HI. My name's NYBWYNY, and I'm a WICKED-HOLIC. BUT...

Posted: 8/30/04 at 2:06pm

I equally love:
POTO
Les Miz
J & H
Avenue Q
Miss Saigon
Fiddler
Music Man
CATS
Lion King
PLUS A WHOOOOOOOOOLE LOT MORE. My point?
Yes, I love WICKED. It's "my show" FOR NOW. I know it's not the best thing to ever shadow a Broadway stage. I understand there may be so-called "flaws." But I don't live in NY and can't see a show every week, like some. So, to me, WICKED will be my fav for a while, until I can get back to NY and see the next great one. I look forward to that. But until then, WICKED DOES ROCK!!

WICKED FANS UNITE!!!!!

and please, to those who disagree, that's fine. But please stop making me, and others, feel like a Republican in NY!
We are all here for one purpose. We love Broadway.

It's sad when it has really has to come down to Wicked fans defending themselves. It really shouldn't be that big of an issue if someone posts about Wicked or not. But of course this board doesn't work like that.

why does the title of this thread sound like a 12-step program?

Yes, but Republicans in New York rock.

Well, I do, anyway.

who hasn't made you feel welcome?

Yeah, I'm confused as to why it got moved to the OT board.

The "12 step" comment made me laugh, and yes, I titled it similar to another program!

Geez, must I explain everything?
"Who has made you feel not welcome?"

First, I was just teasing a bit, but how about the 100,00+ protesters? The didn't exactly roll out the welcome wagon.

Who needs a welcome wagon when you know that you rock?

I think we had a welcome wagon, but Namo burned it.

I agree. I'm just saying that some people on these boards make WICKED fans feel unwelcome, MUCH like the protesters did with the RNC. Just a joke and a play on words.

i don't think you can compare the two... one is trivial compared to the other, and there is a lot more hanging in the balance where the convention is concerned than whether or not there is going to be a blooper during friday night's performance at the Gershwin...

Wicked fans are made to feel unwelcome here because there are SO many of them and the board becomes cluttered with Wicked threads, most of them inane, a large percentage of them duplicated. These threads are of course not started by every Wicked fan who posts on here, but a select few. However, the result has caused all lovers of Wicked to be tarred with the same brush and anyone who joins and then immediately starts a Wicked thread is not made to feel welcome.

Nothing precious, plain to see, don't make a fuss over me. Not loud, not soft, but somewhere inbetween. Say sorry, just let it be the word you mean.

Oh, Joey, for the love of..........

IT WAS A JOKE!! Good God, I'm not equationg the RNC with WICKED fans. As I said, it was just a play on words, simply meaning that sometimes, if you are a WICKED fan, others make you feel unwelcome. That's all.

"WICKED FANS UNITE!!!!!and please, to those who disagree, that's fine.But please stop making me, and others, feel like a Republican in NY!"

really??? then what exactly is the point of this thread?

and popcultureboy, thanks for re-iterating once again, why Wicked supporters get a bad rap...

POPCULTUREBOY,
I agree. I'm not saying that I enjoy seeing 1000 threads devoted to "Can someone tell me if Idina will perform Wednesday!!"

I'm just saying that now, if ANY one brings up WICKED, people bitch. Well, guess what? and I don't mean this to be rude. We all should get used to it. WICKED's fan base is growing everyday. This is a public forum and newcommers will join and talk about WICKED.

Here's my one and only thought. IF YOU DON'T LIKE TO READ ABOUT WICKED, DON'T CLICK ON THAT THREAD. It's like changing the channel. If I don't want to see what's on, I hit the remote. I don't call up fans of that show and tell them how stupid they are to like such a show!

"really??? then what exactly is the point of this thread?"

The point of this thread, which should be obvious from the title and my first line, is DON'T HATE ME BECAUSE I EXPRESS LIKING WICKED, BECAUSE IT'S JUST ONE OF MANY SHOWS THAT I LIKE.
