Outstanding!

The gay rights movement should make this their anthem, and I'd probably tear up every time I heard it.

That was superb.

But what can you do, Mormolyke, with the statements from Tony Hayward?

I'm betting you can do something really good.

Goddamn.

Loved it.

Well done, sir.

It's ma'am, I think.

She's got the goods.

Wow, cheers everyone!

This is just as fantastic as the Ashcroft work, Mormolyke. Do you know if Mr. Spooner has seen this?


Mormolyke - 2010-06-06

Heh, Gonzales, not Ashcroft. I tried to get permission to arrange an Ashcroft work, but we had "artistic differences."

A friend of mine up in Maine was going to try to contact him this weekend - no news yet. This all happened awfully quickly. I didn't want to contact Mr. Spooner while I was composing it because I didn't know if or when it would be performed. Suddenly it won this competition and had its premiere only a few weeks after I finished it. Now I'm waiting for the good recording on CD to be issued, so I can mail it to him with some kind of thank-you gift, yet to be determined.

Gonzalez, of course. The one that I didn't get into a shouting match with. I always mix them up.

Compliment stands.

You continue to amaze me. Thank you for this.
