Everyone be sure to check your PM's.
And I agree with Cat, I want the opening message Liz!
Panda, you could always send it to me.
Um...I'm not sure If I have more you're interested in. You'd have to tell me.
Title option: Greg Jbara Love Thread Part 5: Keeping the love for our true Prance alive.
I did the same thing, Ali, when I listened to the audio of Greg's last.
And as far as I know Norbert will only be in the first 6 stops of the tour.
Thanks for the heads up Mamie, though I don't have XM radio. But for whoever can listen, enjoy.
Getting ready to go mini-golfing. It poured all day yesterday so hopefully it holds off today till we're done.
Aw, I'm glad people like the title I came up with.
Edit: I totally dominated at mini-golf today.
Barrett Foa is discustingly adorable. I'm on the phone today with a friend and my mom hands me a large envalope. I look at the return address and see that it was from 'Circle in the Square'. It didn't click that it would be anything from someone at Spelling Bee, but when I open it there's a signed headshot. Of Barrett Foa. I freaked. lol
He was so cute. He sent a signed headshot to my friend Nicky wishing him a happy birthday. He also sent me back the sign I sent him with 'Thanks for being such a big fan - Barrett Foa'. (again for my friend Nicky) And the last thing I got-and I didn't even notice till after the fact-was a 1/2 page, hand written note to me. It was too cute because first thing he did was appologize for it being almost a year late. lol
When he left Avenue Q I pretty much gave up hope that I'd get anything back but seeing that he mailed it from Spelling Bee was pretty cool.
Anyways, today was way to hot out.
And to keep this somewhat on-topic. I love Greg Jbara.
haha. He did the same to my letter in addition to the note he sent. Seams as though he went through all his old mail and did a mass signing of headshots for people. lol.
Am I the only one w/o a facebook? I find that site and myspace to be highly annoying. I'll stick to my LJ thank you.
I agree Liz. It's so pretty. Much better then his old headshot b/w heahshot.
Happy Birthday Amanda! Hope everything goes well today for your faily.
Malki

You're welcome everyone.
Hey everyone. I'm leaving for NYC in about an hour. I'm super excited about this trip. Even though I'm not seeing the show I plan on stage-dooring DRS' last. Hopfully I'll be able to meet some of you.
Have a great weekend everyone. I'll be back to posting on Tuesday.
I stared School yesterday but I only go in on Tuesday and Thursday.
Kerrie, it was so great meeting you!

Yay, I saw DRS! In a nutshell:
*Tom Hewitt was really great. His Love Sneaks In was beautifully sung.
*Norbert is a freakin' GAS. Maybe a bit too physical, but still hilarious nonetheless. He's the reason to see the show in the first place. I'm really glad I got to see him live and in person!
*Laura was pretty good. I'm very partial to Sherie Rene, though...but still. Laura had a pretty voice.
*Hollis (Muriel) was alright. Her Muriel was more perky than Joanna's. I prefer Joanna's interpretation of Muriel. It's ditzy, sophisticated, suave, and what the character should be.
*Drew (Andrew) was also alright. He kept slipping out of his accent. =/ Which made me realize this; nobody can play this role like Greg can. Nobody.
*Jennifer (Jolene) had an irritating speaking voice. But I thought she was good...
*Dirty Rotten Number and Love Sneaks In were in a lower key for Tom. It worked just as well, though.
*The lighting for The More We Dance was spectacular! In fact, I really wasn't paying attention to the dancing because of it.
*Give Them What They Want > that new opening number
*Er...my mom watched downstairs for Act 2? LOL, she didn't like it all that much. She had food and drink that she couldn't bring into the theatre, so she took a chair and watched the monitor.
Oh, and by the way, Greg Graham (DRS dance captain...you probably know who I mean) is the associate choreographer for the tour! ^__^ That made me really happy.
Overall, I thought the show was pretty good. I mean, there are other musicals that are better than DRS, but I really had a great time and enjoyed myself thoroughly.
No stage dooring, unfortunately. My mom had to rush home to drop me off so she could see her boyfriend. Bah...
Anyway, that's pretty much it. I've got to get to sleep, since I have to wake up at 6:30.
Looks like Rosie has already worked her magic with the folks over at the VIEW. The Drowsey Chaperone will be performing on todays show.
The cam was such a great suprise to come home to.
And Dre: I don't have classes at all on Wednesday's so I'll be hear listening to your show!
The advantage to having no classes on Wednesday...I can listen to the whole show Dre!
That was a good show Dre. Gave me something to listen to while cleaning my roon.
