Scene I

Let's see...I was at a baseball game, I think a minor league one,playing in an orchestra (go figure, it was a dream). I think we were playing Beethoven's 3rd. We're playing along, and I guess from where I'm playing I see a play developing: there's a hit into right field, and the guy at third decides to run home, the right fielder overthrows the catcher at the plate, but for some reason, the runner just turns around and starts running back to third inexplicably. I can remember thinking (can you actually have thoughts in your dreams? I guess so) I mean, this is highly irregular, and I know this even though I don't really like baseball all that much. Then I see there's a bunch of batboys and batgirls and the third base coach turning around and they all prostrate themselves on the grass. They're bowing in unison, on their knees as Muslims do to Allah, and, I suppose I'm on the dream dolly at this point, because I pan over to see who they're worshiping...and it's Lee Greenwood, country music singer! He's playing a live concert (I accidentally just typed "convert", hmm) at the same time and, I guess he's shaved his beard (didn't he used to have a beard?). Anyways, there's a problem with his amplifiers and as I dolly across I hear him ask if he can just play with the fiddle player.
