This thread is definitely the best fun to be had with a piece of... er... hardware and a modem  ;D ;D ;D

After gentle encouragement from some kind folks in the chatroom I brought JBB to life, fully expecting to have only the briefest of times in the spotlight, but instead I found a wonderfully warped partner in my bud Terry Cloth. Now I can't imagine not having my daily fix of THE PERFORMANCE.

But... ahem... enough about me. This thread is where I can show my appreciation of those whose lines have tickled my fancy in oh so many varied ways  :laugh: :P.

To the finest of ensemble casts... I thank you.

To Lucise... for the inspired creation that is Indapaddock :laugh:.

To Pipedream... for the wonderful Owl family - love those photos (where do you find them?). And LOVING the musical interludes  :D.

To Meryl... my guts have regularly ached from laughing at the crazy antics of HP. You have a Monty Python sized imagination there  :laugh:.

To Daniel... *fans self with magazine*. As I said on the thread, if you ain't already writing those steamy novels none of us ever admit to reading (Ah, yes... I'm reading 'War & Peace'. The Snooty Edition is such a fine translation you know *cough, cough* ;)), then you sure as hell should be. You and DeeDee are sure raisin' the temperature in this room...

And lastly, but definitely not leastly, to the gorgeous Alec - my partner in crime grime - who inspires me to ever new heights of silliness  :-*.

Take a bow...

In a rare effort to set aside their famous grumpiness... Statler and Waldorf told me today that they're quite enjoying the proceedings.  Applause all around!

Music for TS2.... Well there has been a large amount of debate among the performers/directors of TS2, as to what music would be best suited to this scene.

We have Dee's "This Magic Moment"

http://www.accessyourinnerlight.com/JacksMagicMoment.mp3

Jane wanted something romantic and dreamy, which made me think of "On Your Shore"

http://www.dreamfilminstitute.com/shore.mp3

Strange how my heart beats
To find myself upon your shore.
Strange how I still feel
My loss of comfort gone before.

Cool waves wash over
and drift away with dreams of youth.
So time is stolen
I cannot hold you long enough.

And so
This is where I should be now.
Days and nights falling by.

Days and nights falling by me.
I know of a dream I should be holding.
Days and nights falling by.
Days and nights falling by me.

Soft blue horizons
reach far into my childhood days
as you are rising
to bring me my forgotten ways.

Strange how I falter
to find I'm standing in deep water.
Strange how my heart beats
to find I'm standing on your shore.


And of course, my recommendation: "When Two Become One" by Sarah Connor, which we're still trying to download.

Hello Anke:

I just listened to this song again, and man-o-man what a beautiful song!  Thank you so much for finding it for the Performance Thread Anke Spanke!!  It fits perfectly! :-* :-*  ;D

Jane

** Without saying anything about it, the whole crew knew how it would go for the rest of the summer. Sheep be damned!! ** ;D


(play me!)

I WANT TO WAKE UP WITH YOU - Boris Gardiner

I wanna wake up with you
I wanna be there when you open your eyes
I want you to be
The first thing that I see
I wanna wake up with you

I wanna lay by your side, baby
I wanna feel every beat of your heart
And throughout the night
I wanna hold you tight
I wanna wake up with you

All the love inside me has been sleeping
Waiting till the right one came along
You can share the love that I've been keeping, baby
You can put the music to my song

I wanna wake up with you
I wanna reach out and know that you're there
I want you to be
The first thing that I see
I wanna wake up with you

And throughout the night
I wanna hold you tight
I wanna wake up with you

All the love inside me has been sleeping
Waiting till the right one came along
You can share the love that I've been keeping
You can put the music to my song

I wanna wake up with you
I wanna reach out and know that you're there
I want you to be
The first thing that I see
I wanna wake up with you


Then the clouds opened up and God said, "I hate you, Alfafa."

MEMO

P R I V A T E    A N D    C O N F I D E N T I A L

TO:         DeeDee (Ennis Del Mar)
               Daniel (Jack Twist)
CC:         Mr. Raymille (Director)
               Anke (Props Magician)
FROM:    Jane (Continuity Director), Acting on behalf of Director Raymille
RE:          Music for TS2

Hi DeeDee and Daniel, great show tonight, both of you!  Just a quick note since we seem to be on different schedules these days, I wanted to let you know that IMO the need for a romantic dreamy song has been most successfully met by our fine and beloved Props Magician Anke Spanke.  She included a most dreamy and romantic song "I Want To Wake Up With You" just a day or so ago, so there is no need to look any further for that particular style of song.  And so, going forward (and backward!) I think both of you should feel free to insert any and all songs you choose to include, without hesitation.

Okay, I'm on board with the song.. Had a tear or two, so I know its perfect.

Thank you, Jane! Glad you liked the song. I agree: everybody should just post what he/she feels like. Don't hesitate, even if it's the weirdest of all music!   
This is supposed to be fun, isn't it?  ;)

Well since this song was posted relatively close to the scene on the PT, I really don't see any need to go back and repaste it into one of ours.. :)

Holy snickers!

After meeting Daniel and the girls in the chat room a couple nights ago, I agreed I would look over THE PERFORMANCE. Well let me tell ya. I looked it over all right! It's taken me two whole days to read it from one hysterical line to another. It's the funniest most creative peice of collaberated work Iv'e ever read .I have laughed my butt off reading this.There are surely some of the most imaginative and funny and creative people on the planet working on this!

The only thing I did'nt like about it was this:  My friend and I watched BBM last night again for the 20th time and I could'nt get The visions of all of your characters dramas {especially Terry and JBB] going on at the same time I could'nt get them out of my head!. I found myself in quite a uplifted comical mood watching the film {even broke out laughing quite a few times thinking about ya all} instead of my usual serious BBM mood. My bud asked me a couple times what was so funny and I told him he has got to read THE PERFORMANCE and he would understand. I just hope that this has not turned BBM into a comedy for me.  But I guess if it has I have gotten my share of gloom and doom out of the movie anyways.

Point is...I love your new version! It's really the funniest thing. You should all be really proud of yourselves. And the love scenes....whew!  Can't wait to have some more of this.

Oh and Lucise: you are hysterical!

Now get back to work...I need more!!!
