CB's
The CB's show was an unmitigated success. When does one ever get to report an unmitigated success on a blog?
The crowd was almost entirely newcomers, so I was able to tell jokes to an audience who didn't already know the punchlines. The performers were brilliant, I felt satisfied that I did a good job warming up the crowd for Lord, Lord himself totally justified all the effort I put into making this happen, the show ran flawlessly, everyone laughed, people bought CDs, I remained completely sober, the show was a good length (with a break before the Cucumbers), all the performers met and complimented (one could also say "complemented," but I did mean "complimented") each other, lots of people were introduced to burlesque through Nasty's act, and I am satisfied as a producer.
I currently have a full-on case of laryngitis, but I am extremely pleased that my voice lasted throughout the show -- just a bit low and throaty and raspy -- before cutting out completely somewhere between the end of the show and the diner meal I ate around 1am during which I had to motion over the waiter and point to menu items. The waiter was very nice and brought me tea and an entire Honey Bear full of honey. I don't even like honey, but it's nice to have a sympathetic-looking man bring you a sympathetic-looking plastic bear.
What's next? Well, I'm not telling you. It's a secret.
