I doubt he has ever lost a minute of sleep over it....he's too tired from going to the bank for the past 30 years to make all those DEPOSITS$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$...

Calling All RENT Heads Feb 19
2008, 04:16:56 PM
I'm a head from way back in '97..seems (and I somewhat agree), that some of the posters are getting tired of us talking/speculating/crying/dreading on and on about the closing...I'm there...My question is, is there a blog where we (heads) can do this amongst ourselves....

A job well done Anthony. I saw you twice in 1997 and wanted to get back up there this past fall but the plans fell through....Thanks for all your work and thank you for being a driving force for the making of the movie....think I'll go watch it right now..

Why all the Matt bashing...It appears that he has been living his dream and making a living doing what he loves.....maybe you haven't been and don't...

Where is Anthony Rapp? Jan 17
2008, 10:30:22 AM
I just checked the RENT site and they show the original cast singing "Seasons Of Love", however they never show Anthony Rapp....check it out...kinda weird...

re: RENT: Your First Time Jan 16

My first time was on a Saturday night in February of '97..saw most of the original cast. I saw it again the next day (Sunday afternoon). Needless to say I was a Renthead from the beginning. I've seen it about once a year since...always moved, always inspired...I've made my living for the past 20 years as a songwriter, always seeking out music that moves me..RENT gets me every time...THANK YOU JONATHAN LARSON...

Wicked Question Jan 14
2008, 10:49:57 AM
Saw it at the Gershwin, Loved it...one question. At the beginning of the play Galinda is asked if she and Elphaba were friends and she says something like "Yeah I knew her in school but it depends on what you mean by friends." Later they sing "For Good", which is about the best love song/friendship song I've ever heard....just wondering if I missed something or was Galinda just saying what they wanted to hear after Elpahba's death at the beginning.

re: 'RENT' the movie..here we go again Dec 1

That was a good one..maybe I deserved it...I've made my living the past 25 years as a songwriter...sometimes I have to look for inspiration..Jonathan Larson's music inspires me. Maybe I should just listen to the original soundtrack. I have seen Rent on Broadway about once a year for the past ten years..I didn't know Jonathan, but I can't imagine any songwriter not being proud to see their work on the big screen.

"RENT" the movie..here we go again Dec 1
2007, 11:44:36 AM
O.K., so it wasn't the greatest musical movie ever made...let it go...I still find myself watching certain scenes just to get my RENT fix...It still gives me chills and makes me cry. The opening song, the life support meetings, Angels funeral...if those don't get you, you might want to check your pulse...

Anybody else getting a little concerned with the attendance numbers? Do you think it will still be playing 3 years from now?
