A simple red bow works for me! If you can tie the CIVILIAN CD right there as one package, it would be cool.

Edit: NoDay, customs officials usually have a leeway on how long they want to keep an item at the port, but believe me, if you don't release my delivery after one day max, there will be a RIOT!!!

Judging by my Cabaret experience... erm... maybe... depending on the 'status' of the package. *runs*

I'm surprised, QM. I thought you'd be able to judge based on your own personal 'One Night in Bangkok' experience.

Okay, I think we should go to Bangkok. NOW.

AHHHHHHHHHH!

Intelligent posts from this end tonight, no?

I always got scared and ran!!!

Yes, indeed that is the song. And he said that line so nicely.

"Insomniak, you cannot compare the sets of Aida to Rent. The Aida sets are MASSIVE. What I was trying to say is that the Broadway Aida sets were so wonderful that there is NO WAY they can have the same sets or same effects etc for a show that is in town for two days. They haven't got the time to build sets, they have to be scaled down BIG TIME. That doesn't mean they are going to be 'crap' (your words, not mine) but they are not going to be anywhere close to the sets on Broadway."

Well gee, after all the flames I had thrown my way I was sure there was more to AIDA than elaborate sets and that it was great in every other regard, too. Anyway, if a show needs fancy sets to make it fly I don't want to see it at all. The Lion King bored me after twenty minutes because it was all set and no story, good songs or interesting actors.

Where are you seeing him Monday, Emcee?

I have a confession to make, guys. Now, don't throw big rocks at me (little ones are understandable) but I did not own Model Prisoner until yesterday. I'd heard parts, but not the whole thing. So here are my thoughts after a listen or two:

Like a Razor- I like it a lot. It took me a bit to appreciate the lyrics, you really have to listen, but it's really good.

Just Here to the Left of You- The chorus is good, but not after the first five times. There is a thing called overkill. But other than that, I like it. And yes Adam, your smile does send me into oblivion. Your voice does it too, and I'm blaming you for my lack of productivity on my art project. It's hard to concentrate when he's singing.

Every Time Around- Sweet and sad. <3s

Model Prisoner- Ok, the guitar just kinda bugs me in all the verses, but the chorus is great. I really love it, it's what I feel like a lot of days.

Which Way to Nowhere- I LOVE this song. It has "Petrified" potential. (meaning I can play it for hours) <3 the lyrics, the way he sings it and the overall depressing tone. I want to hug him. It's ok Adam, I don't need the mountain, you're good enough.

The Time it Takes to Fall- Bleh. I do not like it, it's just not my thing at all. I don't like every song on a single CD I own, though, so that's ok.

Ordinary Boy- I could listen to your voice all night too, Adam, if you sing this song. That makes you way better than ordinary.

Cellophane Sun- I particularly love the chorus, but the rest is good too.

The One That Got Away- I despise all music remotely country except for this. Did he play the harmonica here?

Precious Little Meltdown- Write more angry songs, Adam! I love this one.

Rhyme and Reason- Me like.

Undiscovered- This is one of my favorites. I love the whole thing, it's really well written, I think.

Overall:
I was expecting more loud stuff, but it's good. The bad thing is that it's all very similar and nothing really reaches out and grabs me. You have to listen closely or you'll miss it. I wish there was more variety, but what there is is good. He sounds very different here than on OBCRs, I don't know how to explain it. His voice is just more... clear on them. Here it's kind of clouded over. I can't describe it. He's got such a beautiful voice, I wish I could hear it better.

This is a long post so I'll stop here for now.

Glad you liked Model Prisoner! I definitely agree with you about the songs. "Which Way to Nowhere" is such a great song. After I got the album, I had it on repeat for awhile.

Civilian- I really can't wait for it! November seems like so far away!! And so does October 10th...
