"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Why the hell is LOGO not covering the march today? Ridiculous. I'm hoping that C-SPAN will over it, I think they have in the past.
You can follow on various twitter feeds (like "broadwayspotted") stars seen in DC.

harris -- the three people I was going to go with bailed and I could not afford to go on my own. I contacted every local and state GLBT organization and NONE of them were organizing buses and some weren't even going themselves!! Very very disappointing.

CNN finally showed a 5-second clip of the March and says they will bring us more footage.
C-SPAN will cover the Rally beginning at 2pm, so that is where you will be able to see the speakers as well as the performance from HAIR.

Posted: 10/11/09 at 1:03pmSo, by Glenn Beck's estimates, it is 15 million.
#16re: NATIONAL EQUALITY MARCH: Links, Photos, Videos, Discussion!
Posted: 10/11/09 at 1:11pm15 MILLION??? That is literally impossible. The population of Washington, DC alone is roughly 600,000. That area of space cannot hold 15 million people.

I was going to go to the march with Broadway Impact but my grandfather (who helped raise me) passed away suddenly earlier this week and I have to be home with my family. But we are watching the rally on tv and are all there in spirit.
EQUALITY NOW!
David walked into the valley
With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail
-Into the Fire
