Squeezing Emcee for details on AIM and waiting for other people to breathe some life into the angst and random threads.

camerangel, I really did flip out. This board is more important to me than it should be.

"bdway, I love your new avatar. What's it from?"

insomniak, it's from Euan's 11/12 gig at the Zipper. I call it "Cheerleader Euan". I put it up in honor of his returning to the U.K. today, well yesterday now.

I had a great time tonight. Thanks again, guys, for letting me sit with you!!

QM, waaaaaaaaaayyyy to much muppets and boobs!

'how many heart attacks did we all have when we couldn't access the site.. Man it's as if our oxygen was cut off.. Definately addicted..'


I deffinately had a minor panic attack... but after I restarted the computer it worked. I must have typed in www.broadwayworld.com at least 5 times just to make sure I wasn't typing it in wrong before I figured out that it wasn't working though.

Bdwaygirl, it was our pleasure to have you with us! And the boobs were offensive!

So what is up with the muppets and boobs? Is this a joke that can't be shared?

[OneBlazeOfGlory]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:22am

yes do tell...

[camerangel]

Emcee is writing the review now... she HAS to mention the boobs. And she will as they really pissed me off. Bear with us... or with Emcee! Hurry up, girl!
The crowd is getting impatient!

I dunno if I only speak for myself, but no pressure Emcee... I have no life, so take as long as you need to write a good review

[insomniak]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:28am

Emcee accidentally deleted her entire post, she's retyping.

Patience, all! Not that I know a thing about it, but maybe if I pretend I do I'll adopt the trait.

"on a funny note im pretty sure that a couple of u girls were behind me on line waiting to get in becasue it sounded like i was living in a thread listening to u girls talk."

b-way buff, where were you on the line? You're talking about when we were waiting to get let into Joe's right? Or are you talking about backstage?

Emcee definitely cannot leave out the boobs OR the muppets.

Patience is a virtue!

Awww, I just got sad. Just finished listening to the Aida cast recording. The ending is so bittersweet. But Yay, Model Prisoner is on now. WEEEE!!!

'Emcee accidentally deleted her entire post, she's retyping.'

aaah the internet apparently does not want us to read this review...

[insomniak]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:33am

It just doesn't like us at all tonight.

[camerangel]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:34am

I never claimed to virtuous!

But I will be patient I suppose..

Damn it. I just had a lot typed out and it got lost. Oh, well.

Tonight was a really perfect (for the most part) culmination of an incredible year, theatre-wise; lots of silly, random, wonderful things, great people and... Adam.

First little ironic thing: the waitress was saying what kinds of drinks they had... Sodas, juices --> pineapple juice. I cracked up laughing. Etheb was like "she'll have pineapple juice." I just had to. Some interesting jokes ensued.

Anyway, the show. Adam was so much better tonight that he was last time, perhaps the best I have ever, ever seen him; he seemed much more comfortable up there, and had a lot more energy. It always makes me so warm and fuzzy, seeing how happy he is up there. He really is simply a joy to watch. He's proving himself as a truly BRILLIANT musician, and there is one HELL of a rock star in there. He sang the new CD in a different order this time, but did the song Model Prisoner instead of Mother's Child. He said he¡¦d had a lot of requests for stuff from the old album, so yay. His encore was Maybe This Time from Cabaret (preceded by "y'all like showtunes?!"), which made my weekend; I mean, Kander and Ebb probably never intended for the song to be accompanied by a Fender, but it was a spine-chilling rendition. He also did Beautiful Song for the encore, and ended up returning again to do Glory because people kept screaming for it. There were a lot of VERY young fans there tonight, who were (unfortunately) clearly pissing him off, but he was good about it for the most part. They were inexplicably loud and obnoxious, and rocked out to Book of Endings lost in oblivion as to what it was about. Interestingly enough, after the song he addressed the controversy that's been surrounding it; he said it's "very tongue-in-cheek," then left it alone. Anyway, these "muppets" would NOT stop screaming "GLORY, GLORY!" After Maybe... he was like "I'll do Glory next time!
but he came back out again and said "you talked me into it! You want it, you got it!" It was still beautiful, but it's not as special when you've got thirteen-year-olds screaming for it. I'm glad I was sane when I was fourteen. VERY glad. They were rather embarrassing... and annoying. The other thing that¡¦s always interesting is to hear him speak about his music. He¡¦s not the most articulate, but it's really touching to hear this stuff from him, because it's so heartfelt.

Okay, so show ended, and we trotted off backstage. Funny story... TGIF literally walked into Cybele. We waited until the crowd cleared, and were just about to go over to him. She had just finished talking to someone, and was about to go in the opposite direction that we were headed. Neither she or TGIF were paying particular attention. I was right behind her, and tried to tell TGIF quietly that we didn't need any collisions tonight; alas, well, it was kind of funny. Apologies abound.

Anywho, Adam took off RIGHT before we got to him. This is the other thing that bugged me; some woman who apparently works for him came out. This is the "boobs" QM was referring to. This woman may as well have not been wearing her shirt. She was HORRIBLY condescending and counted how many people wanted pictures and autographs, paying no mind to the fact that maybe some of us just wanted to talk to him. Then she asked that we refrain from individual pictures since he had family and friends waiting; understandable, of course, and I have several anyway, but she was such a b*tch about it ("Next time come earlier and we'll let you get individual pictures"), playing him off to be a diva and such. Maybe I'm just spoiled in the fact that I've had a lot of really personal meeting with him, but it was kind of bothersome. Oh, well. I didn't let it bother me too much.

Adam appeared a few minutes later, and everyone hesitated as to who would go first. I think I went up to him second. A friend of mine had given me a RENT OBC playbill. "Hey, my friend is on a mission to have all of you guys sign this, so, could you help him out with that?" Adam laughs a little: "Well, good luck to him with that!" He said Jesse was supposed to be there, but couldn't make it. (Oh, yes. Sherie Rene Scott and Schele Williams were there...I had such an AIDA freak out moment, but couldn¡¦t muster the courage to go talk to them.) Anyway, me: "great show, by the way." Adam thanked me, then TM Cara, etheb and I went to take a picture with him. *squeal* We all thanked him, and he put a hand on my shoulder and thanked us for coming. Yay. We were just about to leave, and etheb stopped walking. I guess she had seen Adam coming around the corner to head back to the bar, and was like "do you want your hug?¡¨ I was just about to say "oh, no... it's okay. Don't worry," but before I could even open my mouth, she was like "Adam, could she have a hug?" I turned around and found him literally right next to me, still just about to tell her not to worry about it... he grinned and said "sure!!" and before I knew it I was wrapped up in his arms. I was so surprised... all I could say was "aww, thank you!" Adam: "thanks sweetie!" YAY!

Yay.

I'm sorry to hear about the annoying little girls. Was it mostly them?

I must say, I have never seen a post quite like that. Where did all those funky symbols come from?

[b-way buff]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:42am

when we were waiting to get into joes pub

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:42am

I fixed the symbols - it's because I copied it from word.

yeah, they were annoying, but I didn't let it bug me TOO much. And this clearly wasn't goodbye... just goodbye for now.

[bdwaygirl]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:43am

YAY, Emcee!!

Annoying doesn't describe them. I wanted to knock their heads together. They were so oblivious. He actually sang Book Of Endings straight at them! I thought that was hysterical!

[insomniak]

Posted: 11/28/04 at 1:45am

Exactly.

bdway, how exactly at them? I got a lovely mental image of him getting up in the faces of some giggly group of kids in braces with their mommies and screaming at them.
