Sadly, I had to turn down the opportunity to play in a college production of Into the Woods because it overlaps one of those others. That’s a piano part I’ve wanted to tackle. I’ve only ever played the synth book which largely consists of celesta and sound effects such as the cow and the baby and the squish and enough tacets to read War and Peace in.

That's too bad, ChasSmith.  Hopefully, you'll get to someday!

I remember back in the '90s, a children's summer theater program did Into the Woods, and their only "orchestra" was a single piano accompaniment played on an acoustic piano...not even a keyboard with sound effects!  The pianist was my friend Eric who sadly died last year, but he was an incredible pianist and accompanist.

As I'm sure you know, not every pianist is a good accompanist. ::)

We’ll probably watch Groundhog Day tonight.

The musical is opening tonight at one of the venues in Stamford, and I will catch that in another week or two.

That's pretty cool.

As a not so hot singer - I would certainly agree that a good accompanist with a sense of humor is invaluable.

Since you now have your fingerprints on file DR CHAS SMITH, it will not help to use an alias during your escapades and monkey business.

It seems a piano keyboard would be a nightmare for forensic investigators. So many many fingerprints.   :)

Glad the battery replacement was relatively painless, DR Jrand72.

I wonder if the fingerprinting is done electronically or if it is done digitally?

I am sure DR CHAS SMITH will let us know.

From DR TCB:

Quote
Lena Horn, being not only a singer, but a movie star, insisted on being allowed to stay at the hotel where she was performing. They allowed her to do that, but every morning they burned the sheets.

 Shocking and stupid as in a waste of money.

A double shame the sheets couldn't have been donated to those in need.

Thursday afternoon greetings!  We have been to see Richard's surgeon for his 2-week follow-up and she says he doesn't need to see her again (unless there's a problem).

My adventure today will be crossing over the state line and getting fingerprinted by the great state of Noo Yawk. And paying $101.75 for the privilege. Thankfully, that’s being reimbursed by the nice folks hiring me to play Chicago at a high school next month.

One or two Connecticut towns have my prints on file as well. I’d best stay in line and keep my nose clean, you think?

I think so ;)
