Need you ask? I am ALWAYS around.
Wait... I probably shouldn't be proud there, huh?
It's a quiet night, I guess Nia. Detox? As in less BWW?

I gave up on that for awhile, too. I made it all evening, though!

Chloe- the teens and twentysomething crowd decided we spent WAY too much time here, so we were all going to to away for a day and chill out since a break seemed to do me so much good. I wasn't on yesterday and I'm just getting off a long break, so I feel like chatting with people. So no detox time for me.
Will the new HAIR be in stores?
Probably, nia. Sh-k-Boom will probably do a pre-order release like usual, then release it to stores.
SO EXCITED.

How much do you want to bet that it won't come to stores in Halifax?
I will mail you one, Allie!
I've been spending a lot of time here and on the internet too. I rationalize it by telling myself that soon I'll be working 12 hours a day. My detox will be involuntary.
Sorry about Halifax, Allie. We'll just have to work out a way to get things to you up there.

Hopefully amazon.com will have it... I LOVE Hair. *bounces in anticipation of new recording*

yaaaaay!
It's been so long since I've seen or heard Hair, aside from the B'way.com clips. And I probably have never heard the complete Broadway version either, just the movie. This should be fun!
Moving to NY = excellent idea for anyone

I think I would love it there, but there's no way it could happen.

Chloe, go by the second digitally remastered CD of Hair NOW. It's FANTASTIC. I never get sick of it. I do not actually like the movie's versions of the songs, they can't hold a candle to the OBC.
"there's no way it could happen. "
You mean right now or ever?

I'm not sure... I think it would be an AMAZING trip, but it's a little expensive for me. Because I know I couldn't do it half-assed. It's not enough to just fly to NY and stay at a hotel or something. I need a Broadway show, museums, everything. That adds up!
I'm sure I'll get there eventually, though!

Nia, what's the "second digitally remastered" version - do you mean this is the second time it's been remastered?
Yeah, as I recall the movie wasn't terrible but...
Allie, probably your biggest expense would be the hotel, but I understand there are all kinds of deals to be had, packages and so forth. Museums aren't that much, especially for students, and there are the student theater tickets, lotteries, half-price booth.
I know what you mean about wanting to go first class all the way though - in a place like NY that certainly has its allure, but I don't think it's your only choice.
But you first mentioned moving, rather than visiting. When I moved here, I had a couple of sticks of furniture and about three months worth of rent in my bank account. It was tough but I somehow managed to find an apartment, get a job, etc. It's truly an incredible place.

Oh, living there would be great! I can't really see me moving away from the Maritimes though. I'm fairly attached to the Atlantic Ocean! But I'm only in my first year at university, so who knows?

Allie, check out some youth hostels. They're something like thirty bucks a night and pretty safe, so I hear.
Chloe, this is it-
Hair

I'm seriously going to look into a trip to NYC. Maybe NEXT summer!
Anyway, I'm going to bed. I wish it were the weekend already.
'night Allie!
Night, Allie!
Thanks, Nia, it's ordered! That one-click thing is marketing genius.
ETA: you might want to name the link, since it's making the page so wide.

Yay, Chloe. Tell me how you like it.
Anyone else still around?
I can't believe I've never seen the movie.
Maybe I should do that.
