Maybe they meant "Batten Rouge" :-)

Subject: [Finale] homophones (was changing clefs)

it really reeks havoc with the score spacing.


Since I know from your recent posts that you are the kind of guy who
hates to use the wrong homophone, I'm sure you won't take it badly when
I point out that you probably meant to say "wreaks."

Other substitutions I see all the time are "affect" and "effect", as in
"he effected a change that affected everyone,"  and "wet" for "whet",
as in "we can whet our appetites with a bite of cheese, and then we can
wet our fingers in the fingerbowls."

This subject makes me very unpopular at dinner parties. 8-(
