someone on lj went to some event on a college campus where Anthony spoke. He did a Q&A. Read and enjoy...

oh man, so many people asked questions. He spoke/answered questions for a little more than an hour. Things ranged from Rent-related stuff, to his inspirations as a child, to advice for aspiring actors, and, probably the funniest, if adam pascal was "as hot in real life as he is in pictures."

to that, anthony replied "....how am i supposed to answer that? You're talking about one of my close friends *giggles/laughs from audience and anthony*...I mean, he's a good looking guy...*pause*....He has nice eyes." At that point, the auditorium cracked up.

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Well, he is a good looking guy. I think that's why Anthony finds it so odd that I'm so afraid of Adam. This guy is his friend; he can't see why he scares me so much.

Hey everyone, haven't been able to keep up but read the last couple of pages full of interesting comments.

First of all Em, very true about LI Jews but then I was gonna say I think it's more than LI and like Tri-state Jews but the more I thought about it...what kind of Jewish mothers aren't that way?

And the whole BWW friends thing, it's interesting especially my other friends' reactions. At first when I started talking to ppl my friends had one of two reactions: how can you really consider someone you talk to in IMs a close friend or even better just be careful. But now that they know I've met so many BWWers and hang out w/ them all the time they've not only accepted those I hang out w/ but everyone and realize that they really are good, close friends of mine so it's nice to have that understanding. Plus, I think they're kinda relieved...now that I have friends to discuss bway w/, I only mention it to them in the course of oh I saw a show, met an actor, w/o going into specifics and I think they're very happy not to hear me ramble about it.

But I really feel well through many factors but I think BWW is defintely one of it has...haha sorry can't think of a better phrase...changed me for good. I was definitely quieter, esp. in big groups or w/ new people. I was never comfortable around either, especially big groups, usually I couldn't really be myself around more than like 4, now at shows and get-togethers and what not I can talk a lot or to different ppl and I have no problem starting a convo w/ a total stranger. Maybe it's just the feeling like...how can I not feel that I can be myself in a huge group of broadway lovers? or something like that.

And the craziest thing is how it comes full circle and kinda like a cycle. Most of the time, I've started talking to friends on the board and then IMing and then met them, but the two have become so intertwined sometimes it happens the opposite way...Alix for instance I barely talked to here and then we met at the 24-hour plays and a couple of other events and now we're online friends. It's just funny how it all comes full circle. But I definitely consider a lot of people here to be my closest friends.

It's funny, I'm at comm. college now but I was in a dorm for a bit last year, got really stressed out from being an overachiever, bad me. But it's weird...in addition to feeling the city is my campus...I feel like you guys are ppl in my dorm. Like I talk on aim or threads so much it doens't feel that different from the feeling of actually having ppl physically around me. And it is really weird but I do talk to BWWers online so much more than my other friends, that it feels like they're my dorm. Probably b/c we all have the internet addicitons, I mean w/ my other friends they'll come on once in a while and we go hows life and tell stories and then they sign off or I im them and they could only stay on for 5 minutes to write a paper...stuff like that.

oh no...the worst is slow walkers in nyc who randomly decide to stop in the middle of the sidewalk for...ever and it's nearly impossible to get around them.

Emmy(I call my 2 yr old cousin that I just love the name), I don't think you're really that scared to talk to him anymore.

I'm with you guys on the hating people who walk slowly in NYC. I pretty much avoid Midtown except for when I'm seeing a show because I just get too fed up with the massive stream of (mostly) tourists who don't know how to walk.

"oh no...the worst is slow walkers in nyc who randomly decide to stop in the middle of the sidewalk for...ever and it's nearly impossible to get around them. "

I recently tripped and fell on the sidewalk while trying to avoid crashing into one of those people

Ick, trying to walk in Times Square is the WORST. I mean, seriously, people, you can walk and gawk at the same time!

and then sometimes they have huge maps with them and they hold them up and take up the space of 3 people when they're just 1

People are much, much slower here in the Midwest. I can't stand it. I have long legs and if I'm going to spend energy on walking, I'm doing it because I want to get somewhere, which I want to do before next year.

I've gotten really good at dodging and squeezing in traffic on foot because of the hallways in my school. The eighth graders here are ridiculous! Yes, stand in a clump of 10 in the middle of the hallway, why don't you?!

Here people aren't as slow as they are even where I'm originally from, but they're so concentrated.

anyone watching SNL? there was a rent joke

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 12/11/05 at 12:17am

No, but what was it?

They mentioned that CBGB's will be moving because they couldn't pay their rent. Tina said "How much rent did they owe?" Then Tina and Amy both sang "525,600 dollars!"

Or better than the maps, they stop to take really stupid pictures, then take forever to take it, and then if they try to take someone you try to be nice and wait so you don't interfere w/ the picture but then like they can't get the flash to go on or something...ick!

But as bad as it for us, sometimes we don't realize how awful some ppl have it w/ these ppl...when I was walking in times square w/ my friend in a wheelchair, I saw how bad it is for her. At one point ppl stopped to have a conversation on the ramp and she could not go anywhere...finally after 3 minutes we finally like yelled at them to move...I mean everyone else could go around them fine but...ulgh.

I don't even consider myself that fast a walker...but apparently it comes out when there's crowds and stuff...when I was in DC I was such the NYer telling my friends it's okay to cross if it says don't walk but no cars are coming, cutting in front of ppl, it was unreal to them.

I hate having songs with "Track #" type titles, so I attempted to go through the old Adam songs that Em sent out (thank you for sharing, btw) and give them names. Some of them are actually covers.

I don't know if I should post the track list or not, so PM me if you're interested.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 12/11/05 at 9:35am

Oh, yeah. Sorry! I forgot to tell you that some of the stuff in the group of songs with the numbers doesn't really belong there. The first few are old Wine and Vision songs, so far as I can tell, but the last two are from more recent Sh-k-Boom concerts. The cover of Under Pressure is only like three years old -- that's Adam with Michael Cerveris. The folder was put online, zipped, and when I got it, I was really surprised to find recent covers in a "Wine and Vision" folder.
