Done about eight pages so far and need a break. So much time doing research - hours - once I actually write, it's fun.

[bk]

Have to get ne readers - i can't focus with these anymore and it's making things very difficult in terms of writing. Tomorrow I'll go to CVS and deal with it.

Well, this is interesting:

Paramount Could Violate Anti-Bribery Law if it Pays to Settle Trump’s ‘60 Minutes’ Lawsuit, Senators Claim

Very.

For one show several years ago, I believe it was Shrek, I'd documented so many errors in the Keyboard 1 programming (surely one of their more popular and heavily rented shows) that the owner of the company said he should hire me to go through all of their shows. He was mainly joking, but he was right, someone should be doing that.

The 2013 revival edition of Cinderella was also a disaster. We were the first ones requesting the programming for those books, and they were literally pounding it out in time for our rehearsals. It was rife with problems, especially being a rush job, and they were probably sick of hearing from me. He ended up giving us the rentals free of charge in compensation for my having to deal with so many issues, and that's practically unheard of.

Oh, my goodness! I can't imagine having to deal with that.

Not having to is one (only one ) benefit to working with prerecorded tracks.  But regardless, a live band is pretty much always better.

Good morning all! I signed up for next term's film class, "90 Years of French Cinema." It starts on the 26th and goes for 7 films, skipping one week in July. My wife has signed up too after seeing how much I enjoyed the last class.

Hope it's fun and you like the movies!

Good morning all! I signed up for next term's film class, "90 Years of French Cinema." It starts on the 26th and goes for 7 films, skipping one week in July. My wife has signed up too after seeing how much I enjoyed the last class.

I hope you watch The Blue Angel, with Marlene Deitrich playing the heartless boozehound harlot Lola Lola.

That would be a class in German films. Do you know, DR MichaelG, what the films will be?

The tentative list is:

• Port of Shadows (1938)
• Les Diaboliques (1955)
• Le Monte-Charge (1962)
• The Soft Skin (1964)
• The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972)
• La Balance (1982)
• Summertime (2015)

No Les Enfants du Paradis? My favorite French Film of all time!

No The Baker's Wife?

Good ratings news for the Tonys.

That's good.

I have given up on the Oscars and the Tony and the Emmy awards as I have not been to Broadway since before the pandemic and I just don’t care for the movies being released. The same thing for tv too many programs and too many shows that have little or no interest and I don’t want to pay for the streaming services

[George]

DR George, I hope you didn't forget to do Wordle.

I didn't!  Just got to it later than usual.

[George]

Ditto, Ditto, and Ditto...and I haven't been to Broadway since 1995.

[George]

I still buy cast recordings, but not as many as I used to.  I need to stop slacking in regards to the purchasing of said recordings!

This made me think of DR elmore3003, for some reason:

I don't have a tv, haven't been to a movie theater since the mid 90s. I've only seen two shows on Broadway, but I see the tours.

I can't remember the last CD I bought. I think my daughter gave me "Something's Rotten" for Christmas one year. How long ago was that?

[Laura]

I tossed all my CDs a while ago. The only ones I kept were if I knew the artist.

No The Baker's Wife?

Too long for this class!

Good night, friends.

And others.

Thirteen pages so far. Have to take a long break now, then I'll try to do a couple more. My eyeballs can't even focus anymore.

Had a grilled hot dog with chili cheese and onions  from the Beverly Glen Deli - boy do I miss Jerry's Deli - best chili cheese and onion hot dog ever.

[bk]

Dear Lord, how can it be eight o'clock already???

[bk]

I should probably have something else to eat but what?

[bk]

That is the question.
