Posted - 12/15/2010 : 07:35:27 Meant to post some of these a while ago... anyway, here's a thread for any news articles and reviews concerning the Bluefigner opera.
Arguably Houston's hottest band right now, Roky Moon & BOLT announced a free show December 18 at Fitzgerald's to make up for the blown PA at last Saturday's CD release at tthe Mink. So far Indian Jewelry, Woozy Helmet, Leg Sweeper, Benjamin Wesley, Generation landslide, DJ Meshak and some of the musicians from Catastrophic Theatre's hit musical Bluefinger are also on the bill. Happy birthday to us.
That would be Bevin and Dan Dubrowski, who threw a tequila tasting and Mexican feast at their abode on Saturday night, entertaining a passel of friends with Blue Agave and Devin's home cooking. Guests were advised to dress like rocks stars for the evening that continued with a bus trip to Diverseworks for a production of Bluefinger, the new rock opera created by Catastrophic Theater.
After the rock opera, guests returned to the Dubrowski digs for more partying. In the way cool crowd were Kristen and Lee Nix,Ann and Matthew Wolfe,John and Becca Cason Thrash, Marley Lott, Kelly and Norman Bering, Patrick Breen and Anne Whitlock with Michael Skelly.
I did not get to visit with Chance Bednorz who plays the young Herman Brood in The Catastrophic Theatre's production of Bluefinger: The Fall and Rise of Herman Brood, but I did get to see him twice. The rocker/junkie/artist Brood's complex character leaves us curious about his childhood. Bednorz's short, but potent, scenes ground us in a life that had a beginning, which was indeed charged with wonder, astonishment and a restless imagination.
