Random Dream #47b

I’m an idea generator. Always have been, always will be. Am I an executor of those dreams? Sometimes yes. Sometimes no. And most of the time, when I do get them done, it’s because they slip in sideways, without me even realizing. (For instance? I put “Sing with Polyphonic Spree” on my Mondo Beyondo list way back in 2007. Then in 2010 I found myself singing in a giant gospel choir. Not precisely the same, but close enough!)

I’ve been making Mondo Beyondo lists with Jen Lemen since 2007, and now you can make them with her too in a great Ecourse. (Warning: this course will shake up your life.) I haven’t made a Mondo  Beyond list this year…maybe we’ll do it for *8Things next week. But today ideas have been dowloading faster than I can blink. So I decided I should just start recording them on the blog. You know…to see if any of them sneak in sideways. Or to see if someone wants to play. Who knows, maybe one of them is your dream to0? Maybe you have the missing piece to make it happen.

My dad has this habit of calling any change in plan “Plan 47b.” I’m sure I’ve had a least 47a plans before this. So let’s start the number with 47b, shall we?

Plan 47b: Glee Geurillas

As you know I am equal parts in-love with the soundtrack from Glee and the NYC-based troop Improv Everywhere. I propose a Mash-Up! Glee songs + Improve Style spontaneous musicals!  The Glee Geurillas would take suprise concerts to public places. Imagine you are at the mall. One voice starts soloing the opening line from “Lean on Me”. Get to the chorus — 30 voices! Suddenly, the whole food court is singing along. Awesome!  It wouldn’t take much, a short rehersal, everyone with the same version of their songs on their MP3 players maybe.  If I ever get back to an English speaking nation I am SO DOING THIS! 

What’s your random dream for today? Do tell in the comments below, and thanks for being here.
