Hey hey hey ev’rybody!

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

You may have noticed that I (Ren) have not been posting comics recently. That is for two reasons.
One: I spent the last week-or-so in California. (The next time I go I am *totally* arranging for a lesson with Patty.)
Two: Moy is going to take the summer to try to catch up to my 100-comic lead on her. This appeals to me because I get the summer off to work (my wonderful work-ation), and I will hopefully have lots of sparkling ideas come September! This is a Good Thing, guys. It means you will not have comics like this one going on.
Isn’t this lame? You wouldn’t want a summer full of comics like that. No.

I hope you approve. This is also a Good Thing because it means Moy will have uninterrupted time to tie up some of her previous storylines. And create new ones!
The Kitchener-Waterloo Symphony’s new season is up on their website, and I am pretty psyched for the Signature Series although odds are I will go to most of the concerts–I have to take advantage of my $50 season pass! (FIFTY DOLLARS for almost ALL the concerts. Dude. It’s insane. I love it. LOVE.)

Anyway. The next big and exciting thing on the agenda is the Alex Klein masterclass/fest/con deal! I am going to make Moy bring her camera and take many, many pictures of the goings on!
Hopefully I won’t screw up too badly when I play for him. And hey, maybe I won’t play on a super-sharp reed. Yes. Plan.

Ren out.

I got stuck in Newmarket for an extra day. I don’t have access to a scanner there, so now that I’m back in the loo, I’ll update in the morning.

Sorry for the delay! I promised 3 comics a week, and you’ll get them!

Two Weeks’ Notice

Monday, May 19th, 2008

Don’t worry, we’re not handing in our resignation. This is two weeks’ notice for Alex Klein’s Recital and Masterclass (a.k.a. Alex Kleinfest, a.k.a. Oboe Day)!

I hope you’re excited. I am! Also scared sockless, but that is beside the point.

In case you are still wondering about details, so am I. I haven’t been able to get in touch with Jim! Uh oh.
We can assume fairly safely, though, that the recital–which you should come to if you possibly can as Mr. Klein will be performing on *several* oboe-family-members–will start at 7 or 8 in the evening, in the Maureen Forrester Recital Hall.
I hope people can come!
Also, another link to the Facebook Event; there have been rides offered, if anyone needs one!

The good news in all of this is I went through all my reeds, yesterday, and disposed of several, and *discovered* a bunch that sound good! That *I* made! Yes, guys. Yes.
