Mommy had all their records. I even have a bootleg vinyl for "Get Back". Can't wait to see the new movie!
Wow, livejournal! I had all but forgotten about you. It's school world for me now. We cast Joseph and our first rehearsal is Monday. I'm getting the band together for it, going over the music and picking out solos, and working on tough spots (where's my metronome that beats 7/8 and/or 9/8?)
Going on a photo store run today, for more tanks and reels. My photo group is three times the size it was last year, so I need more supplies!
Finally closing down the swimming pool for the year. I wish we could take it out and put a large hot tub in its place.
Tomorrow is the MD wine fest!
Can't say when I'll be back on here.
Trying to pick the musical for my school which will be in February! We're doing Annie at the girls' school. SO EXCITED. I'll be musical director for that. I think I have the choices down, so why not a poll?
Things to keep in mind: I want a more contemporary story and score, so I'm leaning toward the jazzy or pop/rock selections. Ideally we'd like more of an ensemble cast. Show needs to be fairly popular so we get a good turnout. No fairy tales this time.
