Comment: Subtle shifts in a number of categories. In Original Score, Encanto and Don't Look Up swap spots with Encanto gaining ground.  
In Original Song, Be Alive moves slightly ahead of Dos Oruguitas into the #2 spot.  
In Sound, No Time to Die has edged West Side Story to move to #2.  
And in a shuffling of the cards, Makeup/Hair is unclear after Coming 2 America picked up hardware last week from the Makeup and Hair Stylist Guild.  Tammy Faye and Coming 2 America are up and Cruella and Gucci are down.  Dune is still in front, but the race is tight.


FEST PASSES SELL OUT QUICKLY




Much hand-wringing on Tuesday morning as TFF fans landed on the TFF website as passes for SHOW #49 went on sale at 9:00 am Pacific.  Many folks, including your blogger friend here, ran into multiple 503 error messages and kind of freaked out a little bit.

I haven't seen anyone pin down how fast passes sold out but my sense of it was about 4-5 hours.

However, perseverance and preparation won the day and the Patterson's and MTFB have secured passes and lodging for Labor Day weekend in Telluride.

Thus the dance for 2022 can really begin.  Sometime in June I'll apply to regain my status as an accredited journalist for the fest.  I fully expect to be spurned again.  So, if any of you journos want to add me to your T-ride staff, I have my pass.  I have my lodging.  No cost to you!
