Libretto

Here is the Libretto to my rock opera THE FRONT DESK:

Once upon a time, there was a hotel. And at that hotel, there was a front desk. Everything seemed to take place in and around the front desk. It's where the agents looked over the activities of the day. Managers hung around to see how things were running. Owners would stop by to find out how the place was running. Housekeepers walked by the front desk in order to punch in the time clock to start their workday. And guests would check at the front desk and stop by for general information. Companies, owners, managers, entry level employees and guests will come and go. Yet the front desk will remain right where it is. The one constant in an ever changing industry.

Setlist Changes

I made song changes to my rock opera THE FRONT DESK. There will not be a song called BUCKET CHECK PART TWO. Instead, the song BUCKET CHECK will appear only once. Also, I added a new song called ROOM SERVICE to the rock opera.

The Second Shift

Here are the 8 songs to middle section of my rock opera THE FRONT DESK:

  3:00 PM - Bucket Check Part One
  4:00 PM - Hotel Owners
  5:00 PM - Reservations
  6:00 PM - Celebrity Guests
  7:00 PM - Walk Ins
  8:00 PM - Jacuzzi Suite
  9:00 PM - All Quite On The Front Desk Front
10:00 PM - Wake Up Call

Things might change here too. There might not be a BUCKET CHECK PART TWO and I could possibly move CELEBRITY GUESTS to the 11:00 PM Third Shift Section. I could also add an Overture/Underture instrumental to rock opera. I'll keep you posted.

My Boston Girl

Here are the lyrics to my new song:

MY BOSTON GIRL

I love my Boston Girl
She is the greatest in the world.

Let's take a trip to Portland, Maine
I'm hot as a lobster under the sun
The Red Sox are playing in a baseball game
I never knew that getting lost could be so fun.

I love my Boston Girl
She is the greatest in the world.

My Boston Girl
The greatest in the world.
