Taking A Walk
He decided to take a good long walk to clear his head. He was having a major brain freeze. Because of the brain freeze he couldn't come up with any new. So he grabbed his jacket and scarf and headed to the subway station. He only had to wait a few minutes before the train in to Manhattan came. As he was sitting on the train he decided to head for Central Park. Years ago he use to live across from Central Park. He had moved to LA and then to Palm Springs. Palm Springs was OK but every summer there were wild fires to deal with. So he still kept the house there. But decided to get himself an apartment in Brooklyn. He bought himself a K2 bicycle for cycling into the city and around Brooklyn. Then he went totally crazy as his friend Marty said and he bought himself a four door 2013 red Land Rover Defender. Marty thought he was crazy driving it all the way cross country with two dogs. But he made it back to his old stomping grounds of Brooklyn New York in one piece. Adrienne still lived in Mill Valley. Marty and Enoch live in the LA area. While Bruce and Jack stayed in New York City. Brooklyn felt like home to him. So he was glad to be back in the city that never sleeps as Frank Sinatra sang in the song New York New York. Earlier in the day Adrienne sent him a texts message tell him to watch The Insider. Because pop singer B. A. Murphy was coming out. B.A. Murphy was a real winner. He wore very tacky clothes on stage. He pranced all over the stage like a peacock. Barry thought thank goodness I didn't get into show business. Or at least on stage end of show business. Barry sort of was in show business considering he was a songwriter. Barry had written scores for many Broadway musical and for a few motion pictures. In three months his motion picture Copacabana was going to have it's premier in New York City. Copacabana started as a musical in London's West End in 1995. Then it came to Pittsburgh's Benedum Center June 2000 where it did it's first regional. The second regional was in Los Angeles at the Ahmanson Theatre January 2001. Cameron Macintosh saw it when Copacabana came back to LA for a tour of major US cities. Cameron loved it so much when he saw it in LA. So much that he asked Barry, Bruce and Jack if he could turn it into a major motion picture musical. To which both Barry, Bruce and Jack were over the moon about.
