For those of us NOT going to Radio City Music Hall tonight, how are YOU watching the Tonys?
Party?
Alone?
Drinking Games?
Ballot/Betting?
DVR it for later?

I've downloaded TVU Player, and it seems to be working, so should everything go according to plan, I'll be watching them on my PC with a three hour delay, slowly going more and more crackers as I get sleepier and sleepier and sleepier. I've never liked the timezone difference between the UK and NY...

I am not watching them.
Tonight's MY big theatre awards gala, and my family doesn't have a VHS player that can record videos. Maybe I'll end up seeing clips online or something...

Posted: 6/7/09 at 12:59pmAlone...home...close to the computer with some liquid refreshment and good friends online. Although I must admit; the Astoria gay party sounds quite interesting...(big smile).

I am still on the fence about where to watch them. For the past couple of years I would sit and watch them on my own with a nice cold beer fighting my brother for control over the good TV in my house.
Truth be told, I have always wanted to go to some sort of Tony party but I don't even know where to go look first. I have friends that are into theatre but VERY casually. I don't think that they would get pleasure out of watching the Tonys. But, I have often thought that at Tony party is a good way to meet people etc etc. So who knows. Anyone got any suggestions?

Since I'm in Vegas, I will spend the later part of my day avoiding the internet like a plague since I don't want to read spoilers. But for the actual ceremony, I have to pick up my stupid friend from the airport around 7, so I will be rushing home, turning on my DVR, and banishing my (straight) friend to the living room for the entirety of the show. I'm psyched!
Oooh, and Sangria - prepared it a couple days ago with all sorts of delicious fruit (bananas, strawberries, peaches, pears, apples, oranges, kiwis...YUM) in this Blackberry Merlot. CAN'T WAIT!

Posted: 6/7/09 at 3:10pmIm thinking of going to the lawn chairs of Times Square. I am wondering if it will be a fun experience or not.

At home.....but in a chat room with my theater friends all over the country!
If I was IN Manhattan, I think I'd try the lawn chairs. (Can't tell you how strange Times Square looks with them scattered around. I suppose if it is deemed "successful" and therefore, permanent, different chairs will be purchased.
