killing darlings

We have now spent two days trying to make 18 songs fit into 70 minutes. It doesn´t work. We came down to 12 songs but now we can´t agree on the right order... I don´t want to feel like making compromises but of course that´s what we have to do. It isn´t possible to be totally democratic about the amount of solos. Someone will be doing less. It´s time to kill darlings.
And then we have the issue of changing clothes during the show, with no break in the show - how, where, when will we change? And me and Anna getting in and out in our clothes in 1 minute and a half...riiight. And let me tell you, our stylist makes no compromises. No Velcro will be used in this group. Ever.
We haven´t been singing a single note this week nor have we had any champagne. And the political situation in this country is a mess. Rough week. And it´s only Tuesday.


Soundcheck. Trying not to exhaust ourselves too much.
