Music from The Pillowman

Posted: 9/11/05 at 7:56pm

Who here is as oddly addicted to the music that is played throughout The Pillowman as I am? www.pillowmanonbroadway.com has it playing in the background of the homepage and I keep replaying it. I feel like I'm in some sort of cult. lol. The moment I saw the play and heard the music all I could think of was "whoa this sounds good" lol.

I am!

I love it in the theatre!

They should make a CD....OR, even better, when the show closes this weekend, they should put the music to dwnld on the site for a brief time.

Totally! lol. And just have it an hour of that music. When I downloaded the screen saver I hoped it would have the music playing, but, to my dismay, it did not. Oh well! lol.

lol, I feel like I'm either in a cult when I listen to it or just totally unsafe, but then again, that was the feeling I had throughout the entire show. lol.

That music sets the tone for the show perfectly.

I feel like I have to turn around every few seconds to make sure there isn't an axe murderer behind me but I love it! lol I'm going to record it with my mp3 recorder so I can listen to it whenever I need a bit of a fright. Love those screechy violins!

BSo- No prob. PM me your e-mail address.

Did anyone see any merchandise when they saw Pillowman? I noticed a merch cart up in the mezz but I didn't see it open. I would love a black tee with the title on it.

My God, I think I would have sold out the stand when I went if they had one. The script, shirt, and soundtrack would have rung up my wallet lik 60 dollars. Good stuff. Oh and windowcard for the dorm room. Yes I go away next year, and already have my windowcard collection up to keep me in spirits with my loves

I've always loved this music. Does anyone know who it's by or what it's called?

Is it me or is the Pillowman website replaced by something else?
www.pillowmanonbroadway.com isn't exactly the play The Pillowman...

Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky. With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high! Blood-red were the spurs i' the golden noon; wine-red was his velvet coat, when they shot him down on the highway, down like a dog on the highway, and he lay in his blood on the highway, with the bunch of lace at his throat... (The Highwayman. Sung by: Loreena McKennitt)

I love that music too! I remember C is for Company and I laughed that if they had a "cast recording," we'd buy it.

Well I went to the website and that sure as heck wasn't The Pillowman it used to be.

...the music still rocks...even if I was at one point oblivious to the fact that BSo was mocking me for it.

I was not mocking you.

THE PILLOWMAN was the best show on Broadway. And the music helped.
