The Official Adam Pascal Love thread — Page 688

There was a discussion today that this reminded me of, in general about the RENT alumni and cast members who have branched out a bit and tried to have musical careers outside of theatre, and how their most noticable fans are the teenage girls... clearly big RENT fans.

It's unfortunate to think that if Adam hadn't gotten RENT, maybe his music wouldn't be out there at all, and obviously the nature of the fan base comes from how this all came about. I guess we can hope that eventually the spectrum does widen as his stuff gets out there, but I'm losing faith in the mainstream music industry, and unofortunately mainstream is all that matters. Nothing about it is pure anymore... it's all about superficiality. It's also kind of a roadblock that because of this industry from which his career sprang, he's not going to get the full, widespread recognition that he should be getting. It's too closed of a community. I'll spare injection of conflicting selfish comments, because that's a story in and of itself.

As for the fans themselves... after watching a lot of this go on, and admittedly being a part of it, I think he's seeing a transition. Of course, at first, people would literally just go and see this guy because they love him so much after seeing him in a musical. But it's hard, I think, to go and see him perform like this and NOT to really develop an appreciation for Adam the musician. Maybe he's just good at hiding frustration, but I think he's finally beginning to see that, and it's what he really wants.

Appologies for major incoherence; I'm trying desperately to make my post about this play semi-coherent, and it's really hard.

My stomach is in an enormous knot. I probably won't sleep very much.

And yes. I'm a living ad! Talkin' Broadway wrote a pretty decent review of the album, didn't they?

The RENT discussion was on the thread about Jeremy Kushnier... main board.

living ad....haha

Thanks, amasis. So, can I have a piece of Adam's t-shirt?

On a serious note, I try to do my part, and tell him, from the bottom of my heart, how truly incredible I think that CD is. Who knows how much he believes and how much he brushes off as "yeah, they just think I'm hot," but.... oh, I don't know what I'm trying to say.

Goodnight, Chloe! And thanks.

Adamaddict, I'm serious. Look at my signature! And to boot, I bought one of those cute Civilian pins. I have it on my bag that I take to classes.

*snort*

Well, unfortunately it's not for me to say, Emcee. But when you tackle him in March, you can try to get a piece then.

Some pointers: Make sure the subject is immobile; insert a piece of the subject's shirt between your incisors, and rapidly turn your head from side to side to create sufficient ripping force. Good luck!

And no, I never tried that with any of the Beatles. Honest.

I have a suspicion that all cooperation would cease the minute you attempt gnawing his shirt off. For one thing, you'd be thrown off the set.

So you might want to save it for last.

Good Night, Emcee!
