It makes sense why beautifully arranged chord changes have always touched my soul.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think the initial auditions were around St. Patrick\u2019s Day.  I\u2019m pretty sure we saw each other that day, and talked a little.  It was all business so there wasn\u2019t much time.  Then the meeting the day before rehearsals began two weeks later.  We spent the night together.  I think because we both fell asleep listening to the radio and finishing the bottle we got from the production manager.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were so young, so bold, so determined to neck all night as we worked all day.  It was a great show full of great people, and that producer was a Big Six who cared more about us being good than him making money.  He ended up marrying that Sarah bird, did you know?   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was easy to hide how goofy we were for each other during rehearsals.  It all came apparent during that preview at the Hotel Del Coronado when we both showed up together a minute late after lunch break.  Big Six was nifty\u2014I think he already knew but wanted to give us a chance.  \u201cOh my watch must be slow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy bank only has one customer on this tour.\u201d  I said that so many times the first month on the tour.  \u201cNot all flappers are pushovers.\u201d The phrase I uttered almost as often, but mostly to the drugstore cowboys I\u2019d see when I\u2019d go shopping with the other chorus girls.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And I know that being questioned about why I was with HIM 9 decades later might have been a false alarm.  Yes it was familiar, but HE was not.  It makes me laugh because it makes so much sense now.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>KING PORTER STOMP!  Another piece of the puzzle that just started to make sense!  I recognized that tune!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So much to consider, so much to learn, so much to sculpt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Only in the 21st century could I listen to what was familiar in another dimension.
