Only 14 more drives to the theatre until the end of the season and YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU....not that I'm counting or anything.

There are a couple of special events....September 24 and October 3....but I'm not counting those.

Tuesday morning greetings!  At noon I'll be Zooming into the book group at the library where my career began.  They're meeting in person, but offering the Zoom option.  That works for me because of this anvil I'm carrying around on my left leg.

I slept rather well, and I had a long dream about my Overture to Twelfth Night, of all things. Since its premiere in 2017, 47 years after I composed it, I've been thinking about revising it. There's much I like about it, but there are a couple of sections that I could have written better, and I think it's two short.

If anyone's interested, here's its 2017 performance, performed by the Southwest Ohio Philharmonic, a community orchestra, conducted by my friend Carmon DeLeone:

Glorious!

I was honored to be the composer's driver when he was in town for that 2017 performance.  It was especially thrilling to be in the rehearsal room when DR Elmore heard it for the first time.

From DR John:
Quote
In nothing I've read on her beyond the book does she ever come across as the victim of anybody else's influence. I realize that can be hidden, but it never fit the picture here.

I call the a smart move from her lawyers but not racist.  I hope the prosecuting lawyers are good and disprove that scenario.

I didn't mention the ending of One, Two, Three - after all that went before, Wilder tops it all with an incredible and hilarious visual gag that's one of the biggest laughs in the film. And for something the pundits would like to say wasn't a hit, it played ten WEEKS at the Paramount before going wide.

I recall it being a hit at the time.

I remember the packed houses and audience reactions with -- quite literally -- as much fondness as I do the movies themselves.

OMG, yes - What's Up, Doc? - one of the greatest examples of this. Unbelievable. There's nothing even close to that kind of experience today.

This past weekend, three or four of us were reminiscing about how funny this is, especially Madeline Kahn as the real Eunice Burns.

It's alleged that the missing lawyer has Covid and is hospitalized, but that's all third-party and no one has actually said where he is or confirmed any of it. Frankly, it reeks of delay tactics, but who knows?

The lawsuit from the former clerk makes it sound like he could have flown the coup, too, if he doesn’t have covid.
