kdaddy Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) after semi finals I'm hitting the cool bar at my hotel (The Alexander) anyone or everyone is welcome to joing me! I'm down. Especially if you devise a cocktail called a Hoptini and instruct the bartender. Would also accept: Bloody George, Tom Hopkins, Garfield Iced Tea, Grasshopkins, Slow Comfortable Screw(ed Out of a Medal).

I spent a good amount of time at that bar last year and I saw a guy drink every drink on the menu. He was strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terri Schehr Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 We were fortunate enough to have Jeff write for our program for the past number of years. This is the first year he is not doing so... and it has nothing to do Hopkins. . Say a prayer for her. I do every day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
besson57 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Hopkins was going down and talking to those guys and fiddling with things - I really don't get how he is involved in that. Seems like the music caption guys would be perfectly capable of designing the overall sound field and balance.. Especially when you have guys like GIno & Colin leading the darn ensemble rehearsal - they are pretty "solid" to say the least lol I don't have an opinion on whether he should be that closely involved or not. I trust he's got an ear for this stuff. :) BUT... I was sitting in the first few rows at Annapolis, and he was visibly frustrated at the levels during different parts of the show. I wouldn't have noticed the trumpet mic level was off, except he was shaking his head and walked over to the sound guy and I heard him say "trumpet mic is too Loeb. Turn it up." I'm just wondering if that kind of frustration can influence scores, or highlight small issues that might have otherwise been overlooked.
