Not to upstage the other thread, given that most posters here are from North America, where are the other members of the Broadwayworld family from? What other countries/cities are represented?

Melbourne, Australia here!

What? I'm the only one here from somewhere other than the U.S.?

I really want to post on your thread, but I'm not eligible.

Hey, alterego, I'm a U.S. boy, but I have a question:

I've heard that Melbourne is pronounced "Melbin". Is this true?

I'm from Canada, but that's still part of North America.

Wanna Be a Foster - sort of, the 'bourne' part isn't emphasized as much as you would expect, most (here) would pronounce it as Melburn. Same with Brisbane, it isn't pronounced as Bris- bane but Brisbun. Updated On: 5/26/06 at 11:03 PM

Is that it? Come one there are have to be a few more non-Americans...

There are definitely more Aussies, but they're all snug in their beds right now.

Or they should be.

We should totally start our very own "GERMANS ONLY" thread...

[GuyfromGermany]

Posted: 5/27/06 at 5:13am

Waaahaha, I just wanted to suggest that myself *g*

The damn Elisabeth musical.

But let's not get into German musicals, that's far too depressing. And please keep it English, it would be unpolite otherwise.

Nice to meet you all from germany!
Anybody interested in a thread we can exchange why we are here and who we are?

@ Franklin: We could do it in english, if you like

[alterego]

Posted: 5/27/06 at 9:46am

And China! Wow.

[GuyfromGermany]

Posted: 5/27/06 at 10:35am

Yes, we should definitely make a thread like this!

But maybe we shouldn't call it "Germans Only"... I can already hear people scream "NAZIS!" *g*

I have never seen a German musical, but I was sent the song "Gold von den Sternen", and it must have some of the dumbest lyrics I have ever heard...

Nazis!!!



I'm from boring old dull America. My father's parents were from Russia. That's the best I can do.

I feel like singing "It's a Small World" now!

*winces at the thought*
