It rained early this morning.  The temp is 74 degrees so the doors and windows are open for awhile.

It is overcast so the sun is NOT shining through.

DR FREDDIE I know of no plans for streaming but will ask about it this week and see if anything like that is happening.

Or even if not in real time, maybe a version that can be shown later? 

That could be used to generate interest in doing the play.

A few of you saw housemate Kristi's post about TITANIC, and I have to say I could easily have sat through its last two performances in addition to ours. Not for $200 a pop, but, you know.

For this score in particular, I have to consider this Encores! presentation a once in a lifetime treat. You're never going to hear it like this again.

It was TCB who was something of a Titanic fanatic, wasn't it? I don't recall the origin of that for him.

Kristi is another one, but she has always been obsessed with studying both natural and human-created disasters. I had given her BK's Varese compilation CD of TITANIC a long time ago, and she insisted on taking that to the NYC Kritzerland show to ask BK to sign it.

Um, no. I thought it was, indeed, being streamed or zoomed. Am I so wrong? Woops!

Anyhoo...

I almost had to think the sound at yesterday's performance was the best, most exquisitely balanced, most satisfying blend, of anything I've attended yet at Encores! And thank God for that. But they do it well there, as a rule.

Someone posted that the amplification at FOLLIES the other night - in Carnegie Hall, of all places - was notably awful.

Hoping it turns out that you're right!

A lull in the morning. It’s going to be a long one.

Sunday morning greetings!  Since it’s a litter cooler today, I might venture outside.  Or not.

I tried to listen to the OBC of Titanic on the treadmill this morning, but my earphones kept disconnecting.

It is 78 degrees with a nice breeze - so I don't think I need the A/C today.
