Boston Garden Take Two I know it has been a while since the last update. Rigoletto rehearsals absorbed my life and I was unable to get a minute to breath. I also came down with a cold, due to the late nights of driving back from rehearsal no doubt. Even with the cold, opening night went really well and I am looking forward to singing again tonight and Sunday. The only thing about the Rigoletto that concerns me is how one of the chorus members has taken a dressing room for his own (all the principles share rooms and the chorus has 2 rooms for the lot of them). Whatever is in his head that makes him think he has the right to yell at people (chorus or principle) who go near his dressing room is beyond me.

On a totally separate note, the organizer from the Celtics called me again today. Apparently I did a good enough job with the National Anthem before Thanksgiving that they want me back tomorrow. There is a Hall of Fame college basketball game going on tomorrow that they want me to sing for. The game starts at 3:30 and will be broadcast on ESPN, so I am hoping that this time they play the National Anthem instead of commercials.
