OK, class...

The letter B which starts both Bruce and Broadway does not mean the two belong together.

LOL.

Yours for a better Broadway!

However, it doesn’t mean they don't either. If they can do an ABBA musical, you never know what may be coming in a few years.

Too True
It could be anything
Or anyone
Even Bruce doing Badlands

Erik. I never understood one word sung, nor barely understood the words spoken in Hedwig. Sorry, but being untelligible doesn't count in the theatre.

Yours for an enunciating Broadway!

I was surprised to see the BRUCE topic. Please know the combination of Springsteen and Broadway is not mutually exclusive. I've been a Bruce fan for many years, but my Broadway addiction predates the Boss. Over the past 2 years since 9/11 and other personal circumstances, Bruce and the E Street Band's Rising CD captured me and carried me back to his other works. I've been in the "Pit" for 3 of his shows this year and it has been an experience of comraderie and celebration that I won't forget.

My wife and I will be coming to NYC for Labor Day to renew our love affair with Broadway and see Bruce in Jersey for the first time. We've planned a return visit for RENT Friday night, left Sat. open for other decisions on a new show, and are seeing The Producers for the Sunday matinee. Then it's off to the Port Authority Bus to catch Bruce in the Meadowlands Sunday night for his last Giants Stadium performance.

We're North Carolinians who cherish our excursions to the Big Apple. We'll look forward to our favorite dining spots and the feel of Manhattan as we walk forever during the weekend.

Don't discount the multitude of Broadway fans that love the theatre, but also love the culture, history, music scene, sports events and other draws of New York. We can't wait to be back and loved seeing Springsteen as a topic of the Board. It's all great and should be celebrated.

Don't forget the incredible tribute Bruce always give to NYC, Jersey and especially the Urban Ministry and those lost in 9/11.

Oh, for Pete's sake, I read this whole thread thinking it was going to be about BRUCE VILANCH!! Has the tour started yet? Who is Bruce Stringsteen?




BTW this is my 200th post!!

And I had hoped it was about my cultural hero, Bruce "Marvin on The Partridge Family" Kimmel.

Just curious, Voiceanth. Are you planning on nursing this woman in the picture with you? It's really quite disconcerting.

Yes I would like to hear those detailed reasons

Yay for XTina and Juju. believe it or not, those of you who have never seen either of them live, they are not the sterotypical 'popstars'. they can actaually sing -- and sing well.

I love you Namo!

BdwyGuy,

Now that is now what Namo said/guffawed. I, myself, happen to like a song or two by both Ms. Aguilera and Mr. Timberlake. I like other popular artists more...but whatever.

I would like to point out (and please note this is not a slam against what you said bdwyguy) that if people have to add the caveat 'these are not your stereotypical pop stars...they can sing'...well, the state of pop music is pretty sad.

Which is why I'll pop in my three different recordings of NINE and play them on shuffle! Call be small-minded, call me a theatre snob, but to me, that's heaven, baby!

And B R U C E never did anything for this Jersey boy.

You know what...I'm sorry...I should amend what I said.

B R U C E's music doesn't do much for this Jersey boy (I respect his talent...just not my cup of tea).

HOWEVER, B R U C E circa Born in the USA coulda pounded me seven ways to Sunday.
