"along with some surprises"

What a memorable evening. The talent on that stage was incredible. The audience was fabulous, if I may say so. I also realized last night that Stephanie J. Block needs to put out a CD ASAP and she must include the song she did about Never Neverland. Applause to all who made this a night to remember. Thank You.
Also it was nice meeting Papalovesmambo...good laughs

I second that comment about Stephanie and that song Never Never Land was my favorite from last night. Scott Alan wrote that song and I still can't believe he is the same writer who wrote HOME with Shoshana Bean. I think I am officially gearing up to have a new favorite songwriter. Amazing job last night Jamie Rob and Craig.

Last night was a truly memorable evening. Every performance was a standout. Rob, Craig and Jamie - you did a superb job. I'm proud to be part of the Broadway World family.

AMAZING NIGHT! Will post details later, but Stephanie Block stole the show, with the hilarious Kim Cea in a close second!

AMAZING is right Benz!

Just a few more random thoughts as I awake from the crypt!
Mark Hartman was a wonder, the music flowed and he was in command at every moment, he is a peach!

The AMAZING Kerry Butler is the very model of a beautiful and caring and AMAZING human being, the kindness and humor she showed to ME (of all people!) was a very real FACT of the HUGE HEART that gal has...even when she was strangling me !

Andrea McArdle giving me the BEST birthday present ever...with that amazing voice and soul! Go Philly!

Meeting all the wonderful members of our "BWW" family, and having Voiceanth, Robbiej and JRB there was a gift!

The wonderful performers, all with TOWERING passion and UNLIMITED talent! Can I just say Susan Egan is from the heavens? WOW, do I love her..and most of all..

Rob and Craig, two passionate class acts who truly LOVE the world of stage..seeing their smiling faces as Toxic Audio brought down the house during the finale was THE highlight for me...well that and the AMAZING Marc Shaiman video, he stopped the show before it even started!

To EVERYONE who supported last night and who continue to give for this important cause, BRAVO!

Ok, I'm off to shave my tounge, speaking of, anybody see what Right Said Rick did with my gift bag?

I think we picked it apart and I tossed the Charlotte Church DVD onto one of the chairs.

Ah, yes. A wonderful night -- I was so pleased to be there! Loved meeting robbiej, jrb_actor, Eddie Varley, voiceanth, etoile, PB ENT., viciouscircle, Scott Logsdon, and so many others... the absolute highlight for me (and I'll NEVER forget it) was the soulful rendition of "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me", from a very classy Tony nominee, delivered from the confines of a bathroom stall at Fez.

I slept only a few hours, and headed home this morning. I'm dog-tired and thankful for one of the best 24-hour trips I've had in a very long time! BRING ON THE NEXT ONE!

Glad you're home safe and sound Marc. Your video was the perfect way to start the concert! Wow...what a night. So much talent. And so much energy, both on stage and in the audience. Twas grand, glorious and down right ducky to have so many of the BWW 'family' in one room. Kudos to everyone involved in putting on this wonderful event. Highlights for me were Stephanie J. Block singing the song about Neverland (brought a wee bit of a tear) and my favorite voice in New York, Max von Essen, singing "Only In New York"...Wowzers! Had a great time at the afterparty too. An evening not soon forgotten.

Glad you're back safe, Marc.

As for feeling a wee bit portly after your trip, I think (based on previous postings on this site)RightSaidRick might have just the regimen to whip you into shape.

His methods might be a bit "unorthodox" but I'll bet he'd guarantee results! LOL!

Howdy ya'll. I had a rip snortin dream the other night. As I slumbered under a bed of loosely packed peat moss (as I sometimes do) I dreamt the beautificent mother of all dreams. I was at a big hootenanny and ya'll was ther too! There was Voiceanth, JRB, Vicious, RobbieJ, PB, Etoile, even that Papalovesmambo. There was a big stage too and people were a hootin and hollerin all night. A man with expertly manicured and maintained eyebrows spoke to us and introduced all these fancy pants singin' types. Then Mr. V stepped onstage and sang his little heart oout and we all cried. The last thing that I recall was the giant floating head of Marc Shaiman as he and his gang of merry crossdressing elves sang a little ditty for us all. It was a big change from my usual dream of a hotdog chasing a donut through the Lincoln tunnel. If only it was true.

The raging question is:

DID DofB get enough water to drink? After all, she consumes 32 oz a day.
