Adam's always struck me as being very personable, but as time has gone by, I can see better how he might in some ways be considered a bit of an introvert.

I don't think I've heard more than one or two scattered stories of him being less-than sweet at a stage door; I usually tell people that he's nice until you piss him off. So, yeah, if provoked, he'll bitch you out, but you have to be *really* annoying to warrant anything but a smile.

I certainly haven't ever felt like he owed anything to me, which is why the way he's been *so* friendly lately is kind of jarring. Like, after I figured out who he was and started to really love him and his work, sure, I'd go and see him when I could. Now I'm in the city, and make a point to go support him as often as I can. And other than seeing him on stage and having him be mildly friendly if I wanted a photo or something after a performance, I didn't ever expect anything in return. So to suddenly have a very obvious display of appreciation for my support? It's weird. But very, very cool.

I like the orchestratations a lot better on the soundtrack. I listen to the soundtrack more often now than I do the original CD, but I don't know if that's because I truly like it better or simply for the novelty. They each have their strengths, as we all well know.

Allie, I follow the directions on the box: boil water, margarine/butter and seasoning, then add the coucous and simmer.

There are certain things I like about the OBCR, and certain things I lik ebetter on the film soundtrack. It's hard to pick which one I like better, actually. Lately I listen to the film soundtrack more.

Surprisingly I haven't been listening to either lately..

Em I wonder if he remembers the utensil adventure...

I haven't stopped listening to it since I saw the movie. To finally be able to put images to the songs makes it that much better.

Yeah, it could very well be for the novelty, too. I'll probably be back to listening to the OBC in a few days, but it's nice to hear Adam's voice toned down a bit. My friend (who loves everything Broadway) says its due to his smoking, which it very well could be, but I think it's just due to him handling the character better. Hmm.

Hi Undi!! She might be avoiding that little time bomb..

There's a lot that's mysterious about whatever is going on with him lately. Either he got that it was a joke, or he just forgot about it. We're also unsure as to just how much he knows. Like, he knew my name for about the snap of a finger, but we don't think he remembers it. The theory of Adam and Emcee, I'll call it.

Whatever. If this is as warm as he gets, I'll so take it.

I'm not sure if he's quit smoking, if he's smoking *again* or smoking *still*. But I don't think that's to blame entirely for the changes in his voice. People always forget that when he did Rent on Broadway, he was coming off of doing *maybe* one gig a month with his band. Having to sing a rock opera score eight times a week blew his voice to sh*t. His voice has matured AND he's a better actor now, which is what I think most of the changes from OBCR to soundtrack are from.

I love Near East's Roasted Garlic & Olive Oil couscous. Sometimes I'll even add in some tofu if I'm really hungry.

As for the movie soundtrack vs. OBCR, I find that I generally prefer the movie soundtrack recordings in terms of the vocals and the production, but the OBCR has so much that's missing from the movie soundtrack that I can't really choose between the two, and I can't help but wonder if my opinion is colored somewhat by being introduced to both recordings around the same time (I'm another relatively new fan). I wish that more songs had been recorded for the movie soundtrack, even if they weren't going to be used in the movie.

Do you think he knows there's more to it?

I do have to wonder if a little birdie hasn't said something to him.

He might still read some of this stuff.. **coughwhiteboyspicecough** I'm just sayin!!

Maybe it's selective amnesia brought on by traumatic events??

just teasing you Em.. He's a good sport and I'm sure he knew it was an inside joke..

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer?? But you aren't an ememy.. And stalkers belong behind bars, so I think you are good Em..

ETA: Strange that you mention that song Undi.. I seem to always picture him singing it to EM.. I thought it was just me..

See, I always see him, and I think of that song. And then I'm like "well, I don't think we're friends."

Ideally, he gets it. Simple.

Good question Undi.. Maybe she finally got aprehended in Paddy's bushes..

Em you know we are just teasing you.. Frankly anyone that isn't nice to you is a sick twisted individual is all I have to say..

I have to go now.. I'm going shopping.. Send me some self restraint.. My friend wants MAC for xmas and that store will be the death of me.. I always spend too much in there..

Well, Adam's not sick and twisted. I mean to say he's always been *nice* but now he like, goes out of his way. I'm very puzzled!

Happy shopping....

Hi Undi - it's been quite a reunion today.

But I'm getting soooo hungry.

Hey, luvtheEmcee, I obviously know absolutely nothing about your situation, but if Adam were going out of his way to be espeically nice to me, I'd just happily soak it all in without question.

I feel sick.

I wish I were hungry; I have Chinese food!

Yum!

Ugh, I have such a headache. I wish Chloe was here, and would make the dressing for me, because I don't want to get up!

And I still have laundry to do this evening. *sighs*

I don't normally post in the Adam love thread b/c it is just too hard to follow but I have to share my Adam story:

I blame it on the turkey, but the thanksgiving night I had a dream about meeting Adam at a Dodgers game and he taking me to a Q&A session with the cast of his new musical "The Dance of the Robe" (one of the songs in Aida). It had the entire OBC Aida cast. I just thought that it was so strange.
So I wake up and my family went shopping and I wandered into this flea market-type place and I found the Aida making of the musical book for $10. I felt the need to rescue it and it is such an interesting book!
So my dreams lead me to this book and I just felt the need to share. :)
