding so splendidly from the get go.

I wouldn’t want to make a hasty judgment, but it sounds to me like somebody here knows a few things about planning. 

[ChasSmith]

Yesterday we sitzed and we probed, and everyone was pretty thrilled with it all. I got me a good bunch of musicians (it calls for six in addition to me.) We'll have balance issues to work out, but when isn't that ever the case?

[John G.]

Traffic was miserable this morning.

[ChasSmith]

After probing, we had a very nice dinner break hosted by a few of the cast and a couple of the moms. But we were so exhausted through our tech run-through later (piano only) that no one could do much of anything right. It was almost comical, but we were also too tired to laugh. I collapsed into bed and had a fairly solid sleep punctuated by three or four vivid and very weird dreams. Still tired now, and I shall take it easy through much of the day.

[ChasSmith]

I have nothing kind to say about almost anything I'm hearing about The Music Man.

The Rock Island thing is disgusting. Adding drums is what second rate HIGH SCHOOL productions do when the kids can't feel the beat and pull off those rhythms and train effects themselves. This is even worse, in my view, because this REVISAL is dumbing shit down for the damned audience, and I'll count that among those changes. They apparently felt today's audiences needed something more ear-catching than a bunch of salesmen talking in rhythm. And here we are.

[singdaw]

Tell us how you REALLY feel, DR ChasSmith.

[singdaw]

 

[singdaw]

ps - agree with you, 100%.
