A really fun sold-out show tonight at the Roustabout Theatre’s home in the Wells Fargo Center in Santa Rosa, CA. Amy Ryder sang even more beautifully than she did twenty years ago when I first met her, and the kids in the Apprentice Program did a fantastic job with some very difficult music. One more show tomorrow (Sunday) at 3 pm! Details here.
It was tough putting the set list together for this one because the choir had learned five songs and two of them were opening numbers and three of them were finales! I think I came up with a good pace for the show, but I was futzing with the order until the very last minute.

We loved your Sunday show. 13 is one of our favorite musicals and we brought my daughter and her three friends (all 13) to see your show. We really enjoyed the selection of music you played and your funny storytelling — especially about the song for your friend’s wedding. Thanks for your gift of music.
I also saw this performance and was delighted at all the songs and particularly what a great live performer you are.
Amy Ryder performed a song that had the lyrics “Between the look and the look away…” I LOVED this song – what is it called? – I didn’t see it mentioned in the set list above ( or is it?) – Is there a recording of it anywhere or is it going to be in a future show? – Thank you for all the amazing music that I cherish and listen to over and over – you are truly a gifted composer.
[FROM JRB: Hey Eric – that song was “One More Thing Than I Can Handle,” I expect that it will show up on my next album. Glad you like it as much as I do!]
