• Worked on the final song (both the last song left and the finale of the play itself).
• Wrote some decent verses and found ways to incorporate a few of the previous songs in a medley of sorts.
• But the big news was that in writing the verse to explain the fate of one of the characters I realized that it was bad. As in, the way that character was handled was too dark; it doesn’t suit the light-hearted tone of the rest of the play.
• Kate and I brainstormed a few alternatives and I’ve asked Greg to start thinking of alternate narratives for her.
• So, the script still needs a rewrite. The size of which is to be determined.

• My pal Matt stopped by to lend me a kalimba with a built-in mic and looping circuitry. New musical toy to play with! Let’s see what happens.
  • He also asked me to make a recording of the loop that he has stored in there. There will be Radio Shack Frankensteining.
• Coincidentally, I was invited to participate in International Drone Day a few hours before Matt came by. The kalimba could be my way into that adventure. More to come.

• Dropped off Taylor at music shop for repair.

• Focused songwriting continues. I organized all of my quick cell phone audio recording ideas.
• Started refining the suite in Act I, Scene 5. That song will take a few days.
