hmm very interesting. I know about Carly because Scott wrote about it in his bio..I know a girl who did MNNV was filling on for Carly.

EDIT: Scott posted on his blog... UPDATE: I am excited to not only introduce the audience to Sarah Davis, but to Natalie Weiss who will be singing Say Goodbye at the concert on Monday. I love 'New Voices' and I am excited to show off some new talent on Monday. See you then.

It says nothing about Eden. He said he still needed someone to sing Say Goodbye so I am guessing that what Natalie is doing.

No, Eden just backed out today, I think, it's on Natalie's facebook.

The world is sick ...

So, everyone is sick. Sniffling, coughing, you name it, you can hear it as you pass people on the street. Sadly, as reported on my blog yesterday, Carly Jibson had to pull out of the concert. Well, today, sadly, Eden Espinosa had to do the same. She is a trooper and was trying so hard to fight her cold, but, it just wasn't meant to be. Thankfully, I gave Natalie Weiss the notice at 6am this morning that Eden may not be able to make it, and she has now stepped up to the plate and learned THREE new songs in two days (two of them, in less then 12 hours). Talk about dedication. In addition, we have a special surprise performer who has been kind enough to help out and sing 'Magic' tonight. Yes, you are loosing one Elphaba, but you are gaining another ... see you all tonight ... xoxo -SA

My guess Julia Murney.

I'm pissed that I can't be there tonight. I'm still hoping for a miracle, but I doubt that. That sucks that Eden couldnt be there.

^ If your guess is right, and it's Julia, I'd be really mad that I can't be there. Although my guess is Lisa Brescia, who is also amazing.

What a WONDERFUL Birdland tonight! I am SO happy for Scott! He really deserves so much. Every song sung was amazing but the stand outs for me were Stephanie J. Block singing Never Neverland, Lisa Brescia singing Magic and Natalie Weiss who was a last minute replacement but completely blew me away with I'm A Star and one of my very favorites Say Goodbye!

All the talent on the stage was just phenomenal! Shoshana, Liz Callaway, Danny Calvert! All just AMAZING! I was so glad that I had the opportunity to be part of such a night! Congrats Scott!
