Here’s a question in regards to “Ya got trouble” from Meredith Wilson’s the music man. Now I have never seen the musical, but I do get the overall impression of what the story is about. So I must ask, in the song “Ya got trouble.” Is it possible that to some extent Harold really does believe all the nonsense he’s spewing?

To the tune of Seventy-Six Trombones: Perfectly coifed haircuts met the screaming girls...

I'm not sure how the boy band grift works exactly, but I'm sure Harold Hill can figure it out.

[Image Description: Digital artwork of Harold Hill from The Music Man and a group of four boys transforming into a boy band. The line of boys fades from sepia-toned on the left to full color on the right. The left-most boy is freckled and wearing old-fashioned suspenders, running a comb through messy hair. Next to him is a boy with tousled hair and glasses, suspenders hanging loose. Next is a blonde boy with his hair parted to the side blowing a kiss towards the viewer. Lastly is a boy in a white suit with parted bangs, accepting a microphone from Harold Hill. In the foreground are the pink-colored figures of some girls in old-fashioned hairstyles watching excitedly. /end ID]

I regret to inform you that "Harold assists Marcellus with a horse birth" has been indefinitely put on hold in order to actually get a chapter out instead of working on things that come at least ten chapters later
