Seriously... Monday night was a bit frustrating. The handwritten music is hard to read and my songs are, as a rule, incredibly wordy and sometimes speedy. So, for people to try to site-read this crap... well, forget it! They sing it like...
"She's got her
hmmmphf on the line on
hmm hooo on the hmmmphf
where you're smmmmm truuuuu
golden door hmmmm
lure yummmmmmm
mmmmm die"
Something like that. So it was frustrating. Not really their fault but it seemed like nobody knew anything? ANYWAY, the night for me truly was saved when Jason (who plays Dylan) stayed after and sang "Sunday to Sunday" and then did a truly beautiful reprise of "Spread the Love". I told him he made everything better. He has this (sweet when need be) rock voice with a little splash of rasp and some piss and vinegar! Wonderful!
Tuesday night was much better for me. I could tell people, in the midst of their own busy lives, had taken the time to look over their music and it helped! Chris (Peddy) and Jason (Dylan) have about 4 songs (YES! 4 MALE DUETS!) and they really rock it out together. Looking forward to seeing them roaming around the stage belting these tunes! Anyway, just a generally better vibe in the room last night.
P.S. Tristan handed out a schedule and said it's "the scariest thing he's ever seen". There are 13 rehearsals remaining. 13! NOSE TO THE GRINDSTONE!!!
P.S.S. It's Chris Walljasper! In the picture! It's Chris Walljasper! He's playing Peddy and he also happens to be one of the partners in the Harrison Hilltop Theatre. Very fun to be around. Think maybe the 2 of us would be friends if we didn't already each have so many...
