Malaysia Recital Preparations

I have 6 more days before I leave for Malaysia. I have all the gifts and stuff for people packed and ready. Now I have to get my junk together. I have not really done recitals in Malaysia before and I dunno where to start with my packing. I'm not a procrastinator when it comes to that but this year I can't start.

Last I heard the production company was going to dress us, do the makeup and hair and such. Hmmm.. so long as they do not dye my hair, not permanent anyway... :) and I choose my own shoes! I know that a professional film crew will be there at the recital in KL. I can't decide on which formals to bring home. Well, I'm thankful I have plenty to choose from.

Can't decide whether to take original copies of my music home or not. Dunno how I'm going to carry all that plus my laptop for carry on baggage. I would not send them to cargo in case they get lost. I also really want to drag my orthopedic seat cushion back with me.

As far as Malaysia goes, the CDs are in production and the first run is 5000 copies. They are selling for RM 50 each and concert tickets are $50 each too. We are prepared to autograph CDs after each concert, and I have a stack of business cards. I am not sure what piano I'll be playing on in Kuala Lumpur, but I'll have to deal with a Petrof for Ipoh and Teluk Intan. Don't remember that piano very well. My piano tuner back home will take care of the piano and my brother is handling the logistics of the moving.

Will have to continue my thoughts in another blog. It's late and I should not be blogging when I'm in the nice practice room at UA. :) Goodnight T-town!
