"Idol" was just last year, wasn't it? And I thought it played like, one non-preview show before it closed, but I wasn't really following it. Go figure.
"Your lyrics lack subtlety! You can't just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!"
Idol the musical played at the 45th Street theatre from June to July 2007. It had an original preview cast from Syracuse, New York for the month of July. That cast had a part in creating the show and the characters were written for them. The run was extended after previews began in New York with a New York cast, the show was semi-re-written, but due to less than stellar reviews, closed after opening night.
And yes, Clay saw the show before it closed with the Original cast.
MassiveMeGo: But he is perfect. There is no other Clay.
Kerchak My worst fear I hold it now I always knew that this would happen Though he’s a singer it’s in his blood And he will go So now it’s clear what I must do I know too well what he’ll become For as long as I draw breath I’ll remember
Kala Where’s Clay? Where is he?
Kerchak No turning back What’s done is done I have seen what they can do He can’t be attacked by you, by me It’s too late
Kala No, I won’t let you do this How can you think
Kerchak No more fighting I’ll be obeyed I’ll stand my ground Don’t dare defy me I know your kind I know the truth I will protect him No other Clay Open your eyes It’s there to see No other Clay He’s not one of you And never will be
Kala Just listen to me
Kerchak No more to say He is what he is And that won’t change There’s no other Clay I am leaving him here And here he’ll stay
Kala He’s just a singer
Kerchak He was up on the stage Making a scene And in time it is us He will entertain
Kala No
Kerchak Nothing and no one Will stop him becoming What he is And was by blood
No other Clay He won't come between me And those I loved Believe me when I say With my body and soul This I vow
Kala But I hate him!
Kerchak No, no other Clay In spite of your pain It will be done No matter what you say He never was or could be There is no other Clay I won’t let him near The rest of Broadway again
Kala I understand
Kerchak Where are you going?
Kala To PMs We'll bash him away from his fans
Kerchak For how long?
Kala For as long as he's on Broadway
Kerchak You can’t I won’t be able to attack you Kala don’t do this Please
Kala Kerchak I'm his hater!
Kerchak No other Clay I should have done this before Long ago And from today Though they'll think of me cruel They won’t know There was no other Clay.
Apologies to Tim Rice and Phil Collins

Wanting life but never

This could be a kind of gay CAROLINE OR CHANGE. What could be the closet-case equivalent of "Lot's Wife"?? The imagination reels...
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

First of all, the show was about AI and not about Clay. buy a clue. Then again, it's seems to be a sport on this message board to start yet another Clay Aiken thread so all the loser wannabies flock into the thread to tear him down to feed their own egos. So go ahead and have your jollies. While Clay Aiken is starring on Broadway, getting decent reviews and getting ready to release a new cd, where are all of you?
We KNOW what the show is about and it has NOTHING to do with your pet, Clay.
And much like Mr. Akien, this show has no place in a legitimate theratre. It should be staged in a coffee house.
It bombed here in LA.
Back to the beach...
