Couch Tomato Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Yay for the sell out...I know people have been concerned... and the reports from the west coast didn't look good. Although I do happen to think THAT has more to do with the fact that it is early November I can barely hear the cellstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ansamcw Posted November 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 From CV, CB: The words to Angela's song are very sad... and they fit the strory-line so well...but yeah... she can get a little overwrought at the end... sometimes the cellcert sounds a lot 'screechier' on the higher notes, might not be as shrill in person ? ----- I think the higher tones of Angela's voice don't carry over the cell phones so she ends up screeching at the receiver's end. ---- oh, i love celebrate me home! ----- EEEEE!!

Ansamcw Posted November 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Post concert report: cellstream reporter laughed cos she saw Clay roll his eyes at the cat calls during the start of the 2nd half they passed on Beverley's wig down the line ans they were goofing off... Andy started too early for DSIAFCD so CLay said he has a happy triger finger so Clay said so lets jsut start DSIAFCD... when clay was singing before the glory note he was holding the wig...then he tosses it while he sings and he picked it up and palced it on JAcob... He was wearing his blakc outfit for last part. ---they have UNICEF in the lobby. --- CROWD GOES ABSOLUTELY INSANE!

Ansamcw Posted November 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 From OFC via CH: During intermission, my husband and I got talking with the sound man. We had said hello at Portland, since we were sitting right by the equipment. He told us how difficult it is to blend the sound in a production like this. He said that he has 38 years experience, much of it with musicals, and he told us about the importance of allowing the emotion to come through in the sound. He said that loud concerts are easy and they have lots of tricks to make them sound good. He said Clay's work was very difficult and takes much more finesse. I hope I have summarized his comments correctly. He was very interesting and and friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
