There were two Compulsive Bowlers forums, the .com and the .org. The .org is no longer up but was up at least until mid 2012 according to the Internet Archive and the 2007 Adam/Anthony Reunion was discussed. Clicked around and some links opened but the majority didn't. Found one thread on the podcast with no replies and the link didn't open.
I've been going through the GeoCities archives for RENT stuff and cross referencing the dead links in the Internet Archive. So far no spreadshe

From the dates on the post notes, the RENT scene on tumblr is dead and has been for many years. It was brought back for a few moments with RENT Live but died again. I’m a huge tumblr nerd so I started there. The driving force behind tumblr’s theater scene seems to be Hamilton and newer shows.
LiveJournal, that’s a throwback!
Spreadsheet of every performer in every performance…my mind just exploded. Damn.
I’m mainly in music fandoms that have

FML. Well, can you please point me in the direction of urls— fan sites or message boards—that were active 2006-2008 so I can scour the Internet Archive for information, preferably ones that didn’t require a login? If not, any urls of awesome sites from over the years would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 
Looks like I’m contacting Playbill.

Wasn’t around for that one. http://musicals.net/forums/viewforum.php?f=68 Is inactive. I am amazed a fragment of the Tripod sites still exist, like these: http://atlantis2001.tripod.com/testrent.html http://members.tripod.com/Melissa_Umlor/rentindex.html You have to click around to find links that work.

Hi there! Two questions:
Does anyone know what happened to "Rent: The Podcast" that was talked about on Playbill and if there is still a way to hear it? It was on Apple Podcasts but no longer exists. I reached out to the people behind the "Everything Is Rent" podcast and they didn't know about it. I accessed the old RENT site via the Internet Archive and was able to find a bunch of interviews and video clips but the Podcast link no longer works.

Not sure if all this falls under the "no bootleg appeals" rule and I apologize if I'm breaking it.
Regardless, can someone please point me in the direction of active RENT forums/communities? All of the links I've been finding are either dead or inactive. Ever since the moment I heard Renée's voice in Hamilton on Disney+ my inner teenage RENThead was brought back to life like Mimi. A lot has changed on the internet since the late 2000's and I have a lot of lost time to make up for.
Thank you!
