You can try. I always look ridiculous in more than like, eyeliner and mascara.

Carl-E:
So the concert chorale spring concert's tonight.  I need to be on stage in my tux by 6:30. 

We're doing Faure's requiem with a small (but mighty!) orchestra for the second half.  The first half is a really... diverse arrray of choral pieces.  From Gershwin (Someone to Watch Over Me in a really cool arrangement) to negro spirituals (Ain't-a That Good News, the first spiritual I ever sang 30 years ago, in a Tuskeegee Choir arrangement) to religious pieces (including a hebrew prayer piece, Shehechiyanu, and one called The Last Words of David) all the way to... hell, I don't even know how to classify some of them. 

Basically, since it's our current director's last concert, it's everything he ever wanted to do with us but never got a chance to in the last 10 years. 

The man is a powerhouse of vocal music.  Before I joined, a friend in the chorale had said that every rehearsal was like a master's class - and they were right, it's amazing to work with him, even though I was only able to for one year.  I'll miss him... but we've already auditioned a new director, and though he seems quite different, he also seems every bit as good! 


But no one in my family's able to come... my wife has a performance of her play tonight (Elephant's Graveyard), my older daughter couldn't get off work, and my younger daughter might be able to come if she can cope with the headaches.  Which means probably not, and I don't want to strand her out there while I'm on stage if she suddenly goes south. 

Well, we'll see what happens.  I'm stoked! 

Redball:
Quadraphonic recording or it didn't happen! And a picture or two.

Metope:
Not really sure which thread to put this in, but I guess this is as good a place as any. On my way to class today I saw the most disgusting and disturbing thing I've come across in a while, a dead seagull, which its head removed and what looked like grass stuffed into the neck cavity. There were feathers everywhere around it, so it looked like there had probably been a struggle. I know animal cruelty happens of course, but seeing it for myself really upset me, what kind of sick, twisted person can do something like that?

Patrick:
hey I just met you
and this is crazy
but I'm on bath salts
and yr face looks this seagull's tasty
