What Tony Upset Are You Hoping For?

The Outsiders for Best Musical.


New Merrily Pro-Shot?

Don’t they usually film a couple of performances and take the best of each for the recording? Could be what accounts for the multiple dates.

Sweetie, no. You’re just sitting on here all night being snarky, following and commented on threads about a performer you don’t like and want to see fail. I believe that&rsqu

I’m sure he wouldn’t mind, but I don’t think he’s going for top-of-the-charts. If he was, he’d be putting out more commercial material. Deciding to come out with what is essentially a 60’s/70’s-style folk album is most likely not going to produce a #1 Billboard hit, and I think he knows that. (Personally, I think the album is lovely and includes some of his best work.) I think he’s happy making the kind of music that is meaningful to him.&n

I know this won’t appease the haters because… well… they’re haters. That’s what they do. But…

And we’re off! For someone who doesn’t appreciate his talent, you certainly spend a lot of time monitoring his ticket sales and posting in threads about him. Hmm…

TheatreFan4 said: "I'm very clearly laying out that his management is setting him up for failure with venues and ticket prices his audience can't fill/pay for and you're again lashing out at me being a Hater."

Why do you find the need to continuously ridicule and post negative comments about him and his management? Who hurt you?

I don’t understand where you were trying to go with your anti-semitism comment or calling a stranger in this chat a self hating Jew.. I really don’t. But that’s ok. Maybe I’m misreading.

You’re definitely misreading

I also hate JLO and it has nothing to do with the fact that she is Puerto Rican. You are perhaps the one with those hateful tendencies since you're the only one putting that out there. I am glad you're a long time theater fan and that you have met him and he has been nice to you. Why shouldn't he be? I

My apologies. It was a mistake to direct my comments at you, but other than that, I stand by everything I said.

BoringBoredBoard40 said: “my god will you SHUT UP"

Nope. Not a chance. I enjoy pissing off the haters and keeping this thread on top. When the haters shut up, I will too. What kind of theatre fan roots for a show or performer to flop? Something or someone not being your cup of tea is one thing, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but the amount of vitriol on this board, especially toward this man, is sickening and borders on sociopathic.

I’m the nasty one? Lol! Self-awareness definitely isn’t your strong suit. But you’re in really good company on this board.

I really don’t think that anyone who wants to be close enough to sit in the first row will care if they have to crane their neck a bit. I sat in the first row for Liza’s at The Palace and it was thrilling

Luscious said: "FYI… First row seats (not originally on sale) are now on sale for the not exorbitant price of$88 plus online fee. Btw, this isn’t called “papering”. It’s called providing ticketsfor his most ardent fans at a very reasonable price. Something most people here are always squeaking about other shows and artists not doing. But I guess if you’re Ben Platt, you’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t."
