musings

What a beautiful day.  It was warm and sunny and one of those special "between" spring days in Colorado. It's possible we could have another 10 inches of snow tomorrow.  That's what Spring is like here... you never know.  It's all wonderful though... gives us all something to talk about... or complain about... but it sure is a human connector. 
Had a couple of great shoots today.... a business guy at 8:30 am and then a couple of opera singers after lunch.
I'll publish the pictures in the next post, but for now I just wanted to say that I have so much fun doing what I do.
Dearly Departed is up and running.... come see it!~
Life is great!

Saturday shoots

Had a great couple of shoots on Saturday.  One was "Eddy and the Haskells".  I had played with a couple of these guys, so I knew it would be a good one.  The other was my long time friend Theresa Reid.  Have a look at some of these....

We opened!!

Well, after one of the shortest rehearsal periods in the history of theater (2 weeks) we opened!  There were a few rough spots, but all in all the show is still as funny and fresh as it was last time we did it.  I forgot my camera again, so no pictures...sorry!  You'll just have to come see it.
We've started putting on a little concert with "the Buds" after the show for those who want to stick around.  I think our original concept was to stand outside the theater as the patrons arrive... kind of a pre-show concept, but so far it's been too cold for that.
Yesterday matinee, Dana (Lucille) had a rather crippling migrane headache and couldn't go on, so Laura Lounge (our assistant director) went on with book and kicked ass!!  Good job, Laura!

Tech week

This is is folks!  Tech Week for  Dearly Departed. Pictures of this weeks rehearsals  available tomorrow and days to follow...
whoops too busy remembering to bring mandolin and costumes and forgot my camera.  Will bring tonight.
Last night, we didn't run the show... just the scene changes... still didn't get out of there until 10.
Tonight... dress rehearsal with our first audience.  Should be interesting.  This will be our first time through without stopping.
pictures tomorrow... promise!

another great shoot

Fun shoot!!. Yesterday was one of those fun, super-charged days . I got to shoot a couple of different headshots on Sarah, and then we got to do a studio glam shot and then a location character shot. So I got to try a couple of different things.  Here they are...

So excited!

The webcasts are here.  There are four of them and I'm going to introduce a new one every couple of weeks.  So.... here goes

Lazy Saturday

Had all these plans for today. No shoots, so I was going to stay home and get some "chores" done.  Christie was downstairs working on some stuff, so I got on the computer.  That was 3 hours ago.
What a putz!  I can spend more time on Facebook and blogs and email and surfing the net.  Guess the garage will have to wait.... oh I took a "Photo Booth" shot of me.

 

cute huh
