Hee, I'm just superfast.
And yeah, what the hell? I love his name.

Psh. His name makes him stand out! Better than Dave Thomas or something.
I LOVE his name. I'd be sad if he changed it.

Fantab is right. Mano's name makes him stand out. Plus, it's a really cool name.

I'm glad he opted to keep his name. It's unique.
But it confuses people if they don't do their research...
While waiting in line to get in last night, I overheard the people behind us talking. They thought Manoel Felciano was some sort of Brazilian group. hehe

Hah, seriously? Well...I hope they still enjoyed themselves.

Yea, it's annoying when people mispronounce your name or misspell it, but that doesn't mean you have to change it!
I was with Em and Chica on the subway, and we ran into a girl who lived on my floor this past year. It turned out she was working the show (setting up, etc.) and she had to go introduce herself to Mano. The one thing she didn't feel comfortable with was pronouncing his name (at least she was aware of it and didn't want to mess it up), so we coached her.
I love his name.

No joke, Mandi. I bet they were surprised, to say the least.
I love his name too, it'd be a shame if he changed it.
I absolutely adore it. It's so...unique.

Woah...Haha

I got my Mano Chatterbox today!!!!!!
Just think, if he had changed his name he would never have been able to use in the Easter Bonnet Queen parody. Mano...just killed a man...
Btw: loved seeing Sweeney on R&K today. I too am a bit baffled by the song choice. I would have loved to see "Kiss Me."
I found out I'm probably coming tonigt!
::dances::
And, the people I was sitting with yesterday kept calling him Manolo...I was sad.
Not Mano related, but Sweeney related. Alex G. just was announced to play Valjean in the 6 month Broadway return of Les Mis. Yay!
Ok, back to Mano.

That's so exciting for Alex!! I'm glad that they seemed to think a little outside of the box for the Les Mis revival casting.
Whee! I'm vicariously excited about tonight.
Me too! I can't wait to hear about it.

Good for Alex!
I forgot that tonight is the Raul/Mano/Doyle thing. That's exciting!
And yes, I'm happy for Alex. Though, a little thrown off by Daphne.
