Hi, I've been away a couple of days.

Sorry I missed you Undi --

So, anything new?

Posted: 6/17/06 at 11:29pm

Undiscovered, you should post in here more often if you can. I wasn't on the thread when you popped in on a more regular basis, but I really enjoy your posts.

I hope you're having a good night, Jane. I'm a bit of an emotional wreck, but everything should turn out okay.

I'm okay. It was good to get away to the country a bit.

Sorry you're not feeling good, Lexi.

I wonder why Adam has a problem remembering lyrics. He never has any trouble remembering the notes, so maybe it's some kind of hiccup in the language side of the brain. My theory about OSG (which I've probably bored you with before) is that he first learned it wrong and did it wrong quite a few times, and that wrong version got kind of imprinted and keeps tripping him up.

Somewhere, he talks about being on book for Pity the Child, and says it's something about the song structure -- Pity the Child has no chorus, which makes it notoriously difficult for anybody to memorize, but since he mentioned that, I guess the problem probably does lie in song structure; cause you need some kind of stable "thing" to keep returning to to remember where you are and not reverse lyrics, etc.

That's interesting - do you have any idea where he talked about it?

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:11am

And I thought I'd heard every Chess-related interview...

I want to say he mentions it in his second Chatterbox, but I'm not totally sure.... I feel like that'd make sense, right? Since they watch the clip? But... maybe it's not.

Wow, that was so incredibly unhelpful.

I was in a children's choir for years and I always thought choruses made songs harder to memorize (we always had to be off book because it "looks better" ) because repeating it after every verse made it difficult to stay on track of which verse was coming up next.

Maybe this will cheer some of us up a bit:



It's Adam before he makes himself pretty, apparently.

heh. I giggled at that part in the documentary.

What is it that he's eating?

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:28am

That is such an unflattering picture.

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:29am

He looks so old in that screen cap.

Looks like something in the bread department. Or turkey. =P

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:31am

haha look at his hair. =P

I think it's turkey?

[picturetaker9211]

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:32am

Ok, maybe not that old.

Like...in his 40s. Which Adam is nearing. I believe he's turning 36 this year?

And he looks raggedy.

Aw, Undi. I don't think he looks old at all; just extremely haggard. What a face to wake up to!

It's turkey.

It's a multi-million dollar movie and yet it looks like something they'd serve in a campus dining hall. Klassy.

Adam actually looks like someone that got lost on his way to a soup kitchen.

Alex- His hair reminds me of a mullet. =P

[Chloe]

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:37am

A bit unkempt, maybe, but not old.

Undi, I'm probably more entitled to a cane than you, so don't crawl away.

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:41am

Skittles, your post made me laugh, especially since you spelled it "klassy."

I'm pretty sure that he doesn't discuss it in the Chatterbox, either, but I wanted to let some others weigh in before I opened my mouth. I don't remember the interview too well, other than his marijuana joint gesture. I think Chloe once pointed out that he's not too big on gestures, but when he does them, they're rather... pointed.

Adam looks like he just got out of bed in that picture. You guys just made my night.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:43am

I'll try to figure out which interview it's in. This is going to drive me nuts; I can hear him saying it in my head!

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:44am

The Aida videos I have don't show the sailing gesture. It's pretty disappointing. Heh.

[picturetaker9211]

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:45am

"other than his marijuana joint gesture."

Wasn't that in a broadway.com interview?

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 6/18/06 at 12:47am

<--- old, but gooood. I was deciding between this and the Rent cap of his tummy.

The sailing gesture was a new addition, after he learned how to be a better actor. Ironic, yeah?
