Michael Porter rolled into town last night from Boise, ready to conduct Cosi Fan Tutti for ALO. DJ and I took him to Charlotte Street for dinner, the downtown being so packed it was unparkable. Great to have him back home. We took up our old ways in half an hour. He was put up in one of those gorgeous condos which used to be the Altamont parking lot, where there are appliances I never heard of. Great to chew a corner of ALO gossip again. Michael presents Boise as a sort of pre-adolescent Asheville.
