I asked the guy to sing a line to sub for another who wasn't there and he refused because it might throw HIM off. Huh! Then he says he pronounces Dulcinea as *DULL* see-nay-ah because people who don't know Spanish *expect* it to sound that way. I talked to the director and got that straightened out real quick. The Director pointed out right in the beginning about the very thing you mentioned, the weakest link. And you expect ME to come down to his level so all of the links will be *equal*? Never! He has a good, strong baritone voice while mine is a Tenor/Bari mix but the guy could barely read the music and took up a lot of time with that which wasted everybody else's. There were 7 people who tried out for that part and he was the very last I would have ever chosen but they did choose him and I accept that. Yes, I have to work with him even though I know I am a better singer and actor. In no way will I ever compromise my own work just to make him look better as the lead player. That will be up to him, so if he can't rise to the occasion, he gets the bad review in the papers saying that the rest of the cast stole the show from him. This is the same show where I had to step in 10 years ago and save the guitar player from ruining it by showing him how to tune the guitar and yes, by *inventing* a new way to tune it which you, of course condemned. Guess what, they are again having trouble finding a guitar player who can and will do the role and so I am anticipating having to do the same again. I will not even think about you and the several other people who said that it is not *possible* to tune the guitar like that because I know it is because I did it and still have the video tape from it. If I lived my life according to what everybody else thinks and says I should do, I wouldn't have a mind of my own at all. You can hate me for it, despise me for it, delete me for it, tell me not to post on the list or come to the Convention but I'll still keep on doing what I do the way I do it because it is better art than what you would have me produce. I lead, I don't follow. What you try to do is stifle. Let's see you come up with something worth considering for a change. I gotta go to rehearsal now where we do the combat scene and I put the bucket over that guy's head.
