And now he's trying to see if he can succeed on the road without a robe and sandals.

On the Road
Some East Coast dates in October and November. You'll also be able to catch him in Quentin Tarantino's new film Django Unchained, in theaters this December.

Take this robe away from me! For I don't want to be typecasted
^ He already tried to avoid typecasting with Rasputin. Pity it was a JCS retread pile of crap that tried to cast Rasputin as some kind of mystic healer. Now he's just attempting a solo run before there's no Neeley left to try.

OMG he is going to be in Django Unchained?!
ETA: Just read the thing on his site about it. Love it. I already was excited for that movie, now just more so...can't wait to see how Tarantino uses him.

^ Fair warning, it's probably not going to be much of a role. Neeley's not even listed on IMDb for it yet. However, I do know his part in the movie involved location shooting in New Orleans.
After seeing him completely RUIN the last national tour of Jesus Christ Superstar, I have NO desire to see him onstage again. He was truly awful in every way possible. The WORST performance I have seen by an actor in my life. Words can't even describe how terrible I thought he was.

g.d.e.l.g.i. - oh, yeah, I know it won't be a big role, it will just be a cameo. Like Mike Myers in Inglourious Basterds.
