The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part ten — Page 195

I'm sure it does, and I expect the scent of baking cookies to waft its way over the thread at any moment.

I took a look at the Bay Shore venue, and it's a 500 seat theater in quite a nice building. I'm sensing the possibility of the Broadway show with a band there. Apparently the Metropolitan Room is considered an excellent new cabaret space with a great sound system, so Adam's doing well. The Queens Theatre is great looking too. Here's a pic -

That's great to hear - so many seats sold almost two months before the event. And yes, the Brentwood was supposed to be about that size though people who were there felt that it was smaller. The Queens Theatre is about 250.

I'm finally listening to Adam's new songs. They are so beautiful. Although, probably listening to them isn't the best idea given my present messed up situation. Stupid boys.

I'm sorry that those boy issues still haven't been worked out. Feel free to let us know what's going on if you'd like.

What's your favorite from the new songs, though?

Hehe, "feel the love."

Anyway, I'm sorry about your confusing situation. I'd give advice, but I'm not really in the position to give romantic advice, nor do I even know what I would say if I were. I hope everything works out.

That's rough Sarah. I've never been in that kind of inner circle situation, so I'm not sure what to tell you either. I'll take a stab at it though - keep cool, don't rush anything, don't jump to any conclusions based on what he does one way or the other.

The love song is really special. I like the fact that he wrote about not being well-prepared for life by his childhood. I wrote down most of the lyrics if you want them. There were a few I just couldn't get.

Do any of you watch the TNT series Saved? They use Under Pressure as their theme song, which brings up all kinds of associations with me that I'm sure they never intended.

Yay for the additional shows.

Maybe if one is the more "cabaret" gig and one is the Broadway one, I'll go to one of each. I dunno.

For the record, Joe's Pub also has a two drink minimum. It means nothing; you can buy sodas. He won't allow an age restriction.

I'm listening to The Love Song right now. My little sister (knows Adam from Rent OBC, movie, & little bits & pieces of his solo work) is within listening distance. She says that Adam's voice (in this song) sounds like he's yelling too much. She likes him better when he sings Rent.

I know what she's talking about. She's prettyyoung. She dioesn't underind the meaning of the words. And the Rent recordings are much more clear/better in quality. When I started listening to Adam's solo work, I was reluctant to listen to his music because I was scared of what I would here. His feelings & stuff like that. In Rent he was just playing Roger, so you kinda know what's gonna happen, in terms of his feelings & what he's gonna say/sing.

Sarah- That happens to me all the time. Like when I see a pineapple or a spork. =P

You'd think that they'd have to announce the dates officially pretty soon, although I don't exactly trust his management or booking agency. It's weird that the Bay Shore show has sold more than half of the seats already; I guess he'll probably have a crowd full of primarily casual fans.

Angela, I think he sounds a lot more screamy, for the lack of a better word, on the Rent recordings than on that song. Are you sure your sister is remembering the right guy? Heh. I do understand your feelings of wanting to remain ignorant to something or someone, although that's never really happened to me with regards to Adam.

Yeah, she doesn't want me on the subways. Ever. Which is why she's giving me trouble.

So the trolley only runs for a half an hour after the performance? That's not very long. :/ What happens after that, you're stuck?

Good for you Elphie. Enjoy -

Emcee, not on any subways? I've ridden them for many years and the worst that's happened to me is being jostled. Thirty years ago the city was much less safe than it is now, and maybe that's what she's remembering. Now NYC is way down on the list of dangerous cities.

Not so much safety as concern 'cause I'm asthmatic. Which I understand, but eventually they're going to have to know that I do use them, and let me do it without argument. Today I was talking to them about it, and I was like "you know, eventually I *am* going to have to start using them regularly," and my dad got really upset, telling me I can take cabs for the rest of my life. Does he not get that that's REALLY expensive? Ugh. Busses are just. so. slow.
