Went back and researched when I saw this thread. My first post was June 27, 2004(guess I lurked for over a month) The thread was BWW Anonymous started by Flowery Friend. It was fun to go back and read who posted on that thread and see the people who are still around. Two years have gone by and I am still addicted to Broadway and BWW!

~FloweryFriend~ is missed around here. Too bad she's off building a career on the stage, and she can't be on the site as much any more.

Aside from the Subject Grammar, fun thread. Thanks! :)

Oh, and Fiction Writer, stop trying to make 'fetch' happen.


My first post, sincere and self-aware. LOL.

yes, "fetch" is so not going anywhere. As to people who post a lot having "too much time on their hands".......in your various incarnations you have posted a ton, so this is a pot/kettle issue

Mine was wordy, and I was up on a soap box about something.

I know that's a SHOCK to most of you.

It was my "eloquent" response to dear old roquat, who was dissing a theatre I had worked at years ago.

Mine was about being dissapointed by HAIRSPRAY.

I was bitching that someone had taken my old Broadway.com user name (VelmaKelly) lol

Eureka! I have found it!

(I find it hysterical that this was my first post, three years ago...and I said nearly the exact same thing just the other week!)

Yes, she's got a great voice, but let's not overpraise her. While it is true that she can blow curtains back from two miles hence, she's not exactly a master of subtlety (she seems to be saying "Look how loud/high/loud/high/loud I can sing" as opposed to "look how beautiful this song is and what the composer is trying to say and how artistically I'm interpreting it"), the material she chooses to sing is, to put it diplomatically...a bit on the trite side (with notable exceptions), and, belting range goddess though she may be, she will never be remembered for her brilliant acting.

As to her overwhelming niceness and gentle personality, that is certainly not a general consensus, as can be attested to by those who have worked with her. (Then again, nobody is nice all the time, we're all human, even Linda Eder.)

That said...I'm a huge fan nonetheless, and I'd rather hear her version of "I, Don Quixote" than any man's, any day. :)

That's pretty fetching...er, fetch...um...good heavens, I'm not using it right, am I?

Yes I do. It was idiotic, because of spelling. If you want to veiw it search "wicked and rent is killing" I was so imbaresed, but it wasn't a big deal.

I am pretty sure that my first post was addressed to Art2 and his view of Rent . . .
