DR Edi - have you tried my stand-by hotel, the Comfort Inn-Midtown on W. 46th St?

Unfortunately, they seem to be all booked up, too!

I can always stay at Peter's, but I have to take over his study and when the couch is open, there is almost no floor space. 6 people...1 bathroom. And he doesn't even have a fire escape!

Edi - Assuming you have no dog allergies, would you be up for a noonish brunch at our place (we're at 43rd & 10th) before whatever show you see on the Sunday of your visit?  

If you guys are up for that, the we'll invite the rest of the HHW NYC crew, too.

I drink coffee every morning
I love stopping for a Mocha on the way to work
I don't drink tea.
I don't drink alcohol.
I don't drink cola.

I hardly ever drink anything caffeinated after noon.

My drink of choice is Cranberry Juice mixed with 7-Up or Sierra Mist - NOT Sprite.

We have no dog allergies---we absolutely love them but our lifestyle isn't condusive to having anything but cats right now. And we would be honored to partake of brunch! We know the area well, too...we used to stay very close to there.

Oh boy!

BUT YOU WOULD???

Don't mean to pick on you, Jane. I just can't fathom spending that much on a handbag. it's the price of a new car--a nice car!! And think of how many CDs and DVDs you could buy...Talk about lots of Amazon orders! Kritzerland, too! Maybe even enough money for that documentary EDI was talking about...

$45,352 for a purse!!  Or a car??  My parents bought their house for only $28,000!!  Of course, that was in 1976, ::) so things were different, but still!

I bought mine for $26,000 in '79, and I will pay it off in a few months. That will be nice!

Not to sound too confident, but we're hoping for a good crowd at the Quads. I checked them out when I was up in January, and the theatres are very small. So you might consider buying tickets in advance just to make sure...

I would feel bad if anyone came down for the film and couldn't make it in.

Sounds great for Sunday April 1 at our place, let's say noon.

Other HHWers who can come (but only if you can really come, no April fooling :) ) please RSVP to me at my AOL address, DYLAN43RD.  Or any other AOL address you may have for me.  So we can have an idea of how many to plan for, let's set an RSVP date by Saturday, March 24, but earlier RSVP's are appreciated!

Nothing to report on from Rehoboth.  Other than that the weather has been enjoyably springy.

Dinner tonight will be quite simple.

Cheeseburgers.

Guacamole.

Fries.

And a fruit salad (honeydew and cantalope, blackberries, and orange segments, dressed with key lime yogurt).

Nice article! Hmmmmm...I wonder if anyone has good contacts for us to buy house seats for CURTAINS... Somebody who might know Mr. Rupert Homes and who has recently done him a big favor. Hmmmmm....

You also know someone who's playing rehearsals for John Kander, composer of CURTAINS!

Although, when David Burnham takes off his shirt.... I'm pretty sure DR MBarnum would like that.  *And since David has a nicer body that Matthew Morrison, and since the tour is staged for a proscenium house, there's more "flesh time" as it were.  ;)

I liked Aaron Lazar's classical looks on the PBS broadcast.

He sings Love To Me on his new solo album [I think on LML?], without the Italian accent, as well as a wonderful rendition of Jason Robert Brown's Someone To Fall Back On.

...One of the "almost train wrecks" at SETCs involved a young man who brought in the refrain of "Someone To Fall Back On".  Alas, since the melody is "off the beat" it can be a bit tricky to coordinate.  And then since the singer just wanted to start on his own after I gave him the pitch, it was a bit difficult for me to find his beat.  Thankfully, we both ended together, but everything that came before that...  -Those 10 bars felt more like 100 to me.


-But that was nothing compared to the girl who brought in another Jason Robert Brown song, "Just One Step".  I played her first pitch... She sang her first pitch... And that turned out to be the only pitch she hit correctly for the next 16 bars.  :-\

DR EDISAURUS - I am intrigued by the Drive-Invasion.

VIBES for DC HEATHER!!!  And cooking vibes for DR CASON.

So many things happening around here!  We are an energetic and creative bunch to say the least.

Do you supposed the Mother Abyss ever ate at Wolgang Puck's?

What about if there was a rap/hip hop version of a R/H show called:

South Pacific Avenue

Nellie is a singer who was voted off American Idol, and Emil is the judge who wanted to keep her.  But Nellie loves the owner of a Rap CD Label...and she must decide which culture she will live in....

Billis is the Italian gangster who holds the mortgage on said CD company, and Bloody Mary is his mother, so called because she is the main hit man of the organization.
