News at my rehearsal last night: in conjunction with the LoTR exhibit coming to the Museum of Natural Science, we're doing two more concerts of the LoTR Symphony.
Checked in with myself, and I'm still entirely geeked.
And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel.

LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".
A discussion of Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. If you're a pervy hobbit fancier, this is the place for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
When will that be, Dana?

Around July 4th. 8th and the 9th, I think.

Hm. I'll have to seriously consider a road trip. It might be doable.

The exhibit itself is worth the trip, I think.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
The major reason for plumping for the gift set of RotK, rather than just the extended, was the Symphony dvd. Which I understood and expected to be a performance, with maybe some commentary and background. It was a disappointment to watch and discover it to be fragments of performances, with much more how-we-did-it than symphony. New Line really needs to release a dvd--or at least a cd--of the complete symphony performed.

Because they haven't squeezed all the discretionary income out of Beverly, Jeff Mejia, Sumi and Kathy Astrom yet?

Hee. Well, I've resisted the action figures, the plastic weapons, the jewelry, the costumes, the chess sets, the snow globes and the lovely Gollum figurine. I can spring for a cd.
I am really interested in how Shore cut and pieced the many hours of music into a cohesive and thematic whole of traditional symphony length. So yeah, I'd love a cd. I know lots of folks would find watching chorus and orchestra boring as hell, but I'd buy a dvd if they'd release one.
