and i had a great time in may we were at the broadway league conference we chatted a little bit with solti but he was just pissed that he had been invited i had there you go i could only take so many people but chuck and i had the great fortune to seeing hamilton i finally the harvard club i'm obviously never been there before and oh it was just a beautiful beautiful event but then that night you copped out you were supposed to go with i don't know i was just feeling a little burned out the cough i've allowed to be tired once we got invited to a midnight show i i mean i saw nine shows that week because the broadway play conference and they invited us to a doll's house part two as i had to read the notes because i'd never seen dollhouse part one o had you read it and i had not but i read the cliff notes or whatever they're called now and oh my god what a great job you know chris cooper and laurie metcalf but it's a doll's house in period costumes  and with clean necks in and modern props and it was and they were cursing left and right and so it was an actor's special actor's program and so we saw that at midnight and then you know you start the next day and you have  capital i know well we have had we've been at the heart is the word people and that is one of the great perks of this conference is the shows will have a lunch and they'll perform some of the scenes and then they'll have a cocktail party before and after those even if you close i hear i hear well i thought charlie and the chocolate factory and unfortunately christian borel was out sick yes but they had some lunch i mean they put chocolate on everything chocolate chip in shock oh my gosh elsewhere and then of course had another conference recently which tony did go to this is the florida facility manager slash florida presenters and this one's over in west palm and we had all sorts of experts on security and building best practices and so forth and so on and some of the agents were downright and that's the other thing i i did before and after the conference i try to go to every agent who is in a broadway agent because the broadway agents are at that they're right there right there you can't miss them but i go diana ross was tacky pictures of the gowns and my gosh more and of course these big huge capes she came in with and she's a tiny little girl too and she had her dog a daughter with her i think her but anyway we also have on sale celtic thunder and they're coming with the symphony and that's november fifteenth right and then one of my favorite shows why do you love because i have never seen the movie i have never heard of this probably about six or seven years ago and my girlfriend from my school days said you have got to get these people and i don't always listen to my friends but this time i was right she was right and they were great and they are nov sixteenth so here is a little little place a to check we have put subscriptions on say oh really exciting we have

fans that follow you everywhere oh yes and this year you're here with job movement yeah on august twenty fifth yes obviously a friday so what can we expect you to be signaling  make sure at the field there needs and like put in a little bit of everything so the good thing about that movement is i can send them any song any job and they're like all right let's do the right way to do yes so we're excited about doing friday fest this year because we're going to pull a lot of new songs out of the box that's great and so that starts around five to five thirty it starts and goes to like nine and you sing a number of sets and last year you were the talk of the summer yeah you know they say song of new place to go to get started singing my dad was a d j he would d j every weekend basically what i do now i sing on weekends but he would play music all day and i what i would do is i would get a hairbrush how so what advice would you give to other aspiring performers my advice is try to be different try not to be like everyone else that's why i try to cover all different genres of music because i well children that really love you oh yes and we find a face we do we will be doing another segment where we bring a lot of the kids on say the let them jump around and dance and sing they really enjoyed it so we of course will be bringing it back but we just had diana ross here recently and i did a men's owl and both of them brought kids up but of course i didn't know you know let it go from pros that is so we have all the little else is up there and then with diana ross the kids just knew all the words and it's the best and that's great i know what you're working with virginia haley has been great in working on the bay front and it's really wonderful did you ever think about going moving on going to new york or l a with your singing i thought about  of those singing shows because you know way too tangible i was always saying you know when we were having read the franklin he's like can't tell the open there in that a member of the didn't make it here but you know but anyway i basis of through the two years of serving the peace corps i feel like i have brought some looking back in and seeing what i have given i can honestly say that i've seen ten times as much explore how the peace corps can fit into your future i can't wait to see she is just marvelous and i have seen her in so many different places so many different hairstyles oh my gosh and some of the sunglasses she wears and she actually met her and we were talking she was sitting across from me at a table and i looked at a seat you might have the longest nails i've amazes me i've sat in the first row a couple times just to see the seat flying back and forth if i tried that once i would have kicked my partner so hard on the way they spin their feet on the legs when i thought you were going to say i've handled a lot of tango dancers no i've never handled  you know there's actually a show i haven't seen on the season i did not see a gentleman's guide to life on burger and i did and i think you're going to love it it's just it's just a really wonderful comic show a musical of course at the same time so it's a gentleman who discovers one that  it won the tony for best musical he is the ninth in line to succeed the head of their family and received a huge fortune and it's all designs of how to remove the eight people ahead of him in very funny and intriguing ways so watching like the police thing we can't get over is that it can rain across the street not be raining here and i'm like yes and you'll see they're driving down the highway going eighty miles an hour and suddenly goes away before i know you know rainbows everywhere well we have kettle of fish coming in july july twenty that was one little kid with the drug to be allowed to sit next to the drummer the whole way he would he thought he was making all the music was so fun well you know it's good for them because this is how kids get started and then i'm going to miss reverend barry and his  day where you rough it out but you know hopefully i'll be with you in spirit when we can put you like on our phone and there you go if that would be great it would be great but you know friday fest is fun because you could come out and you can dance and great dog too but have you brought champ i think you have a he does too but for an english bulldog there it's way too hot for him if you did friday says the seven word he would be he would be there he would be you know well chuck often i'd go out with chuck's wife and go to a movie and chuck and of course you know i'm already like caught on the year after when lion king so we're very excited and we look forward to seeing you very shortly the man wa
