As it turns out, the audition video for America’s Got Talent can now be 2 to 3 minutes instead of the previous 90 seconds. (I never did figure out how I was going to do the “minute and a half thing” without hacking my precious original to death!)  Once the song could be a little longer, it was a “piece of cake” to put an abbreviated version together.  So, the shoot was a week ago, and extremely fun.  Two days later we edited the visual, making decisions about which camera view to use where.  (I’ve never been a part of the edit before, and was surprised to find it quite amusing!)  Tomorrow we mix the audio.  (I’m kind of an old hand at adjusting  sound levels, but it’s always exciting to “frost the freshly baked cake”!)   Then, off my submission will go to A.G.T.  Shortly after, we’ll have it up on You Tube.  Go to “Cynthia Bythell Channel” and look for my song, The Wish Planet.  Hope you enjoy it….

    It’s almost time for a Mardi Gras Party in Fairfield. It’ll be loads of fun because I’ll be singing with The Magnolia Jazz Band again. Wish you could be invited, but as usual, it’s a private event. Maybe a public booking will pop up in February? Maybe it’ll show up for Valentines Day….I truly hope…

    I’m bringing all my experience and it’s wisdom (or not) to another year.  Like everyone else, my only limits are my own mistaken thoughts and beliefs.  They are just a product of involuntary exposure to society’s flawed suggestions, along with my knee-jerk reactions to life’s challenges.   Yes, I am innocent, and so are you. …
