wow
.
gee, it's raining again. go figure. interesting show today. after nailing the intro, i moved to my computer to discover that it was off. the computer was off... no script. i tried to turn it on. nothing. the power strips here have individual on/off switches and the crew has made a habit of switchign them off. who knows why? so, i figured that they had switched the power off for that pc. i began trying to fix whatever the fuck was wrong as victor read his first letter. not enough time. i moved to victor's pc to read my first letter... this went on for a few letters. each of us scrambling to get the fucking pc on and then reading a letter. victor finally discovered that my pc had been unplugged a tiny bit. he plugged it in and turned the machine on. i heard the familiar "bling" of the machine powering up. now all i had to do was wade through the ten error messages during bootup. some aol thing... dunno... we were about 5 minutes in before it began running normally. it was fine. didn't lose the audience at all. i think it may have helped us a bit, even. victor has hit a stride and i believe i have, as well. it will be odd only doing the show two nights a week when we get back. hmmm.... it was a nice show. not a huge house, but respectable. i would really like to sell out a few more times. that is a great feeling. seeing that board announcing that we're sellouts. hmmm... only ten more days of the festival. i'm finished already. i'm ready to move on. remind me next year to make sure that i get a per diem and a place to stay with fewer than six hundred roommates. also. remind me to not come. thank you. ten more shows. the pc cowboys are having a difficult time. low morale it seems. better them than me, i guess... it's a shame. it's a fun show. they should have a huge crowd. bastards. my knees hurt. becky, the person from edcom4 in charge of my show, gave me some sort of pain killer with coedine coDean. it helps some. i need a knee transplant maybe. fuckers. i do enjoy beanscene coffee shop. they showed crouching tiger hidden wire today on the tv. that was cool. what a freaky ass movie. not as freaky as deciding to go to scotland for a fucking month. logging what goes on before, during and after producing the two person show "Dean Cameron's Nigerian Spam Scam Scam" at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and beyond.
