I remember hearing rumors of him joining the tour about a year ago. Did he turn it down or was it just a rumor?
I think he'd be good.

Posted: 12/15/06 at 9:34amI don't think this one is pointless. It's a simple question.

Not just that. I've heard his voice, seen the way he acts, and he looks the part.
It's a simple question! Wasn't he considering it?

Posted: 12/15/06 at 11:59amHe does look the part. But not just because he's bald. Victor Garber looked the part and he shaved his head! But Bruce can also sing and act the part!

Posted: 12/15/06 at 12:27pmRAYMOND BURR!!!!!!!!!! (he died choking with laughter). Do YOU want to push Raymond Burr around in a wheelchair? Oh sure, it was fine when he was Ironsides, ("Maaaaaarrrkk!") but in the end, he outgirthed (and not in a good way) Marlon Brando.
