Sometimes having worked in a music store for five years comes in handy as a librarian.

Patron: I'm looking for a CD for my son. It's from a Broadway play.
Me: Do you know the name of the play?
Patron: No, but I remember it has something to do with the Bible or religion.
Me: Is it The Book of Mormon?
Patron: No, it's not that.
Me: Maybe it's Godspell? Or Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat?
Patron: No. I think it might just be called Genesis.
Me: Wait, wait, wait are you sure it's a play? It might be The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway by the band Genesis —
Patron: THAT"S IT!
