Sorry I missed it. Hectic day, Music Man closed, then had an 8PM performance of Edgar at Carnegie Hall, which was supposed to end at 9:30, but we got so many encores we didn't finish until 10:30, and I forewent the trip to Brooklyn.

So, any review? I see the Mayhem have posted their new inmate manifest. Any word on the latest royalty, livery, and crew?
