The fiddle player's dad is sick, so he hasn't been here at all yet. I think he'll be in on Tuesday. The musical director (Danny) has been filling in for him. We had a meet and greet the other day, where Danny aked if anyone had a violin. Everyone laughed, then he said no seriously, does anybody have one? The other guy took his with him so they needed one. So Danny's been playing the part of Leon, which is pretty familar to him since he used to play that part about 10 years ago.
A couple days ago, The lead started to get sick. He was starting to lose his voice last night, so Danny sang for him, while still playing fiddle for the other guy, and the lead continued to play the guitar part. Today's reheasal added costumes, so it started off with Danny wearing the other guys' Leon costume, which happened to fit pretty well. After a bit of rehearsal, it was apparent that the lead's voice is pretty much gone, so they sent him to the doctor. Now, the musical director is standing in for him and playing the guitar, while nobody is playing the fiddle, so the steel guitar player is picking up the fiddle parts, on the steel guitar. How convoluted is that?
