Random Ten Housecleaning Day

Three performances left of Secrets History Remembers at The Brick. Nice little listing, with photo, in Gothamist. It looks like lots of people are coming Sunday; small houses thus far. It's been fun, but a bit annoying as the Powerpoint will not run consistently, with different lags and stutters in the transitions, so I can't be 100% correct in my timings. But good enough, and the show looks beautiful.

House cleaning of both literal and figurative kinds this morning - taking out the garbage, cleaning the litter box, doing the dishes, emailing potential actors for my Baby Jesus Festival play, "Marshmallow World," by Marc Spitz, and planning out a rehearsal schedule, calling the garage I go to to see about bringing the car in for a checkup and alignment, thinking about what in the hell I'm going to create as a "ten-minute original piece" for The Brick's 5th Anniversary party coming up, and spending bits of all the time vaguely thinking about next year's shows.

So, anyway, in between it all, a friday morning Random Ten:

1. "Cadillac" - Bo Diddley - The Chess Box
2. "Saga of Jenny" - Lotte Lenya - Kurt Weill: American Theater Songs
3. "Maria" - Brian Eno & James - Wah Wah
4. "Black Night" - Daniel Janin & J.C. Pierric - Melodie en Soul Sol
5. "Make Me Belong To You" - Sandy Coast - Nederbeat The B-Sides 4
6. "Baby I Need Your Loving" - The Four Tops - Hitsville U.S.A., The Motown Singles Collection 1959-1971
7. "Full Speed" - Claude Bolling - Stereo Ultra
8. "Nothing Will Ever Be The Same" - Off Beats - Dumb Looks Still Free
