IN ATTEMPTING TO FURTHER LOCAL INTEREST IN THE ARTS, THE MEDINA ARTS COUNCIL IS PRESENTING A SUMMERTIME CONCERT ON THE SQUARE, WITH MUSICAL RENDITIONS BY THE MEDINA COUNTY CHAMBER ORCHESTRA, SPONSORED BY THE MEDINA COUNTY BAR & PICKPOCKET ASSN., AND CREATIVE PRODUCER AND DIRECTOR "ROSEY PALM"QUIST.
THE CONCERT ON THE SQUARE WILL PRESENT A SOMEWHAT RADICAL DEPARTURE FROM NORMALLY ACCEPTED CHAMBER MUSIC.
THE CONCERT WILL INCLUDE A MUSICAL INTERPRETATION OF GEORGE GERSHWIN'S RHAPSODY IN BLEW FEATURING A DUET BY "WEASELPECKER" COLLIER AND SHERIFF'S CRAPTAIN DAVID CENTNER PERFORMING ON NEARLY MATCHING SKIN FLUTES.
DRESS REHEARSAL WENT OFF WITHOUT A HITCH - ALMOST.
THE MEDINA COUNTY CHAMBER ORCHESTRA HELD A DRESS REHEARSAL AT THE CLOVERLEAF RECREATION CENTER, ATTENDED ONLY BY THE SELECT MEMBERSHIP OF THE ARTS COUNCIL.
AT THE APPROPRIATE MOMENT, "WEASELPECKER" COLLIER AND CENTNER (A PENCIL-PUSHING DESK JOCKEY FROM THE MEDINA COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE) TOOK CENTER STAGE, ATTIRED IN MATCHING OUTFITS.
THOSE IN ATTENDANCE REPORT THAT COLLIER AND CENTNER PERFORMED FLAWLESSLY ON THE SKIN FLUTE AS THEY PERFORMED GEORGE GERSHWIN'S RHAPSODY IN BLEW. THE MUSIC IS REPORTED TO HAVE TRILLED TO AN EXPLOSIVE CRESCENDO.
AT THE CONCLUSION OF THEIR DUET, COLLIER AND CENTNER WERE MET WITH SNICKERS AND CHORTLES OF MUFFLED LAUGHTER, APPARENTLY CAUSED BY THEIR MATCHING APPAREL.
IT TURNS OUT THAT COLLIER AND CENTNER WERE DRESSED ALIKE IN MATCHING SPANDEX BODY SUITS, HOT PINK IN COLOR!
WHAT DO YOU, THE READERS THINK, CAUSED THE SNAFU?
HERE'S THE SCOOP!
TURNS OUT THAT "WEASELPECKER" COLLIER SENT DONNA GARRITY, HIS "OFFICIAL" COURT REPORTER (WITH BENEFITS), ON A SHOPPING ERRAND WITH STRICT INSTRUCTIONS TO PURCHASE MATCHING SEERSUCKER SUITS AT COX'S, FOR HIM AND CENTNER TO BE WORN AT THE CONCERT PERFORMANCE.
THE ONLY PROBLEM CAME WHEN GARRITY, INSTEAD OF SHOPPING AT COX'S FOR SEERSUCKER SUITS, SHOPPED AT SEARS INSTEAD!
