Today was our second day off from the tour, we have played about five shows, and each one has brought its own special experience.\u00a0 We loaded into Mahaiwe Theatre in Great Barrington Ma, and used a pre focused dance plot, this gave me a chance to make sure I was comfortable calling the show, and it was an opportunity to play with color choices.\u00a0 After our MA performance the snow began to fall and we pushed off to Albany NY.\u00a0 In Albany we had a great union crew and I got to spread my wings on the full lighting package.\u00a0 Naturally we hit most of the technical problems at this venue.\u00a0 We learned some of the crew hired to build the show was not as skilled r\u00e9sum\u00e9s led us to believe, and some of the aspects where built incorrectly.\u00a0 Clay came to see this show, which was the first moving light show, and we danced on the stage after the house was cleared.\u00a0 I sussed out many of the technical issues made a plan, and then pushed off for Albany.\u00a0 IT was as Albany we decided that the show needed to be cleaned up, I made a plan with the local at Virginia Beach to help de loom the rig and I went from 4 cable trunks to 1.<\/p>\n
Our bus is our own little home, and the people have been great to get along with.\u00a0 We are all very mindful of personal space and property, and we bring war stories, laughs, songs, and dances to the table.\u00a0 Every day we try to learn a new word of Russian from our to Ruski Costumer\u2019s<\/p>\n
At night the bus pulls out and we usually drive for about 10 hours, right now we are waiting for warren to come back and begin the push to Tulsa OK.\u00a0 The sound of the engine and the geni lull most of us to sleep and the 10 of us get whisked across state lines.\u00a0 Two days ago I woke up to a bay, and this morning I woke up to the great Cowpocalypse of 2011\u2026<\/p>\n
Luckily we had to pull off the road to fix a headlight and it put us about 5 mins behind a major big rig accident in which cows escaped a trailer and got in the way of trucks\u2026\u00a0\u00a0 We passed the flaming wreckage of big rigs and the smoldering carcasses of cows and each of us grew quiet as we contemplated how lucky we had been.\u00a0\u00a0 We literally sat in a stand still for 4.5 hours while the crew cleaned the road up.<\/p>\n
I have been cooking and going out with the crew and staying up late on our leather couches and I am having a blast.<\/p>\n
Seacoast Is moving forward, and I trust that Erik is putting that show in with confidence and expertise.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I look forward to telling you more soon!<\/p>\n
