Boy, that's a mouthful. We here at the production office in Cleveland are so excited to have this forum to talk about the big event coming to Louisville, very soon. Only 50 days until we all meet to rock out to the best rock music of all time. To keep you all in the loop, we are going to try to give a play by play backstage glimpse into the inner workings, warts and all, at AROTR HQ.
Today, so far, we have had 4 conference calls on Love, the album recreation. Participating were Hal Bruce, Mark Rashotte, Andy Forgie, and Mark Beyer of The Rigbys. Love is indeed a complex and exacting piece, and we all aim to make it perfect.
Our lead violin chair, Rachel Blanton, missed the calls because she was in traffic court for speeding...when will these kids learn?
Lisa and I spend time on tickets, wristbands, and band related matters. Carol Gifford, our PR guru, was strategizing some ideas to publicize Love, and the newly announced schedule.
The Louisville Convention and Visitors Bureau called to brainstorm an exciting pre event PR "stunt"..I'll keep you posted.
Throw in some band calls, some stage and sound issues, food concessions, ads, and equipment rentals and we are 1/2 way thru the day. Every day at AROTR HQ is a wild wide from start to finish. But we love it and we know you do, too
