Why would 'Leon' leave in December - he did not start at the same time as Liam or George - he started a couple of weeks ago. His contract is for the same period as the other boys - maybe slightly less.

After deciphering (spelling might be off) what you wrote, I have to say that you must realise that as long as no person swears or types rude or threatening comments, there is not problem with saying that you disliked certain aspects of the Musical such as one of 'Billys'. This should be a place where those people who liked everything and those who disliked parts of the musical, have their say.

For sure Liam Mower before he leaves. He is still the best of the best.
Hear hear LM
Also crystal blue ur message made no sense lol
To the lady going to the show askin which Billy to try to see well the answer is LIAM LIAM LIAM LIAM LIAM if u can only go once then missing Liam would be a big loss
I can understand it. It's certainly a lot easier to read than when everything is in capital letters.
All three boys are amazing and to say you should see one over another is nonsensical. Go there for whichever is showing that night and enjoy it, I know you will. Liam is superb, especially for the ballet sequences. George is amazing, has superb acting talent and you can feel the emotion of the part through his portrayal especially during the tap sequence of the "Angry Dance". Leon I only saw on his first night but his ballet, tap and voice are all first rate.
To sum up, just go there and enjoy it.

Why still all these arguments about who is best. Ok we all have our favourites, and we are all entitled to our own opinion, but at the end of the day, George, James, Leon, and Liam have all got on stage in the west end after beating thousands of people, so they are all naturally amazing. Lets not discuss who is best, but how tallented they all are. My favourite is Leon, but i've seen james and he was superb, and from clips i have seen, so are george and Liam. Stop putting everyone down, it is a fantastic show, and we should celebrate that fact, not argue about tiny details. Anyone agree with me?

I would like to mention how good the other people on the stage are as well. Lets not forget the adult cast, the Debbies, the ballet girls, the tall and small boys, they all go to make a great show. (The Billy's and Michaels it goes without saying are outstanding. All of them).

Hi All,
Well I've been away for a few days visitng family in Newcastle, and have only just caught up with all of the posts!
Whilst it has been great to catch up with all the news, I am somewhat dissapointed that some of the posts have become somewhat inflamitory and personal in content. This is a great board, and one where everybody is welcome to share and express their views and opinions on the show. Lets' keep it that way please!
Electricity - I fully support the 3 cast album campaign and have updated my signature accordingly.
For those of you who have joined in with the OCR campaign I would just like to say thank you. The more we get, the better. Lets hope the message will get to the relevant members of the production team.
On another note... only a few more posts to go on this thread until we reach the 1000 mark!
Just got tickets for the 2:30 matinee on Thursday, December 29!

I would be nice to have 3 recordings of the original Billys but let's be realistic. Tell me which record company is going to produce 3 different recordings of the same show?
It would be more realistic to have one recording with a few bonus tracks or a double album with the second disc being the other two Billys to the one on the first CD.
Or even better still, one recording with all three doing different items, their best ones obviously.
Perhaps, if the first disc is successful, a special edition CD might be produced to include all three Billys - remember Les Miz?

Point taken "Maestro" and indeed it would seem almost impossible to think that three recordings of the same show would be produced.
However, Billy is rather unique in as far as very reliable sources have confirmed that 3 recordings have been made with each of the original 3 Billy's.
As for Les Mis, yes who could forget that show - 20 years young on Saturday and still going strong!

There is a very simple way that the producers of the show could satisfy all us fans on the cast recording front - release the CD that they want to release and then offer the other versions as digital downloads on the official website for a small charge per track, like Napster or iTunes.
This seems like the most sensible option to me, but will they think of it?
Having said that, if 3 different CDs were released, I'd still buy them all!
gaaah... i just sold my billy tickets *sobs in a corner*
by the way, which of the boys says he wants to be an actor on the little film on the site?

I haven't posted on the site for a while as sadly it seems to have turned into a slanging match between fans,and to be honest it not all been one way. While i like 99% of the board disagree with LM and MF reading back over their last few posts i don't think there is anything particually offensive and no worse than what's being aimed back at them(actually i think it's probably the same person but that's just my guess).
As for this stupid argument about who is best the plain truth is all 3 are amazing,sadly i've not seen Leon yet but i'm told he is also amazing. So whoever you see then trust me you are in for a fantastic show.
I would also like to throw my weight behind the 3 cd campaign,we all know Elton John likes to release numerous versions of his cds so maybe,heres hoping anyway!
Regards Les Mis,fully agree,along with BE Les Mis is my all time favourite show. Can't wait for Saturdays birthday celebrations,i'm going to both shows.

Just like to let you know that I have a friend you is in the cast for this special night of Les Miz but even he couldn't get tickets.
By the way, LM and your other anti James friend, leave well alone. I have read far too much from you about who you prefer. This is grossly unprofessional and not suitable for this type of board. If you two wish to be theatre critics apply to the editor of any gutter press in this country. Got it?
I don't have anything to contribute, just wanted to be the 1000th post :)
