When it was announced yesterday that Kevin Smith would become the Minnesota Orchestra's new president and CEO, Minnesotans who hadn't been closely following Smith's career found their heads turning. Wait, that Kevin Smith? No, not the director of Clerks and Chasing Amy, the longtime leader of the Minnesota Opera.
I made a joke about the name via the @LocalCurrent Twitter account, and the Orchestra responded with a tongue-in-cheek tweet referencing a quote from Clerks. Given that a little confusion is inevitable, it's nice to know the Orchestra isn't averse to having some fun with it.
