I am so excited for tomorrow night! I've never heard the NY Philharmonic live and I can't think of a more exciting introduction to them.
Also, happy graduation, Em! :)

"Tonight" (Chenoweth and Esparza)

Posted: 5/20/08 at 10:23amHey, I'd love to meet any of the BWWers coming tonight. Is there a landmark in Avery Fisher Hall where people can stop to say hi?

I haven't been there in ages, so I don't know
The big picture of Raul? lol. But Emcee says there are many...
I'm so bummed about the weather - now I can't wear my summery dress tonight. This is what happened at my college graduation, too.
I'm particularly excited for tonight because the date is very near my Company anniversary - the first time I saw the show. It seems like yesterday.

Posted: 5/20/08 at 3:17pmTink, I'm taking the 5 o'clock train so depending on subway rush hour traffic, I should be in the vicinity around 6:30ish, if all goes well..

Posted: 5/20/08 at 3:20pmMC - cool, text or call me when you are in. I should be getting in around 5ish. Then need to kill time, which I usually don't mind except the rain...ugh, lol. But could be worse I guess.

They had signs up along the walls that are up because of the construction.
This weather blows.
Thank you all for the graduation wishes!!

Awww....
Comparing this to the pic from the Tony luncheon last week, it seems clear that Raúl should never be allowed near hair gel again. If anyone sees him trying to use it, tase him! That'll learn ya.

Raúl clearly reads his love thread. And listens to us

So it was good, eh?
Glad you had a wonderful time.
I wish I could have been there...but I started my job in Ogunquit today.

That was so much fun! So excellent! "Soliloquy" and "Tonight" are two of my most favorite things of all time, so I am just blown away by it all. I'm really glad to have met some of you tonight, too. It's nice to be able to put faces to posts. :)
I'll put up a couple of my non-back-of-the-head photos later.

Posted: 5/20/08 at 11:19pmIt was good to meet you, too, spidey. I'm sorry I was a little out of it... it's been a stressful day!

A lovely time was had by all. Kristin & Raul were adorable! Loved "Anything I can do...", esp. Raul's little skip step at the end.
Great seeing everyone, hope you had fun at the stagedoor!

Aww, I tried to find some of you tonight, but considering that the only person I'd recognize would've been Emcee, That made the search a little like finding a needle in a haystack.
Concert was AMAZING though, I wish I could've bottled "Soliloquy" and kept it forever.
Btw, I was sitting house left, second tier, rear box. Anybody sitting nearby?

Congratulations, Em!
And yes, it was a great show. Esparza and Chenoweth are cavity-inducingly cute together.

"Anything You Can Do" has been on my wishlist for a long, long time. What a lovely surprise!
