Jack Reed Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 (from Washington, DC) I think I can empathise with christine174: The MCB and TSFB forums felt quite cozy, and I could quickly check what was going on about my favorite companies. This is not a criticism, but just a thought in passing, because I have great respect for the intelligence (not to mention the industry) of the people who run BT. We're going to seee how it works, anyway, and that appeals to my pragmatism Link to comment
bart Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Jack, remember that we'll still have separate threads for news and for reviews of Miami City Ballet, Suzanne Farrell Ballet, and every company that someone wants to write (or learn) about. There's still a lot of opportunity for smaller gatherings of fans within the larger community. Link to comment
christine174 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I looked at the News and Reviews, per Bart's post, and I see it's a general news forum. Is there any place for fans of a specific company? I really do miss the ABT forum, which I used to check daily. Now whenever I come to the board I feel a bit homeless and aimless. (it was nice to get a friendly hello from Carbro, though -- I was wondering if you were still out there.) Link to comment

Mike Gunther Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Wow! Big changes... guess I'll be reading more often, just to keep up With the loss of individual co. forums, I wonder if the local/regional co's will get lost in the shuffle, or on the other hand they might get more attention. We shall see. One question is where to post general comments about a specific co. - "I like co. X because Y but wish they would do Z..." that kind of thing doesn't quite seem to fit Heads Up or Recent Perf's either. Any thoughts? Link to comment
carbro Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Aesthetic issues? Ballets and Choreographers? Everything Else Ballet? I think any of these would be fine, depending on the emphasis of your post. It's a less structured board now, and if a post is in a conspicuously inappropriate forum, it can always be moved.
