It was a benefit called The 24 Hour Plays on Broadway; just one night only, a series of 10 minute plays.

Late October of last year.

Thanks, I would of love to have seen it. It is so hard when you have to travel to decide wich things you want to attend. Well want is a strong word but you know what I mean everything seems so important but I would go broke. Of course the Studder's benifiet I decide to see this I miss, go figure, atleast it was for charity!

They had student rush, thankfully. That was the only way I was able to afford it!

He should be Fiyero in that LA production of Wicked!

Yeah the student thing has saved me a million times, especially in the Aida days. I fear that he is going to do something new out in LA and I will want to go sooo badly.

Let me just say now that me and friends have been trieng to get out to CA for two years now so if it happens to happen when Adam related things are happening then so be it! Who am I to interfear with fate? I crack me up!

Back to the topic from before though, I always assumed that the decision to move west was more because of Cybeles carreer, she is doing great out there maybe its her turn to shine for a while.

eh, not that its any if my buisness, its not like I sit around and think about it, I just always assumed that.

So after all of Ticketmaster's charges, it's costing 90 bucks for me and Mr. TimeSuckage to attend this shindig. You better rock, Pretty Boy.

Emcee, get your butt on a plane! You can't miss this.

What, besides promoting her book, is Cybele doing out here?

[mesmerized24601]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 4:01pm

I suppose it's all book promoting related but she has expressed that bieng out there has given her ideas and oppertunities.

For those of you in the LA area who don't have tickets yet, I recommend you go to the box office and get your tix. I went to the theatre during my lunch and picked up four tickets (second row right side)and saved $28.00 in Ticketmaster fees. I also sent out an e-mail to all my local friends (Rent fans or not) to encourage them to check out the show. Hell, $35.00 a ticket is cheap by today's ridiculous standards. Hopefully, the word will get out and "pretty boy" will fill the place.

Hah, Time Suckage, someone else has already asked me if I'll be there, and I posted a bit of an unncessarily long rant, but... since it's beginning, I might as well say very simply to any who might ask or assume that... unfortunately, flying out there to see him is outlandish, even to me, for a lot of reasons, not the least of which that I simply hate planes, and will not fly for more than 3 hours without sedatives. But to take a six hour trip, to another time zone to see something that I've seen a bunch of times before is simply unjustifiable and unncessary. Somewhere a line needs to be drawn, and limitations need to be set. As much as I would like to see him, it's simply not possible, nor is it reasonably logical. I couldn't in good conscience.

So, I'll sit things out for now and hear about them from people who get to go, hoping that he comes home eventually. You all on the West Coast had better tell me all about it; I'm glad there are people on the board who will be there; send him our love!

I also sent out an e-mail to all my local friends (Rent fans or not) to encourage them to check out the show. Hell, $35.00 a ticket is cheap by today's ridiculous standards. Hopefully, the word will get out and "pretty boy" will fill the place.

That's great! Nice job. Knowing you did that put a smile on my face. More than I want to be able to see him perform myself, I want success for him. About how big is the theater?

Cybele's a playwright, and I believe she wants to try to open up opportunities to write for TV.

Awww man...I want to go to that so badly! Ticketmaster's offering really good seats, too! Damnit...

I can't go because I'll be in Vegas for the 27th through the 30th! DAMNIT.

[JarNerdAV]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 4:28pm

I'm not sure how big the Brentwood is. They don't say on their website. Here is a link to the seating chart. I didn't have time to include count the seats.

He could totally fill that.

[TimeSuckage]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 5:14pm

I hear you, Emcee. Didn't mean to rub your nose in it or anything. I'm sure it's different when you have seen him perform a lot in NYC. I've only seen him do his own material once cuz I'm out West, so this is a big deal for me.

JarNerdAV, if I could've gotten to the box office, believe me, I would have. Ticketmaster is so evil.

Has anyone received an email from Sh-K-Boom advertising this show? I have not, and I get a lot of info emails from them about other stuff. I'm just curious what their role is in promoting this gig.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 5:58pm

Oh, no, it's okay. I just sort of want to clear it up before half the board asks me if I'm flying out West; on one hand, people have asked and I'm like "are you crazy?" but I guess on the other, I *appear* crazy enough to do it. And, I mean, I'm bummed out, but... I've had my share -- for six years.

I hope everyone who goes has a great time! He puts on quite a show. You guys are in for a treat.

Nothing from Sh-k-Boom for me, either. I don't think they're doing his booking anymore, but I'd think they'd still publicize his appearances...

[JarNerdAV]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 6:28pm

Emcee: It's not so crazy, but probably not cost effective. Father's day weekend, for a surprise I flew my partner and myself out to New York for two days to see History Boys, Threepenny Opera, Three Days of Rain and Broadway Bares. I had two Jet Blue passes that were supposed to be for our annual November trip, but I have time to find a deal for November--so it was pretty cost effective. The clincher was that I one two backstage passes to go meet Cyndi Lauper in her dressing room. What a crazy, whirlwind weekend it was. Expensive, but worth it. Coming to LA for just once concert probably wouldn't be worth the trip for you.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 6:32pm

Well, lots of people come to New York for vacation; but, exactly -- it's more than a bit silly to fly across the country for *one* concert. There are very few people I'd consider getting on a plane to see perform; I flew to Cincinnati to see Company, and while kind of crazy, that was a bit more justifiable in that it was something totally new, and at that point, going there was the only way to see it (and it was a short flight!). I've seen Adam play a lot of concerts, so travelling that far for one just isn't logically worth it.

Does the theater allow photography?

[JarNerdAV]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 6:34pm

I don't know if the Brentwood allows photographs. Probably not, but I'll have it in my pocket just in case. Hm...I've never stage doored in LA. Never even occured to me to try.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 6:36pm

You should try. He's very friendly!

[WickedOne2]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 7:31pm

My fiance just picked up our tickets. First row!!!! I am beyond excited. I've met Adam before at an event and he was so nice.

[DancNdaMoonlite]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 7:34pm

I'm 2nd row.

I'm so excited. I can't sit still.

[GodIHopeIGetIt]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 7:38pm

I am going to LA on the 30th.
Hate you all...

Anyway, is this the only concert-type... well, anything he has scheduled out there? As much as I'm scared of some of the arrangements he's had for songs on his college tours, I want to see him live again.

[luvtheEmcee]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 7:39pm

As of now, it's the only date that's been released at all.

[GodIHopeIGetIt]

Posted: 7/7/06 at 7:47pm

At least he's keeping up on that. I have a bad feeling that I'm going to turn on the TV and see him in a geico commercial.
