The Fight Song
It’s Time to Start (writing a blog post)
Well friends, fans and strangers, it’s time for another entry in the blogosphere finally. There have been a number of things that have gone on since my last post. Work at WebMD continues to be busy, the Personal Health Record area is starting to get a lot of attention, the house is gutted and being remodeled, and there’s this drum corps called the Oregon Crusaders which is getting all charged up and ready to rock the heartland.
Whew, so where do I start? Well, since the Oregon Crusaders is on the verge of their first performance (dress rehearsal in 2.5 hrs), I’m going to start and end with OC. We’ve had some ups and downs in membership, but the kids who are here are working their butts off and we’ve seen tremendous progress in the last few days (and it’s been 67-70 degrees and partly cloudy the entire time). The show Inner Connections is such a rich piece of work that it’s difficult to put into words. Every element of it has been written so that all sections contribute to a complex but engaging (and very demanding) show. Our bus seat partners have been determined, we’ve got the bus company and the trucking company ready to go, and we’re looking forward to a great season.
We were sorry to have to cut our first tour a show short. Our financial campaign has come up short, so we had to make some tough choices. But as hard as that decision was, it helped us to have complete confidence in the full eastern tour, where I’ll be “Back home again in Indiana.”
If you liked our show last year, just wait until you see this one! Hope to see you soon!
