Last night was entirely too much fun! I don't know if anyone has posted already, but I'm too lazy and have too much homework to do a search, sorry. Anyway! O'Keefe is hysterical, and some of the things he and Nell (Insert last name here!0 have written are pee-in-your-pants worthy. Performers included Kerry Butler, Deven May, Emma Williams (She's like 21, and has a voice that can't be matched, she was awesome.), Joe Cassidy, Sarah Chase, Julie [I know the last name, but for fear of butchering I'll refrain from trying to type it...]. There was also another girl who i can't quite remember right noww. She was reallygood, too. There was some music from Legally Blond, and it sounds GREAT! If it happens (Is it a definate thing yet?) it is going to be amazing! There was some music from Cam Jansen, which used to be a book series, and that was pretty neat. A little silly, but neat nonetheless. Then there was this song Deven May sang that sent everyone into fits of laughter, then thunderous applause (And a number of whoops from Craig!). He never said what it was called, but the setup he gave for it made the song. And, his little encore (Craig, again!) was a song that was absolutely the raunchiest thing EVER! The main lyric was something along the lines of 'Joy in your face.' And it was foul, foul, FOUL! God, Larry is so funny, and the songs were absolutely amazing. I like his little sick sense of humor. Also! Mine All Mine form the London Bat Boy is AMAZING! Emma and Deven sang it (Duh.) and they were awesome. It included a few of the lyrics from Inside Your Heart, so it made it a little familiar which was fun. Okay. mom is on the way and i', not doing any work. Ahh.

The song was "The Sensitive Song" (and pssst. It was announced before he sang it) Very funny stuff and was also sung at one of the Bare's Back concerts.

Look for pictures from the concert later tonight!

"Emma Williams (She's like 21, and has a voice that can't be matched, she was awesome.), "

Glad to read this. I saw Emma in her West End debut in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang in 2002. She played Truly Scrumptious, and she was simply delightful. (She was 18 when she made her debut.) Yes, her voice is really fantastic. She can be heard on the Chitty LCR. She also did a concert performance of Sunset Boulevard with Michael Ball in Cork a year ago -- she played Betty -- and their duet "Too MUch in Love to Care," was simply outstanding.
