It was really excellent. Highlights were Jonathan Groff doing "Try Me" from "She Loves Me", Skylar Astin and someone else (can't remember his name) doing a new song from "See Rock City" (a new musical), Norm Lewis' rendition of "Before the Parade Passes By" (it was fantastic!) and David Burnham's performance. What a show!
I would love to have gone. I was at last year's concert and really enjoyed it.
I hope this one will be released on DVD like the previous concert...I'd get it just for Norm, if nothing else.

Thanks Deena Jones for bumping this thread.
If anyone has a set list, please post it. I really hope the concert is released on DVD.
I was hoping for BWW "Photo Coverage". Hopefully tomorrow. :)

Linda Lenzi and Walter McBride both covered 'The Leading Men III' concert for BroadwayWorld.com the other night, so I'm eager to see their photos, too. They do such amazing work. Also, BroadwayWorld.com writer Jena Tesse was there as well.
As the producer of this Broadway Cares benefit, I want to give a great shoutout to all the gifted guys from Broadway and cabaret who donated their time and talent. And thanks to everyone who came out to support them and BC/EFA.
And Bwaygal1, thanks for your posting, too! :)

Check out the backstage photos with performance shots to follow!
Did I mention I completely envy Skylar, who graduated from my high school when I was a freshman, for this photo? rawr.
Linda you don't accept PMs
I was not at the concert partly because I didn't know about it before this thread and partly because I was at At This Performance [which was fantastic so I don't really hold regret towards missing out on Leading Men, well maybe a little - it is David and Jonathon].
I can't wait to see the photos of them onstage! I bet they were all terrific.
Shh.

Why do those photos have to be posted when I should be writing my term paper on broadway musicals? oh the irony..
but now I don't know what photo should be my background - David Burnham and Jonathon Groff should have just performed together to make this easier for me..
