Just a little note to say adios! As of Oct. 10, I will no longer be program director of the On Broadway channel at XM Satellite Radio. I've signed a three-year contract to be the host of the nightly syndicated "Taboo Talk" radio program, coming soon to a city near you. To keep things simple, I'll be re-adopting my old air name of Bill Matthews. Best of luck to one and all, and thanks to Rob for giving me the space for the column ... which I understand four of you have actually read.

What a crappy thing to say, Al Dente. A problem, perhaps, that you're not sharing with the rest of the class?

Everyone chill out! Sheesh!
Celebrity is as celebrity does. JG was a talented, tormented, flawed, REAL human being. Horrified by the tapes? Maybe. But I bet she'd be delighted to have such a talented songstress as Mary Birdsong portraying her.
Good God, with the legions of half-assed campy, scary, Judy Garland impersonators (with a chromosome that Judy NEVER had) plying their trade, let's be happy that she's being portrayed by a person -- a woman this time -- who loves and re

Thank you! I'm here all week. Tip the waitresses. Try the veal! And read my column, as it touches on this very subject.

Not fer nuthin', but I'm "set" to play the role of Max Bialystock. I keep showing up at the St. James, but they keep telling me to either buy a ticket or go home.

How many of the folks calling it "A Kiddie Show" actually saw it? And, by virtue of the same analysis, isn't "The Lion King" a kiddie show? Beauty and the Beast? It was a delightful, small show that the kids and grownups who were there the night I was LOVED! And it will do VERY well on tour.

And these are my final words on the subject -- save for the column I've just submitted.
It is NEVER wise for a performer to forget where he/she comes from. He/She may have to move back there someday.
And with that...

Yes, I do have a twin brother in "Wet Elbow, Wisconsin" or something like that. And on a side note to the lovely HKK, would you do me a favor and check to see that Eldon disconnected from the Internet after his last post? These AOL charges will BANKRUPT me!

Got word this morning that Sarah Brightman will be doing an interview on one of our channels in June. But her PR person tells me she will not do an interview on the Broadway channel. I will write more about this in next week's column. Stay tuned!
