The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, Part 13 — Page 38

I love just sitting there before the show listening to people. At intermission the middle aged woman behind me kept saying that the Playbill was wrong and it couldn't be the same Roger from the movie. Her husband was like "honey, it's the high def. And now he has stage make up to hide his wrinkles."

Haha. That's a good one. Maybe it was the hair. But that's kind of the same reason I hang around after the show -- I like to watch the stage door frenzy and listen to what people are saying. This girl started talking to skittles and I one night about how she saw Anthony walking down the street in the city once, but she didn't want to approach him because she couldn't remember his real name... and she wasn't (thankfully) about to call him Mark. We tried to tell her what a nice guy he is, etc., and her response was like "oh, I know, but I was pretty much hyperventilating." When stuff like that happens, in my head, I'm just kind of like, ".... I don't know how to talk to you."

Not knowing someone's name could put a damper on things. :P

I'm really excited now, with nothing to do. It's going to be a long day...

Actually, I went to the box office around 2 yesterday. I had a choice of second to last row rear mezz or C ORCH. There goes money I don't have down the drain. I argued with the guy because he wanted me to pay $95. My theory is that they were press seats that went unused because the group of 3 siting next to me had only bought their tickets yesterday as well.

The hyperventilating part should not happen when you meet someone. Unless you're seeing George Clooney naked that's the only time I will consider that exceptable But being nervous to meet a celeb I can completely understand.

Me too! I hate going all the way there not knowing if I'm seeing the show or not. I get out of work just late enough that I wouldn't make it to do the lotto, which sucks because I'm right there. I think going alone last night was part of the reason I didn't enjoy it was much. I left feeling oddly lonely.

Haha, yeah that's why. I was wandering around aimlessly for about 4 hours.

I've come to the point where I'm pretty much completely composed on the outside. I was never like, anywhere near hyperventilating, but I'd just be really quiet and visibly nervous. But inside, my head is just a mess. Clear-eyed thought basically goes on vacation, and my mind is just flooded with all of these completely conflicting thoughts -- what to do and say... what NOT to do and say, things to remember, "omg this is so cool!" etc. -- to the point that I can, to be cliche, barely hear myself think.

Jenna, did you end up winning said argument?

---

I know Anthony is taking part in the flea market (and hopefully Adam will too eventually), do you think they will be doing the Broadway on Broadway performance?

---

Haha, I was like "Um, in two hours this ticket will be $55." He ended up letting me use the discount code. Still more money than I wanted to spend.

I don't think I'm going to go, for exactly that reason. Standing around all day and needing binoculars to see, not my idea of a good time. But I was just wondering if the rent marketing people are going to try and generate publicity for all of this return besides the boys just showing up on stage each night. Get the boys on a talk show already! Have them sing, show the world that yes they can still do it and no they are not too old. But whatever. I am just a lowly peon.

They really could've marketed this a lot better, but to be honest with you, I don't know how many people watching the Today Show care that these two guys are coming back to Broadway. I wonder if this is as big of a deal to people outside of the Broadway community. I wonder how back to school will effect the sales.
