Whoa, haven't heard from him in years.

"* Deven May's last "for me" in Apology to A Cow -- BAT BOY " I concur.

That's terrible.

NOOOOOO!!!

Word.

Audra McDonald looks like the biggest tranny who ever tranny'd.

Raul's performance was strong, but you can drive a truck through his vibrato. That's one thing I've never liked about his voice.

Holliday. This is...kind of a bad question. Hudson, while incredible, did a great reading of Jennifer Holliday's original performance.

There are too many people talking about how RENT was flawed and all that. Can someone tell me why? Using filmic terms, if possible? I thought the movie was great. Honestly, I don't think it would've worked had it been sung most of the way through. That would've grated on peoples' nerves. You guys have to remember that most of us in this country have never seen a Broadway musical before in our lives and a lot of us have never seen a musical period. You have to toe the line.

What I find funny about that article is that they got Nikko to take her place. That must be that guy's place in life...to fill in for other people. Remember he did that Mario Vasquez on AI 4.

Thoughts? Comments? What is he up to now? There's a vid on YouTube of him performing "Gethsemane" that's...wow. Pretty moving.

The Wedding Singer. NY is about fun, Broadway is about fun. Don't try to make him think too much. He has the rest of his life for that.
