Earlier tonight was supposedly my last Battle-Prov show at The Spot. Indeed, if that's the case, it was also my last regularly-scheduled performance with DragonFly as it's currently constituted. It's been a fun and fairly fast six months from the 100º+ days of July at Fizz to the sub-zero temps and wind-chills of February at The Spot. In all, I've performed 12 shows in that time and if you go back through the blog, you can read about each -- with two of my performances being parts of "special" shows which weren't with DragonFly per se -- the "men of Battle-Prov" show and the Glut. So that means, 10 shows with DragonFly... hats off to my teammates.
This show: Our team was only four tonight - Keri Jo (Captain), Mike, Gabriel and me. That, of course, meant lots of stage time. We opened with Rap-Line and to my (horror or honor, I'm not sure which), I almost won -- I was the last member of my team standing! Our Ref, Kat, runs a tight show -- even when it's her coached team we're playing and tonight was no exception. The other team played a Rock Opera. We played Script (a combination of "blind line" and "stage directions" with Kat sending the three guys (including me) out of the room. I just managed to avoid the "do a cartwheel" direction which Gabriel picked up and made the best of. I did pick up "hold a foot smelling contest" which was interesting.... We then played Story which I won (we had lots of lay-ons round-by-round, including, to my amusement, Russian accent which I've always thought I do pretty well). We took a half-time break (which was a bit surprising since we haven't had one of those in a long time). After the break, we played Crazy - Mixed-up -Hyjinx (sp? - a head-to-head), Oscar Winning Song (which I mostly sat out of since I'd played everything else -- I say mostly, since I added some sounds from off stage and voice for the final song). The other team played a game whose name I never quite remember, it's something like "Catch Phrase" where a bunch of suggestions of advertising tags are obtained from the audience while a team member is out of the room and that person has to guess them. Our closing game was "Potpourri" a mix of 185, Celebrity To Do List, World's Worst, and Last Action Joke. In the end, to no surprise, we didn't win -- but, it wasn't a "real" competition anyway....
Well, it's 12:30 a.m. I'm burning discs of "Abandon Relationship" for the cast, writers, musical director and director as I watch Battlestar Galactica (best show on TV right now if you ask me). It's nice to have the video....I already miss the show!
G'night.
