Hi! I'm Cinco Paul, new here, and these are some of the things I've written. If you have any questions about them, fire away and I'll try my best to answer.
Church on a Saturday night. I am a believer!
Ending the first episode of Mr. Scorsese with the introduction of De Niro: nothing has ever made me want to watch the 2nd episode of something more.
Schmigadoon! fans, you should definitely watch the latest episode of ELSBETH. It's a very fun MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG tribute written by Schmigadoon's own @jontolins.bsky.social!
An Apple by any other name still has Schmigadoon!
Apple TV+ has rebranded to Apple TV

It's their 'vibrant new identity'
I have to confess that KISS OF THE SPIDER-WOMAN is not one of my favorite musicals, but I REALLY enjoyed the movie. There hasn't been a bad film adaptation of a Kander & Ebb musical, to my knowledge. Which is something of a miracle.
Wait, isn't it, "But if this ever-changing world in which we're livin' makes you give in and cry"?
The Lowdown keeps getting better. This latest episode my favorite so far. Dripping Coen Bros. Check it out if that's your thing!
Wrote a new song for Schmigadoon! on Broadway, a female duet. Had the two actors (can’t say who just yet) sing it for me the other day and they KILLED IT. So excited for you to hear it!
@chrissteller.bsky.social introduced them to me way back in '83, then I introduced them to Rob. Musical proselytizing at work!
It's theoretically possible I would have fallen in love with The Replacements even if this all-time banger were not the first thing I heard by them, but who's to say? The chorus is catchy, but it's Bob Stinson's imposing lead guitar that provides the tune's real hook. #dailysong youtu.be/Ln3iKL6wF-M

Thank you, Kelly!! ❤️
Okay, New York Times, but what else do you call this??
Ha! I thought you were saying that your top 5 fictional characters ever were all from Peanuts! Which, if so, totally cool. But also this is a great list.
Charlie, Lucy, Snoopy, Linus and...Sally? Schroeder? Peppermint Patty (I think she'd be mine)? Who's your fifth??

Run, do not walk, to get your tickets for this show. The series was awesome and totally deserves a third season, but in the meantime, make your way to Broadway to see this love letter to golden age musicals. I promise you won't regret it! Best thing KenCen did!

BUCKINGHAM NICKS is finally available again (luckily I've had it on vinyl all these years)! Please give a listen to my favorite track, "Crystal," which is imho far superior to the later Fleetwood Mac version.
