I loved Cary, he was my first Roger.
I have like...7 different versions of Cary singing OSG. Whoops?

Dan Rosenbaum was my first Roger.
Matt and Cary were my first Mark and Roger. Way before Matt started sucking, and he had spikey hair. This was like 2001.

People used to love Matt, and they were so outraged that he got replaced by Joey. It's kind of sad that most people have done a complete 180 of that opinion now.
I liked Cary, but I thought he seemed a little...bored up there. I actually didn't mind Matt at all.
I think that both Matt and Cary were terribly bored for the last few months. Matt was actually quite good when I was there in January.
Manley was my first Roger. I've refused though to watch or hear any clips of him though, as I think I liked him much better then than I would now, so I'll just keep that memory.
Let's see...I had Jay once as Roger Em. Just some I can think of off the top of my head:
Colin Hanlon
Ryan Link
Chad Richardson
That's all I can think of.
I watched a B'way on B'way video of Manley last night. He's such a cutie.
Indeed.
Jesse: Manley's been in Rent and umm...Manley, what else have you been in?
I had Colin Hanlon as Mark. He was great.
I saw Chad as Mark, but I know more people who saw him as Roger. He was wonderful.
I had Colin as Mark too...instead of Drew, so I was thrilled. He was really good.
And I just saw him in I Love You Because on Thursday (so cute) and he was wonderful and adorable in that.
Yeah, I had Colin instead of Matt. If it wasn't for that, I would have had Matt every time that I saw the show.
The first time I saw Matt, he was "back" to fill in for Drew during his vacation. I ended up seeing Drew a few months later, and liked him better.

To the Adam fanatics -- does anyone know of a song called "Inevitable" by either Mute or APB? I downloaded a zip file from the LJ community that was filled with (supposedly) Mute/APB songs. Inevitable is tagged as a Mute song, but I've never heard it before, and it's definitely not one of the eight songs on their CD.
There are too many mystery songs.
...I should be studying for exams.

Really? I've been able to put names on most of the random old songs I've downloaded, but then again, I haven't been collecting files for years.
There's also another song I haven't heard before, apparently entitled "Mute." I can upload them for you girls, if you'd like. The quality sounds like it's been copied from cassette tape to cassette tape, but if anyone is interested...
See, what we need to do is make Adam sit down with us and an iPod and make him tell us about all these weird songs that people keep discovering.

Haha, we could somehow transfer them to his. He'd be all, "What the hell is this crap?"
Most of the Mute songs sound the same, really. I like some of them, but in all honesty, it's probably just because of the Adam factor.

Agreed about Mute songs...although they are rather interesting for studying...
Manley was my first Roger...I know there's a lot of not good feelings toward him, and upon revisiting it, I might feel differently...but we saw him on an on night...he really was good...
Who knew it was so flipping hard to find cookie cutters in April? I certainly didn't...but alas, beautimously decorated cookies are in our near future

Studying as in studying the songs themselves or background music while studying?

As in the songs themselves....listening to the differences and such...development...progression from some of the old stuff to his recent stuff (I realize he wasn't the only Mute member....but you can hear it)...
*realizes the inner music nerd is taking over* Woops.
