Senility IS a horrible thing. I can't believe I got the Flo Ballard thing wrong.

Amazing thread. Thanks for the correction Mr. Shaiman. Can't wait to see what you have come up with for tomorrow night! Updated On: 2/15/14 at 01:58 AM
reminder-set your DVR's to go PAST 11pm tonight for the TONYS. Would hate for you to miss the end.
Oh My God..... VoiceAnth.... how could I forget....... NAMO! Dolly! TD! wow. My loves! I haven't made a post in foreeever.
It better be good Mr. Shaiman! I joke...
11pm? You mean 6/7am, right?
Timezones suck. Marc, I'm trusting you to make my sleepless day at work tomorrow worthwhile.
well, I may be a bit outside of this most elite group...but I too was there at the first SO when the maiden voyage of "Pick A Little" was thrown up (pun intended) on the big screen at Joe's Pub. The hysteria was deaffening. (Namo, I know you were incognito, as usual, dearie).
Dolly had a broken ankle at the time. I ran him over with his stolen car, rumor had it. Anthony was oh, so there as well. Right Said Rick and Eddie were ...wee ones back then.
I am planning a nappy so as not to miss the end of the Tonys. Wouldn't miss another Shaiman premiere for all the mud in Margate, NJ. Have fun at the tony's y'all.
Love,
Pati b
Who's about to lose her firstborn tonight to Dallas Texas, permenately!

Ah PatiB! This thread really IS the good old days.
And really, we can salute Marc Shaiman while referencing all the usual stuff til the bovines come home, but until you've aspirated soy milk while reading his riff on La Chiausa, can you really say you have lived?
Oh, Marc, this is better than the rest of the show put together!
YES Mr Shaiman ( tho I'm sure you have better things to do than check this thread) Thank You SO much. A real Tony highpoint!

The finale and HAIR covered a multitude of sins. And what a multitude it was.
Dear Marc,
That was AMAZING!
Thanks!!!
Angela and Poison - funniest moment of the night - and most appopriate - courtesy of the divine Mr. Shaiman.

I thought I smelled the old days. The musky, yet sticky sweet smell of BWW04. DAME, Namo, Pal, Pati B... it's almost intoxicating enough to make me forget the dead hooker in my trunk.

Bravo Mr. Shaiman. That closing number was easily the highlight of the evening.
You even brought ckeaton back, Mr. Shaiman.
Who's next? Zola Q. LaPlaya?

Jesus Christ, ckeaton! A toast to the dead and forgotten: To VoiceAnth!
Congrats Marc. Do you know if the soundboard idiot is being ran out of town?

Loved it. Was it all prewritten or did you continue writing as winners were announced? If so, you hedged your bets nicely :).
And the best of luck w a host to could play it to the 3rd balcony of Radio City Music Hall. A perfect marriage of talents!
