I agree, Nia. I love that song, but when I saw the show I was like "This is wierd."

No, I don't think Adam should do it again. He NEEDS to move on.

I want badly to see him in a Chess revival. *hugs Chess CDs*

Some of the set was cool, though. Looooved the lighting.
#10128

Adam Love

I doubt it too. He was in it so long.

I like your idea, nia, but I think they'd have to change some of the music too in that case. I remember Elton talking about the show as being conceived as somewhat campy, and he wrote music to go along with that idea. The campiness was toned down when the show was changed in Chicago, but it's certainly still there.

whee, Adam. Chess. whee!

I can see the intentional camp, but the show is so very divided. At times it wants to be so beautiful (Written in the Stars), but that is sort of spoiled, I guess, by My Strongest Suit and the like. If it wanted to be campy, the tragic ending was not the way to go.

Emcee, are you sniffing my rubber cement?

Adam Love

Mandi, thanks for the info. Please check your PMs. :)

Em, thanks for the advice, although I'd assume that a first-generation recording could be of horrible quality as well, no? If the equipment used to record the performance was mediocre in the first place, the result will never be great regardless of generation.

Fantabulous: His site is here: (edited out)

I'm barely familiar with Aida, but there's no real way that there would be a revival after only about a year, right?

Could be poorly shot, nothing you can do about that. But it's something of a way to measure.

It all worked for me in the end because, though it was far from the strongest part of the show, the campiness served as comic relief. It may be something that's more effective in the heat of the theatrical moment than on the CD or a video.

I'm still holding out for The Wall myself. I should try to find out if that's even still happening.

Emcee! *is shocked*

Wouldn't it be better *not* to post that link here, considering it's b-word talk, and illegal and all?

Cement?
#10137

Adam Love

Definetly. We don't think this thread is moderated, but the boards are slow and Jose' might feel like popping in.

That's very possible, Chloe. How many times have you seen it?
#10138

Adam Love

I just took down the link. I didn't know it was against BWW policy to discuss bootlegs, but if it is, I don't want to start any trouble. Sorry!
#10139

Adam Love

siamese, there's an FAQ- you can access it from the links above the board alongside all links to the other boards. (sorry, that was a redundent sentence) It's long, but very funny and informative.

You should edit the rest of the post, too- no discussion of bootlegs is allowed.

Chloe, Rubber Cement is like a very strong glue with very noxious fumes.

Adam Love

It does smell good, sometimes, though!

It's okay, Siamese! No harm done. Adam Love

I've seen Aida twice. The first time was last year in mid-August. I knew it was closing and had just heard some of the demos Elton made for the show. I liked the music more than I thought I would and didn't want to miss out on it. I was also interested to learn that this guy Adam Pascal, whom I'd met once and seen in School of Rock, was back in it. I vaguely remembered his name from when the show opened, and when Elton was on Rosie O'Donnell once, he'd said something complimentary about him.

I really loved the show, and everyone around me seemed to be loving it too. It was so spectacularly beautiful and enjoyable on so many levels. It really got me interested in Adam too. I read in his bio about how he'd been in RENT and started looking into that, found this board on the internet, and on the spur of the moment went to see the last show.

Sorry to sound defiant, but I'm probably just going to leave the post as it is. Quite a few of us alluded to bootlegs, so I don't think one post is going to make a huge difference.

Chloe -- sounds like a cool story! I'll be the lame one and admit that I really didn't get into Adam until the Rent movie. I liked his voice on the OBCR, but I didn't really bother to put names to faces for *any* of the performers on the recording.

Adam Love

Elphie, I don't sniff it, I wouldn't know. I understand if you need a drug vice, though- raping fruit flies is hard on one's pysche.

How was meeting him way back when? I can't seem to remember what you told me about it, other than that he was a nice guy.

Glad you enjoyed it. Adam Love

Siamese, there's nothing lame about becoming a fan from the movie. It's kind of encouraging.

Nia, I met Adam in a work-related situation, and I was struck by how different he is from most actors. I love 'em, but they tend to be very insecure and needy, though in mostly lovable ways. He didn't come across that way - he seemed much more self-sufficient. Friendly and nice, but not looking for approval or "performing" for the rest of the people in the room.

After seeing Brokeback (my first Jake Gyllenhaal movie!) I'm curious about him.

He's a real sweetheart, very open and friendly. He's so young to be dealing with all this stuff, though he grew up in a show biz family. That must help.
#10147

Adam Love

Adam Love I like that story.

Emcee, I've seen him in other things, but for some reason I can't think of what it was that I liked him so much in right now.
#10148

Adam Love

Gaah, rubber cement. I used to volunteer at a library, and when we used that stuff to glue the card pockets into the books, the fumes made me so dizzy.

I recently bought the Aida OBCR and fell in love with it. I could kick myself for not going to see the show when it was on Broadway. I vaguely remember my mom wanting to see it, but I was in a "nothing my mother is interested in could possibly be good" phase at the time. Argh.

*cry*
The face recognition site said I looked like this guy!
Adam Love

My self-esteem is shattered! Can someone please reassure me that I do not look like a 100 year-old man?!

That's just how I feel about Rent. I could have seen the OBC. ::represses a dry sob::
