We were a part of a performance night at the lovely home of Drew and Lauren. We were stationed in the bathroom- Juliana in the tub and Jeanine in the toilet. Fitting? Yes. We worked through and over the hot lez flower duet from Lakme, completely submerged. The snorkelabra combined our two voices via tubing and pushed it out the bell/speaker that you can see part of in the top image. It was yet another completely surreal experience that seemed to be one of those spesh mixes of humor and some beautiful audio convergences. We'll get up a youtube wideo real soon. Hopefully.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RqkgkMABcBI/AAAAAAAAAEY/-0SOeWDp9BA/s1600-h/IMGP2428.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RqkgkMABcBI/AAAAAAAAAEY/-0SOeWDp9BA/s400/IMGP2428.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5091636659787755538" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/Rqkh0cABcDI/AAAAAAAAAEo/KC_D51ZHfBQ/s1600-h/IMGP2430.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/Rqkh0cABcDI/AAAAAAAAAEo/KC_D51ZHfBQ/s400/IMGP2430.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5091638038472257586" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/Rqkg9sABcCI/AAAAAAAAAEg/tHy75L_ucPE/s1600-h/IMGP2427.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/Rqkg9sABcCI/AAAAAAAAAEg/tHy75L_ucPE/s400/IMGP2427.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5091637097874419746" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1451077551219973560-5429899694941425860?l=underwateropera.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Gaylord Rehabilitation Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04794178352060723211noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451077551219973560.post-48042526548074070542007-07-26T14:43:00.000-07:002007-07-26T15:07:32.867-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RqkZJ8ABb9I/AAAAAAAAAD4/acGqap-t0kY/s1600-h/gdjw-snorkelabra.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RqkZJ8ABb9I/AAAAAAAAAD4/acGqap-t0kY/s400/gdjw-snorkelabra.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5091628512234794962" border="0" /></a><br />We had a get-together with some nice gays in Palm Springs. We were hosted by the fantastic duo of Ron and Susan in the most dreamy round pool. People may have thought they were going to a normal pool-cocktail party, but alas, no. They were asked to P-A-R-T-I-C-I-P-A-T-E. And they did. We got everyone making tones that combine into a whole via teacherlady Juliana's training in this realm. Then we went underwater. And listened. At some point the snorkelabra, a quickly assembled speaker-type device for breathing and conducting sound was introduced for a solo. It was completely surreal and we learned a whole lot more <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RqkaesABb_I/AAAAAAAAAEI/1WtEatEwtHY/s1600-h/IMGP2411.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RqkaesABb_I/AAAAAAAAAEI/1WtEatEwtHY/s400/IMGP2411.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5091629968228708338" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/Rqka8cABcAI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/iPp01WY_t1Y/s1600-h/IMGP2418.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/Rqka8cABcAI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/iPp01WY_t1Y/s400/IMGP2418.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5091630479329816578" border="0" /></a>about the parameters of trying to sing underwater...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1451077551219973560-4804252654807407054?l=underwateropera.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Gaylord Rehabilitation Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04794178352060723211noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1451077551219973560.post-76427277632957449102007-06-30T10:31:00.000-07:002007-06-30T14:48:12.642-07:00<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RobKZuqOq9I/AAAAAAAAABY/RLloTY6u2v0/s1600-h/009_17A.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RobKZuqOq9I/AAAAAAAAABY/RLloTY6u2v0/s400/009_17A.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5081971772904877010" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RobOmuqOrFI/AAAAAAAAACY/94jqLoncUvg/s1600-h/005_21A.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_-9cXfRNA37E/RobOmuqOrFI/AAAAAAAAACY/94jqLoncUvg/s400/005_21A.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5081976394289687634" border="0" /></a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;font-family:trebuchet ms;" ><span style="font-size:180%;">Your bathroom = La Scala + Jacques Cousteau </span><br />How do you host one of the first underwater operas in your Los Angeles home?
