A new view!

Hi!

OK, it has been a little while since I last posted...but not a whole lot has happened. 

Here's the update:

I started serving at Ellen's Stardust Diner about a month ago. At this job, not only do I serve, but I also have the pleasure of being a professional karaoke singer, LOL. The money is much better than Bubba's and it is much less aggravating than working at Bubba's. I am still building my "setlist" but it's coming along slowly. Today, for instance, someone told me that I have been working there too long to still be singing "My Girl". but I don't really care cause the guests seem to really enjoy it! I am very close to putting in my notice at Bubba's. I just want to feel a little more certainty with the Stardust. As soon as that happens, you better believe I will be out of the "Shrimp Factory" for good. 

In the world of auditions....I haven't really been to many lately. However, I will be auditioning for a production of Godspell just outside of NYC. I had a coaching last weekend to prepare. i am most interested in playing Jesus, but anything would be wonderful as Godspell is one of my favorite shows ever. Stephen Schwartz is amazing. I am planning on singing "Lost In The Wilderness" for the audition. It may be overdone, but I feel that it's just so appropriate for this particular audition. i coached it with Phillip on Wednesday and I think I've found a good way to attack the piece. Phillip has advised me to let go of my inhibitions and i think it has really helped my performance value. Now, if only I could reflect that in auditions. We'll see how it goes. I have a couple more auditions on the horizon. nothin immediate so I'll update about those later. That's all for now. I hope all is well!
