sjb,

I thought the idea of combining three movies: "Blood Simple", "Blood Diamonds", and "Diamonds are Forever" : the politically serious to the slapstick action, and thinking of the combination as a musical was actually "funny". You are permitted to differ in this opinion, as many will.

And as you're so bloody skeptical that I some sort of pathetic, humourless wanker and not a serious composer of musicals like you and all the others here, that I haven't finished my outline and first draft of the main songs and play- the "book" I think you and Andrew Lloyd Webber call it- here is a preliminary list of the main songs I've planned:

"I left my Heart in Spades to Diamonds in my Club in San Francisco" (performed by Alvin and the Seven Cards)

" O What Joy doth fair red Plasma Spurn" adaptation of the John Dowland Lute Song, "The lowest Trees have tops" (performed By Ian Bostridge and Anthony Rooley)

"What up Doc? Hey ! Hap'n Blud?" (my Honqui Ice Tre*** house mix) ***Honqui Ice Tre is my rap name

"Sean O Sean O perfect Stuff, Seventy Three and still pulling the Fluff" (Performed by Neil Diamond)

"Diamonds are a War Lord's Best Friend" (performed by 32 CG Jayne Mansfield and Marilyn Monroes)

"On the Good Ship MURDER" (performed by The Five Heartbeats)

"You Ain't nothin' but a Forensic Snifferdog" (performed by Elvis Costello)

"DeBeers, DeBeers, DeBeers Have No Fears, Each One's a Sparkling Dead Child Tear's" (Performed by the Two Month's Wages Quartet)

If you want to read the draft of the play, you'll have to wait, my brutal taskmaster- it's only in it's second draft!

Funckin Hell and Shite on a Brick, you can't say a thing around here without being called a slackwankerposer and having to justify everything! -Plus, I don't know why I'm the only one that's required to show their draft outlines and song list so soon! sjb, weren't the rules that we have until next Thursday to begin rehearsals!

sjb, you're on my list now- you'll never have lunch in the theatre district of Reseda again!

Cheers,

Bambi B
