So apparently, the three houses album is going to have 23 tracks, and according to wikipedia each house has 7 tracks each. That makes 21 tracks plus the coda, leaving us one track short soooo...
bonus track?
the devil works hard, but the Dave Malloy fandom works harder:
Okay I was not expecting this.
A surprise, to be sure.
But a welcome one.
Hopefully this sets a precedent for other developers to get a much-needed second chance!
This is really good, just adding a few notes:
The chord at the end of ābrain broke tooā is C#min7
āIāve been driftingā should be F#7
chord at the end of āsometimes I feel like this is not my lifeā is B+
Start of āA phantom pantomimeā is B7
āAnd I donāt know how to get backā is C#halfdim7/G then F#7 (then back to B)
āI never recovered from the crashā is F#7 all the way through
Second verse āSome daysā first two lines is C#m/G# and G#7 (or Ab7)
End of āMy memories mock me in the darknessā is Eb
āI canāt tell whatās real or not anymoreā is G#m, B/F#, E (one measure), E min
Last line starting from ābehindā is G#m, B/F#, E, C#halfdim7 Hope this helps!

How could I leave so much of me behind?
THREE HOUSES CAST ALBUM CONFIRMED!!!
š š š
Right? I was so sad when I saw it the second time and realized it was cut. Also, Scott Stanglandās character pretty much only gets dialogue lines in the third house because of this, which sucks because heās pretty much the central character linking all three houses.
I saw three houses by Dave Malloy twice, once on the 5th and last night, and they cut some stuff: (spoilers)
The wolf interlude between second house and third house is gone
some dialogue lines from the third house are gone
The āwhat big eyes you haveā part of the grandparents song at the end was cut from the song

three houses three houses three houses aaaaaaa
saw three houses this weekend and dave really got me with the
"My heart broke
And then the world broke
And then my brain broke too"
anyway if you can get to the city go see three houses to commiserate on your pandemic coping habits
aight, aside from the fact that 3 houses by Dave Malloy is now gonna Haunt My Waking Thoughts For The Week...
nah, that's it. The only pandemic play I can get behind. Proper amount of drunken revelry, fantastic amount of fairytale allegory, Yes She Does Smoke Weed, vindictive dragon spirits and knockoff tom nooks, cairns of amazon boxes, The Ending, The Set, The Parallels...
and the wolf. Gods help me, but I wanna kiss the wolf on his broken-toothed maw. dance with him. ask him for a metal straw. I'd be a furry for that wolf in his stupid knit sweater.
(And then, the harmonieeeeees my love, they're so perfect and ugly and pretty and the genre shifts and and and)

Reacting to the new Three Houses photos!
My Three Houses brainrot is setting in and I have to keep myself from going insane and/or spoiling myself before I see it. So lets go through the new photos released by Playbill yesterday (May 3rd)! My predictions below, but I don't know any more than you do so there won't be any spoilers!
Right off the bat. The set? STUNNING. Giving Octet/Comet/Ghost Quartet if it had a proper set. The concept of the show is an open mic night so the bar setting is a given, I love the little tables with menus, makes it very Great Comet. I love how many of Dave's shows are set in a specific place that the performance factors into. You are at an academic lecture, a jazz club, a church basement. Wonderful job by dots.
Love that the Grandmother and Grandfather double as the bartenders/waiters here. A note about the cigarette from the playbill, these are herbal cigarettes that are actually smoked for real, they just don't have any effect. Just a fun fact for realism.
ONSTAGE BAND lets gooooooo. You can see the other two characters sitting at the two little tables downstage.
No thoughts. Pretty :)
DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON DRAGON
I'm SO curious why he's here. I had assumed, naturally, that the puppet in this case would be the Wolf. But no, there's a dragon here??? My prediction is that this is either connected to the video game references in the show (we'll come to that), it's a puppet a character made, or it's some hallucination/dream sequence.
Dragon is sitting at the bar??? He's havin a drink??? Oh my god???
Band onstage!!!
You can see how close the audience is in this one!!!
More that are close-ups. My only note here is that the background behind the bar is different! So I assume it changes between characters.
HERE WE ARE. THE SIMS PLUMBOBS. THATS SO SILLY. I'm also really curious about the way Dave would use the context of the Sims in this show. Like I'm predicting it's going to be more than "people playing video games stuck at home" but will also have some comment about socialization and human connection. Since Mia Pak doesn't have one here, I feel like we're likely to see an Octet style form where during each person's individual story, the others act as a side characters.
Oh my gooood he is so unhinged and silly. What is he up to. The intense glare. The plumbob again. My prediction is that he will sort of hang around and antagonize from within each person's story, taking on different roles and acting as an omnipotent force.
ALSO. ELECTRIC GUITAR. Giving Beowulf but also The DJ. I guess that's what I'm leaning towards with his style of antagonism, he's just there to poke fun at them and be mean and have fun. I love him, he looks like he's having so much fun.
I love the boxes but it's also really surreal, because I JUST did a show in October that was also about quarantine and featured tons of cardboard boxes. Seriously. The playwright had decided to clean up the house during quarantine, and put things into boxes to keep them organized. But he fell into depression and for months just lived out of the cardboard boxes he didn't have the energy to unpack. This show was about a depressed woman who couldn't sleep, and was haunted by a Pierrot clown and a puppet. Anyway. I'm getting similar vibes here.
Those are all my thoughts on the photos! But I have a couple more from the updates to the program, which you can access here.
The characters have new names added to them! It's now Susan/Shelob, Sadie/Pookie, and Beckett/Zippy. I wonder what these are about, if they're just other characters they play within the stories. My prediction is though that they're either online names or related to the Sims bit mentioned earlier.
According to the program, there are only THREE musical numbers. Not acts, "musical numbers" that's the exact wording.
First House: Susan
Second House: Sadie
Third House: Beckett
Coda
Dave Dave Dave. Maybe this is a previews thing, and the different names just haven't been solidified? Either way, I support doing whatever he wants from a show standpoint but I'm curious how it would translate to an album. Of course, that's a problem for another day!
Woof. Long one. Thank you for sticking with me here and stay tuned because I am going to be sharing a LOT more about this show as it develops!
