SIX!

[DR Iris]

DR Chas, have you heard the song “Once Upon A December”?
It’s from Anastasia, and sung beautifully by Liz Callaway.
It’s beautiful and extremely moving.

[DR Iris]

Thank you for the HHW vibes of comfort.
Needed and appreciated. ❤️

Just listened to the 2023 opening of the Sweeney Todd revival.

[DR Iris]

Nice to hear a 26-piece orchestra.
I was able to see the original cast as well as the L.A. production with George Hearn.
Len Cariou’s final exit gave me chills, as did many other scenes.

[singdaw]

It was magnificent indeed, DR DR Iris!

 On This Day in 1954, Bill Hailey released "Rock Around the Clock," the first rock song to top the Billboard charts.

TOD:

Another ASK BK question:

Is this one of the Bagley albums that Kritzerland has reissued?

BK’s version is wonderful.

Just listened to the 2023 opening of the Sweeney Todd revival.

Got a few goosebumps there. Flashbacks to my junior year.

[John G.]

Great bad audition stories, ChasSmith. Thank you kindly.

[George]

Thanks, BK! I know I must have ordered it at the time it was first offered.

(There's a lot of those to keep track of)       

Singdaw (and anyone else), have you ever been to https://castalbums.org/ ? You can create a profile and keep track if all the musical theater/theatre/theeder recordings* that you own, want to own, or just want to know about.  I've been using if for years, and have even contributed to the database...especially BK's Kritzerland recordings.

*Not operas or classical music recordings, though.

[singdaw]

Thank ye kindly, DR George.

[George]

A friend of mine likes to use the phrase "at ruinous cost" frequently.

That's a great phrase.

[singdaw]

Glad, as always, to oblige your friends and neighbors.

[singdaw]

And fellow Hainsie Kimlets.

[singdaw]

"Won't You Go Home, Bill Bailey" was not written about Bill Hailey.

[singdaw]

Although people often get them confused.

[George]

Thank ye kindly, DR George.

My pleasure, Singdaw!

[John G.]

Work day is done.

[ChasSmith]

Work day is done.

It's cocktail hour here (there's been time for so few of them lately), and I don't care who knows it.

Thank you!!

[ChasSmith]

I know you all will be very excited to hear that there will be another round of auditions...

just one week from tonight!

[George]

Not to get political (again) or anything, but another judge strikes again...in a good way (again):

Trump prohibited from posting evidence in hush money case to social media, judge rules

The judge largely sided with a request from the Manhattan district attorney's office about what Trump can publicly say about certain aspects of the case.

[George]

[Rodzinski]

I just posted on Facebook George Santos is the metaphor for the entire GOP: corrupt and rotten to the core.

It was removed for violating community standards.

I just saw the post still up. Meanwhile, you must have a "friend" who likes to rat you out to Zuck.

[John G.]

Having a James Beard-style cheeseburger with the cheese on the inside of the meat. Plenty of jalapeńos in there too. Plus, fried okra.

[singdaw]

Cheese on the Inside is the title of my next memoir.

[singdaw]

One more.
