Posted: 6/1/08 at 2:19amWhat a waste of airtime CIRLCE OF LIFE is. We could've gotten numbers from LM and YF instead; shows that are ironically enough the two biggest draws for CBS's ratings this year most likely. Or maybe a medley? Anything but the same exact number they did 10 years ago.

Posted: 6/2/08 at 6:29am...so we still don't know any of the eight regular performances for certain?

Posted: 6/2/08 at 4:50pmHave any of you seen the TONY pool at www.theproducersperspective.com? They're giving away a free I phone. Looks pretty cool!

Oh dearie me, it's a sock puppet.
Why are all of your posts about either that Tony pool or "didhelikeit.com", Mikey?

Posted: 6/2/08 at 5:12pmOk I thought that was a cool offer so perhaps I got overzealous. Didn't mean to be a sock puppet

Posted: 6/2/08 at 5:15pmStill Think Gypsy should do the Strip, or gotta have a gimmick
#64re: 2008 Tony Awards: Performance List
Posted: 6/2/08 at 5:38pmwell i think we can all safely say that "gotta get a gimmick" is probobly not getting performed, whereas the nominated musicals usually try to feature at least one nominated performer. (a notable acception was the kiss me kate revival that performer "too darn hot" instead of anything showcasing their nominees.

Posted: 6/4/08 at 1:07pmIn my opinion, Gypsy should do "Together, Whereever we Go", as all 3 of the nominated stars would get to perform, however I hope they do "Everything's Coming Up Roses" or "Rose's Turn".
#68re: 2008 Tony Awards: Performance List
Posted: 6/4/08 at 2:30pmI found out my ticket... there is one left. I didn't get it because I wanted to go with someone... too bad, I wish I could have seen the Lion King and Rent Original and the Tony's in general... if anyone is giving up 2 tickets, please please let me know! Even thought I doubt it haha

Posted: 6/4/08 at 2:39pmI would love for GYPSY to do "Together". It's a really fun number that shows off all three principals really well.

This thread is so pointless. It's so annoying opening it everyday and still seeing TBA.
GYPSY should do 'Everything's Coming Up Roses' it features all 3 leads. And showcases Patti. They WILL want to show showcase Patti.

"GYPSY should do 'Everything's Coming Up Roses' it features all 3 leads. And showcases Patti. They WILL want to show showcase Patti."
Though that would be phenomenal I would like them to see them do Together because Laura and Boyd don't do anything in Everything's Coming Up Roses except stand there. This is by far the strongest Rose, Louise, and Herbie in history so i think since they all have a chance at winning a tony they should do a number that will showcase their talents. I have always hated when someone wins a tony and they are not mainly featured in the tony performance.

I honestly doubt they will do TOGETHER. It does NOT showcase Patti.
'Everything's coming up' is a show-stopping moment for Patti. At least Boyd and Laura can be featured in it. Trust me, Patti is the selling point of this show and they WILL want to showcase her.
