BARE cast — Page 207

And Damon is conducting, yes?

I did not know that he was conducting???? Now I am seriously reconsidering going to this with my friend who just asked me the other day, and I just laughed it off, but of course I told her that Damon was involved with it and got the usual who? reponse, but anyway now I am rethinking the whole thing, but I don't know if I can stand a whole Clay Aiken concert, I barely know one song, but in the name of Bare it just may be worth it?

He's singing Christmas music! Unless he's written all new Christmas Carols you'll probably be able to follow along. LOL

Duh, I am soooo dense sometimes, Christmas tour, you would think I would check these things before posting I was just too excited to hear about Damon and Jesse. Well, anyway I guess this is good news, I did semi-like him on American Idol, for me he was the anti-Ruben!!

andyf - I am sure someone who as heard more of the music can give a more detailed explanation for you, but I am not sure if you saw this short description on Playbill.com, but this is what they wrote about it:

Easter Rising, according to a spokesperson, concerns a married couple with a teenage son. Upon learning that he is dying, the father takes his son on a road trip to meet his former college roommate. The musical concerns the love shared between the two college friends, the love the son has for his father, and the love between the mother and father. The musical is set in Texas, where Arden was raised.

Hope that helps a little.

Puppet sex it never a bad thing!!!

Okay, I must be mistaken. I could have sworn someone had mentioned that Damon was conducting on the road. I know he's doing the orchestrations (or at least was as of his last Sirius interview), I can't remember what gave me the impression he was going on the road. Maybe Michael mentioned it on Cast Party, was that it? Can't recall.

Thanks for looking into it AP! I sometimes think I'm making things up in my head because I want them to be true. Maybe Damon passed the gig onto Jesse, who knows. I'm just happy to see one or both involved on some level.

yes, Jesse is conducting. Damon is musical director.

musical directors are in charge of the musical aspects of the show through the creative process - just like the director and choreographer. the conductor actually directs the actors and musicians during performances. many times in theatre they are the same person...

Nope, I'm only sugar daddy to FG!

Really? I have yet to reap the rewards of this said "sugar daddiness" :)

I'm currently trying to picture John Hill as a "Rocker" and am alternating between remembering his demonstration of his backup vocals at Joe's Pub "creeps.... creeps..." and his Six Parks cowboy number. The mind reels!

Ahh...BFF, let us not forget the kick assedness of "Origin of Love." Thank you. Besides, hi, it's John. He can sing whatever the hell he wants! And Jenna. I can't wait to hear her sing a rock song. YAY! :) Where's Scott?

You and me both! SOMEONE around here who shall remain nameless tends to keep me up on the phone.......

*stares left and right. Whistles*

apgal and ME!!!!!!! And on the phone as I type buying 7 & 9 oclock tickets to EASTER RISING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome. Glad to see we won't be the only lunatics...umm fans there! :)

MOG is going to the gym to do her asian fighting thing and I am sitting here doing my homosexual thing (YAY CDs).

Actually urban rebounding (AWESOME) and umm...after what you told me last night, I can only imagine what the "homosexual thing" you are describing is. O_O

*hopes Jess can come*

Me too! :)

Why am I hearing the twilight zone music in my head? I'm crossing my fingers this is true! Though goodness only knows where I'd actually get to see her do the role. Toronto in March? Brrrrr...

Well we did talk about heading up there for other reasons...

...or just throw in the puppet sex for the sake of that hot puppet lovin'.

Well look who decided to pop into the Bare thread. The mysterious AndyF. So, which show are you going to? See, I asked! :)

Should we buy a package of 2Xist to throw at Jesse's head while he's playing?

Why don't we just wear it on our own heads and call it a day! :) I keed, I keed. I LOVE the Clay more than I ever should admit on a public forum... :)

Or as I like to call it, "the guy with the stick thingy" though I hear that's not quite the technical term.

I just found it, in the Cast Party interview, Michael does say that Damon will be conducting and orchestrating the Clay Aiken Tour

Thank God you looked it up or it would have driven Trisky crazy!

Besides, it'll be neat to be there when a big, hyped-up tour opens.

Blue, I think you'll really like it actually.

Okay, me go splat now.

Staring at Jesse's backside and screaming "We love Jesse" works...... LOL.

"Vargas Is The Natural Viagra"!

LOL.....that was too funny for words. My boss agreed, since he came out to see why I was laughing so hard. Damn Trisky and her humor getting me in trouble at work But thanks for the laugh. It is a nice change from the death glare I had tattooed on my face

Okay guys, word from Damon this morning -- and I was told to post -- is that he is not musical directing Clay's tour.
