GLORY DAYS reviews — Page 8

Ahh ok, then Jane2 i agree with you 100 percent

Jane2 - Your process is different and that's fine. As for me, I have often enjoyed shows that were unpopular (I loved Bombay Dreams), but not everyone can afford to see all the shows they might not be inclined to see for whatever reason. And that's ok, too. If I listen to song clips of Glory Days and I don't really care for the music and I hate the lyrics, it would be even more ridiculous to spend my time and money on the Broadway production passing up the chance to see the shows that I actually want to see. We all have to make choices and we all have the freedom to make them how we see fit. It's not about "seeing art for myself", but about doing the research to make an educated choice when options are limited. Otherwise, there would be no such thing as "reviews" or "critics". They would simply cease to exist.

I am referring to those who form an OPINION of a show - mentioning that it is no good, or whatever-WITHOUT seeing it. That is absurd.

Well, on that we completely agree. If they have read the script or heard the score, they can have opinion on those, but they cannot speak of the show itself without having seen it. That is usually a result of immaturity. There are definitely shows which did not impress me when listening to the CD, but when seeing the actual show, I was floored (Billy Elliott) and those which I loved listening to the score, but was hugely disappointed when viewing the show live (Kiss of the Spider Woman). And then there are those of which I was skeptical, but decided to see based on popular opinion and ended up not understanding why it was so highly revered (Spring Awakening). You never know, so you have to make your best guess.

Remind me again -- what's the rush policy on this show?

Rush policy when I went was $26.50 when the box office opens, I was front row on the floor

....literally.

More like "One luke warm charcoal brick"

At least Andrew Call can go back to his OTHER job:

(from Playbill)
Andrew C. Call ... made his Broadway bow, however briefly, in High Fidelity and is technically on a three-month leave of absence from Cry-Baby where he stands by for title player James Snyder.
