Caroline, or Change is back! — Page 2

findingnamo, nice attempt, but sorry. The point WAS that's why I couldn't really embrace the show was because the style of it wasn't for me. I didn't say the style didn't work for me and that's why it didn't work on broadway - learn how to read. even though I know you were being an ass and referring to what i said before, and next you're probably going to say that you were just being sarcastic. Funny. REally - you're terribly clever. Why don't you suck my cock?

I tried to type that they automatically turned them into *'s. It would have been far more effective.

No it wouldn't have been. Person named after a cat in the world's worst musical: please join RodneyK, Westopher, TRUEBWFan and the late EricMDB at the kiddie's table for cake, pie and ice cream.

Jose, I didn't know you turned your nose up at Caroline. Kidding.

Perhaps if you knew this history of why I chose this name, you wouldn't make such comments. Do you have a learning disability?

and ANYWAY, Tonya's performance at the Tony's wasn't the best - but it was better than Idina shrieking ungodly notes that were rediculously off key - and she took the tony. Tonya's performance in the show is one of the best things I've ever seen in all my years of theatregoing - it's up there with Antonio in NINE, Bernadette in GYPSY, Sally Field in THE GOAT, etc. etc. etc. She's remarkable. The fact that Idina won STILL baffles me.

What's a prig?

---

That's my point. OBVIOUSLY people care what I think if i've gotten nasty messages back. I'm still DYING to know what a prig is.

---

The red is "United States of Canada" and the green is "Jesusland."

---

It's absolutely worth it. I wish I had an opportunity to see it one more time. Please go and enjoy.

Yes it's worth it. The recording, obviously, is only half the picture. And the only posts that are wastes are mustystrap's.

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who have contributed to this thread. This was the best source of a laugh I've had all day.

BT11, I have no doubt your well wishes will reach those to whom you've sent them. I don't see anything wasted is sending good thoughts to a *stylized* and unique show. The fact at it was stylized and unique was reason enough for me to enjoy and continue savoring this show.

Of course what do I know "...in all my years of theatre going - it's up there with Antonio in NINE, Bernadette in GYPSY, Sally Field in THE GOAT, etc. etc. etc..." My theater going only extends back decades as oppose to the past year and a half. I may not have enough shows under my belt to compare.

But back to the post in the thread. Love the self-deprecation from José, love the exchanges from Namo, and the comments from munkustrap...priceless, simply priceless. You must have made you mother so proud.

Nice jab at my post above - but I was only citing 3 performances - the 3 that came to my mind that second I didn't sit there and ponder over it. Nice try.

And to FindingNamo - despite the recent bitching between us, I can't help but love your icon. It's so true.

heheh you guys are funny. I loooooovee this show. Toniya, if your reading this...i love you.

munk - the definition of prig (as intended by its use here) - one who offends or irritates by observance of proprieties (as of speech or manners) in a pointed manner or to an obnoxious degree. Frankly, I'm surprised you're not familiar with this term - at least the irritable and obnoxious parts.

And we're going to see Caroline here in LA in late December. I'm curious what all the fuss has been about.
