After Winnipeg we went to Arton's in Calgary where we were very well taken care of by Marcella Bienvenue and Clive Robertson. We did a Religion Canada service there that involved shooting a gun at a gong and other miracles. For the radio show, Clive spent a long time trying to get a local AM station to announce that he'd lost a sheep to no avail because they wanted to know what kind of sheep he'd lost and he didn't know the different kinds of sheep. Also, for some technical reason we had to redo the Captian Bonnard and Captain Lafarge and Carolyne in Space section of the show. Now because there are always things coming up in live radio one never just relaxes into doing just what's being done at the time. You're constantly preparing for what's coming up - either by looking for the next script, or the schedule, or record, or sound effect, or if your reading then you're reading the line after the one your speaking to make sure you get the right intonation, etc. So the audience hadn't realized that the BL&C in Space section was extemporaneous and were a little surprised when the second take was a completely different story. |
