Man, I hate doing pop concerts. The arrangements invariably suck. That said,
Losing Ashman at 40 to AIDS was one of the tragedies of modern American theater, though it's the tip of the iceberg of what that plague has cost us. Damn.

My folks called me today to let me know that a) they got a dog, and b) I should drive out and visit for a few days. Sounds like they either forgot about my violent allergy to dog dander & saliva (hives on contact, airway starts to close up around hour 6), or they remembered and are trying to find a subtle way to kill me.

I'm excited. I have been cooking up interesting boss fights for my PbPs. I think I did and interesting job
I'm sure you did.
You usually do interesting things. :)Of course, in YOUR PbP's, when you say 'Interesting' I hear
'We're gonna die!' ;P
EDIT- Or at least, 'Your in for the fight of your PC's life!' ;)

I don't think his special gris-gris bags work north of the Mason-Dixon line.

Agreed! I think the Menken/Ashman stuff was some of my favorite music from the concert. Menken is still great post-Ashman, but the lyrics he is working with don't necessarily measure up,
On a related note, my solo was the Lumiere bit in Be Our Guest, so Menken/Ashman for he win!
Also, the arrangement of "When You Wish Upon a Star" we did was, in my view, stunning.
And yes, pops concerts in general are not my favorite. But the kids in the audience dancing in the aisles and such made it worth it.

Actually, he's a chiropractor who has a side speciality fixing allergies. He rid my wife of her dog allergy several years ago. Used to be, if she was even in a room with a dog, her sinuses went haywire, eyes watered, and a host of other problems.
However, when I first saw his treatment I did liken it to voodoo.

Orlando, what the hell?
Yes that does suck. Especially since my wife was planning on going there later on this year with some of her LGBT friends. She is trying real hard to not freak out.

If only. Those are sadly not Ashman's lyrics.
My favorite bit is:
Beef ragout, cheese soufflé
Pie and pudding en flambé
We'll prepare and serve with care
A culinary cabaret.
Or...
Go on, unfold your menu,
Take a glance and then you
'll be our guest. Oui, our guest. Be our guest.
Brilliant rhymery.
