I always liked the hook and knew one day it would end up in one of my music theatre works. It was actually on one of my first collections of copyrights. I was travelling a lot at the time and when I was home I was writing a lot too. I had a Tascam 8 track casstte recorder that integrated to my MIDI instruments. I was producing about 4, 6, 8 songs every 6 months or so at the time</ p>

It's magical how songs can fit well in shows many years later and this song was perfect for the closing song in BANNED; after all, the music ensemble just learns that the ban on their festival show has been lifted through a chance relationship they built at a group therapy session. There's been a convergence with <a href="https://www.WYSIWYG.show"><b>WYSIWYG</b></a>, <a href="https://www.BANNED.show"><b>BANNED</b></a> and <b><i>When it Rains it Pours</i></b>. It's such a well rounded music theatre show now. More to come!Administrationhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15660413534477334287noreply@blogger.comDenver, CO, USA39.7392358 -104.99025111.429001963821158 -140.146501 68.049469636178856 -69.834001tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255099495884719839.post-54244146352098841812022-08-03T16:26:00.003-06:002022-10-19T22:40:18.093-06:00Logo for "When it rains it pours"<p>Here's one of the early logo concepts we came up with for the show. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiro4p-rtXnO6hY9ECX3-cT7dpwUcIkP5W-Z_jgclNjSUIedyhWeRbfp5JGCHUCcvz8jNqT_tIJrLNQBVDC4cjPRFAR_8NwePb6dcP9uqUurWEXUQsY7z3lkhAhuE56aNN6dU29DJjUGe7R9UnZUOaL21JCqIgQKG9Eg3jcVy4YYeYPh6IZo6SBWVNoEw/s1821/WIRIP.show.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Logo for the Musical "When It Rains It Pours"" border="0"src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiro4p-rtXnO6hY9ECX3-cT7dpwUcIkP5W-Z_jgclNjSUIedyhWeRbfp5JGCHUCcvz8jNqT_tIJrLNQBVDC4cjPRFAR_8NwePb6dcP9uqUurWEXUQsY7z3lkhAhuE56aNN6dU29DJjUGe7R9UnZUOaL21JCqIgQKG9Eg3jcVy4YYeYPh6IZo6SBWVNoEw/w640-h318/WIRIP.show.png" title="Logo for the Musical "When It Rains It Pours"" width="512" /></a></div><br /> <p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comDenver, CO, USA39.7392358 -104.99025111.429001963821158 -140.146501 68.049469636178856 -69.834001
