Seussical Is Off to a Running Start by Linda Liu Verbatim March 2011 Brownell-Talbot Vol. IV, Issue 2 Seussical is off to a running start By Linda Liu Have you ever wandered upon a talking speck yelling for help but realized that nobody else could hear any of the voices coming from it? Yeah, me neither… but one courageous, loyal elephant decided to pro- tect said speck from a world of dangers on a clover in Dr. Seuss’ magical world. This year’s musical, Seussical, features many of the world’s most- loved doctor’s stories intertwined in the story of Horton the elephant, Jojo the imaginative Who, the Cat in the Hat and other famous characters as they interact to help (or to hinder) his efforts to protect a tiny planet. Brownell-Talbot’s involvement in Dr. Seuss’ world all started the week we returned from winter break with auditions. This year’s musical requires a large cast, so it is a combined Upper School and Middle School production. So many nervous voices belted out to their favorite songs to earn a spot in the musical in front of several judges including Mrs. Amy Becker, the director, and Mr. J. R. Gould, the music director. Then came the waiting. And waiting. And more waiting as the judges deliberated to find the best combination for the cast. Callbacks were during 6A and after school and still the judges deliberated. News spread that the cast list would be posted on Becker’s website. Anxious singers refreshed the page every second hoping, nay, praying that the list would be posted, and they would get a spot they so wanted. Would I get the part I wanted? Would my friends be performing with me? Of course, I was not one of those people… okay, maybe I was. Three weeks before Seussical opens, the set comes together. Members of the theater Well finally, at 4:45 on Thursday, Jan. 14, the cast list was posted and the class, under the guidance of director Mrs. Amy Becker, work during class time and play will be staged in the BT theater on March 31 and April 1 at 7 p.m. after school to ready things for the musical. photo by Marjorie Waterman and April 2 at 1:30. Yakkin’Raiders start the year right By Tory Wilson Jerry Seinfeld put public speaking in a nutshell: “According to most studies, people’s number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you’re better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.” To many, speaking publically is an intangible, lurking idea that inspires fear, cold sweat, and incomprehensibility. Others, many at B-T included, thrive on the competition, challenge and potential to be heard. Of late, Yakking Raiders have been the forensic juggernaut of the district. This season – with a largely green team no less – remains far from disappointing. The Raiders have managed to defend an array of their tour- nament titles. Fremont High School’s ‘Tiger Tourney’ on Jan. 21saw the Raiders winning second in sweeps, for the second year in a row, a big win considering there were 40 schools attending, and many with large, Class-A teams. In fact, the Yakking Raiders lost only to Millard North, who eked out first place by 30 points. The Raiders beat both Lincoln Southeast and Raymond Central. The team departed from Fremont roaring, “RAIDERS, RAIDERS, RAIDERS!” for their success. On that note, the forensics squad continued to garner wins the fol- Chris Ames, junior, and Katie Gurtis, senior, practice their OID before competing at a dual meet.

    im Auftrag: medienAgentur Stefan Michel T 040-5149 1467 F 01805 - 060347 90476 [email protected] Rascal Flatts: Changed VÖ in Deutschland: 22.01.2013 Rascal Flatts ist längst in der Liga der amerikanischen Superstars angekommen und haben in ihrer zwölfjährigen Bandgeschichte unglaubliche Erfolge gefeiert. Ihre Alben und Singles erreichten fast ausnahmslos die ersten Plätze der amerikanischen Country-Charts. Bisher hat die Band mehr als 21 Mio. Alben, 25 Mio. digitale Downloads und 7 Mio. Konzerttickets verkauft und wurde mit etlichen Awards ausgezeichnet. U.a. erhielt sie von der Country Music Association sechs Jahre in Folge den CMA Award als „Vocal Group of the Year“ und wurde für die Single „Bless The Broken Road“ mit dem Grammy ausgezeichnet. Spätestens seit ihrer Gastrolle bei „CSI: Den Tätern auf der Spur“ (10. Staffel, Episode 14) sind die 3 Jungs aus Ohio auch in Deutschland ein Begriff. 2012 bekam die Band einen Stern auf dem Hollywood Walk of Fame. Auch in einer vielseitigen, erfolgreichen Karriere wie die der Band, gibt es Zeiten in denen es nicht schwer fällt, den Moment einzufangen. Manchmal reicht dafür sogar ein einziges Wort: Changed (auf Deutsch: verändert). „Wenn man bedenkt was wir in den letzten zwei Jahren durchgemacht haben, kann ich mir keinen besser passenden Album-Titel vorstellen“, so Bassist Jay DeMarcus. 2010 trennte sich die Band von ihrem langjährigen Management und wechselten zum Label Big Machine Records (das Label von u.a. Taylor Swift). Zum Glück haben sich die wichtigsten Merkmale der Band nicht verändert: Ihre steigenden Harmonien, die Fähigkeit Songs zu schreiben, die berühren, ihre tollen Performances.

  • Rascal Flatts Debut 'Back to Life,' Experiment with Singles-Only Business Model: Lyric Video Premiere
    (09.28.18) - https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/country/8477320/rascal-flatts-back- to-life-lyric-video Rascal Flatts Debut 'Back to Life,' Experiment With Singles-Only Business Model: Lyric Video Premiere For the members of Rascal Flatts, new single “Back to Life” doesn’t just contain a winning formula for a hit; the midtempo ballad is also a sweet testament to the women in their lives. Lead singer Gary LeVox says the Big Machine Records trio was initially drawn to the song -- written by Cary Barlowe, Niko Moon, Dan + Shay’s Shay Mooney and Fred Wilhelm -- because of a melody he calls “so infectious” that’s also reminiscent of some of the band’s previous hits. “We’ve had such great success with those 6/8 waltzes in the past,” he says, such as “Easy” and “Come Wake Me Up.” Additionally, “We thought that melody on the B section going into the chorus was so different, and we just really, really loved it and thought it would be a great song for the end of the summer.” The track went to country radio Friday (Sept. 28). Billboard premieres the lyric video below: The lyrics also resonated with LeVox and bandmates Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney, all happily married. With lines like “Taking my hand, pulling me up when I’m going under” and “I don’t want to think about where I would be without her,” LeVox says, “That’s how we look at our wives, as just being the anchors, and our moms. They’re the ones that keep us from going under half the time.” Adds DeMarcus, who produced the single along with his bandmates, “It’s a pretty empowering song for women to let them know how much power they really have when it comes to being a support system for their husbands, and how much life they can bring to us whenever we’re going through dark times.” After 10 albums, Rascal Flatts are trying out a new, singles-based business model, which means that while “Back to Life” is a brand-new song, it’s not necessarily the lead single from a forthcoming album.

    (9.29.18) https://lasvegasmagazine.com/entertainment/2017/sep/29/gary-levox-rascal-flatts-the- venetian/#/0 At the time of a mid-September interview, Gary LeVox’s week was one of support and remembrance. Two days before, the golden-voiced lead singer for Rascal Flatts answered calls at the Grand Ole Opry House during the Sept. 12 Hand in Hand Hurricane Harvey telethon. The next day, he attended a friends-and-family memorial for the late Troy Gentry, at the end of a week of mourning in Nashville for his longtime friend. Shortly after, he and bandmates Jay DeMarcus and Joe Don Rooney needed to pivot their attention to rehearsals for Rascal Flatts’ upcoming residency at The Venetian, Night to Shine. “It’s a really sad day here in Nashville,” says LeVox, who had just watched Vince Gill vow Nashville’s support to Gentry’s family during the public funeral, streamed live from the Grand Ole Opry on Sept. 14. “Troy and I were hunting buddies. I just saw him a couple of weeks ago at the Opry. We were sitting there talking about deer season getting ready to start. … We started at the same time Montgomery Gentry did. We were out there beating the streets up trying to get a song on the radio, all together. We were kind of the class of 2000-’01.” Looking back at those roots inspired the recording of Rascal Flatts’ 10th and latest album. Back to Us reached No. 2 on Billboard’s country album chart shortly after its May release, while lead single “Yours If You Want It” became the most played song on country radio in August.
