Wow, a LOT of people were there last night, heh.
The show was frozen the day before yesterday, so that was its final form. :) Or, as final as any Doyle show will ever be, since I would assume he'll come back in periodically as he did with Sweeney.
I'm fearful that I'll burn it out if I give in too much to loving it. I see it coming, and I would hate for that to happen, so I'm going to be careful.

Everyone go here and watch the video for the concert that's going on tomorrow! At the very end you see Raul shaking it with Daphne Rubin-Vega!

So, anyone know anyone who's going? Maybe bring back some... uh, 'presents'?

He's not performing in the benefit anymore, 'cause it would have needed him to take off from Company.

Well, it wasn't like, announced. I happened to check the most recent posted lists of her performers and his name isn't on them, which I thought peculiar, so I checked with my spies and found out he wouldn't be out tonight.

Why was he crying? Is that part of the show?

Well, it's not like, scripted that he cries, no. But the end of the show is really, really emotional. He wasn't hysterical or anything. :)

I saw it and it still hurts. This sounds so weird, but I wish I had cried. All my emotions are all still bottled up in me and I've been so high-strung about it since Saturday night that it's starting to physically impact me. I should try to write something to get it out of my system, but I haven't the slightest clue where to start and my writing has been seriously handicapped lately anyway.

Speaking of pain, when he screams at the end of the show, it actually hurts me. Kind of like SJB and your uterus, Elphie. :) It's just so... okay, I can't find the word, but it actaully causes me pain. I don't mean that in a bad way at all; it's really powerful. But I just start trembling.

Ugh, don't remind me, Em! I still get phantom pains when I think about it. 
I've had those trembling experiences before. They're intense.

I just went back and read some of Part 1, starting at page 9. I sounded so BUBBLY. And wierd. So funny! It makes me all nostalgic. Those were some good times.

Phantom pains? I know not those. But I definitely just like, cried. Out of nowhere.
My body is really messed up lately. I think the steroids screwed with everything they possibly could, including my brain. So I'm like "COMPANY! *SOB*"
I always read old posts and go "wow, I was dumb."

Yeah, phantom pains. I'll like, think about this one scene Stephanie did, even three weeks later, and I'll get a little twinge in my lower abdomen. Yup.
Ugh, this is going to sound SO loser-ish, but after seeing Wicked for the first time, I got back to our apartment and spend the rest of the day alternating between laughing hysterically and bursting into tears. Not quite the same as your tears, I don't think, but still.
I sound SO dumb in my old posts, but I like reading them. This thread was seriously my home. And we got so incredibly dirty. Well, YOU guys did.
Ahem.

Are you implying that I should... shower? :)
Well, Fantab and I were talking about how with a show that you really connect with, when you see it the first time, it never hits you that way again, no matter how much you love it. And that's something to consider when you decide if you want to see it multiple times, or just hold on to that. So I was saying that with Company, I obviously had a really huge reaction the first time I saw it in New York and I know that's never going to happen again exactly that way. But today I made some reference to wanting to frame my poster and ticket stubs or whatever "when it's all over." Because... eventually it will be over. But I thought of it in that "see? I'm ready, I know it's going to come" sort of way. I hope it's not for quite a long time, but whenever it does go away, it's never going to come back. And I'm already too in love for that.
And then there were tears.

Yes, I think a nice cold one is in order. :-P
Oh geez, you're already making me cry and I haven't even seen it yet!

Wow. Page 13 of part 1 was me freaking out about college and senior year. How has it already been over a year?! It's kind of cool that the things I was worried about mostly didn't come true.
Is it strange that I remember writing most of the posts on that thread? I'll read it and go, "Oh I was sitting here when I wrote that!" or "This had just happened when I wrote that!"
