burntcopperFeeling somewhat dopey since stumbled into work today, and it hasn't really left. Oh well.
Convention was ridiculously awesome. halfway through write-up of it. Dear Brian Austin Green, how are you so hot? No, really... Oh, and the man has the 'one humiliating/bad experience in acting/audition to rule them all' answer. 'Ten years of 90210.' It flattens all pretenders to the crown and stomps on them with prejudice.
Remind me never, ever to get into a high-speed semi hip-hop dance-off. We were exhausted immediately after, and then stupidly did it again an hour later (except I kept tangling his feet). Also most confused that our mates couldn't do the Fresh Prince rap from 'Boom Shake the Room'. Tut. What have you been doing with your teens, people?
VOTD trailer. Dribble. Want nao, plz.
Went to see Daniel Boys do his cabaret again at Wilton's Music Hall on Graces Alley in Tower Hamlets (it's about 8 minutes walk from Tower Hill). Which was pretty much the same as his Pizza in the Park cabaret, except there were many more unintentional naked jokes. Julie Atherton was guesting, and her Taylor the Latte Boy is genius. The sound in there was *amazing* - they didn't really need mics as it's a victorian music theatre purpose-built for amazing acoustics, hasn't been cleaned in forever (original decor still in place, including a bunch of Indian portraits at one end) so has that falling-down shabby stepped back in time feel. And has a rather nice bar. They're trying to get it going as a cabaret venue again. We kept staring around us and going 'No, really, why has this not been scouted as a film/tv location?' It'd be bloody perfect for something Neverwhere-esque.
