Posted: 8/6/08 at 12:43amThose of you who will be going to the concert are in for a real treat. J. Mark McVey and his wife, Christy Tarr-McVey gave a free concert in the Ridgewood (NJ) Band Shell on July 24. He gave us a preview of what he will be doing in the Hollywood Bowl...Jean Valjean's solos. He has a beautiful voice...his "Bring Him Home" is a killer. Please give us a review of the concert. Thanks.

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to let you know about some exciting things that are going on. Firstly, I'll be performing this weekend at The Hollywood Bowl playing Fantine in Les Miserables. The performances are almost completely sold out but you can still get tickets if your going to be in town. Friday, Aug. 8 and Sat. Aug 9 the shows begin at 8pm and Sunday Aug. 10 at 7:30. But the exciting news for those of you who can't get tickets or who don't have the moola to spend... there's a free, open to the public dress rehearsal on Friday the 8th beginning at 10am sharp till 1pm.
If you can come bring a hat and sunscreen and some water so you don't get too hot! We'd love to have you there for our first fully costumed, run through with orchestra on the Hollywood Bowl stage! More to come later! Look forward to seeing you there!
---------------------------------------------------------------
So, if you want to, maybe the free dress rehearsal on Friday might be a good bet.

"In my experience, taking pictures of the actual show is strictly prohibited. They have ushers standing around for the entire show (ready to pounce on violators?) But cameras are allowed inside the venue. They flash like crazy before the show. "
No one gives a **** at the Bowl. It is too big and there is no way they can control people. Every time I see a show there there are video cameras, cameras, and cell phones galore.

Posted: 8/7/08 at 3:08pmIs it me, or did the girl playing Cosette sound like she have a weak voice? Maybe it's just the sound in the video though.
