Can I just say how FREAKING EXCITED I am for this?

Along with Lacey Schwimmer, Neil was the ONLY reason to watch last season's SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE?

Go Neil!!!

I still can't believe they couldn't find a place for the boys to show some skin.
Neil is so talented and he arrives just in time for BROADWAY BARES, they should crate a number around him.

I am dying a little bit. I wanted him to win so badly slash I was absolutely in love with him.


I'm apparently going to have to revisit that show now. Is there any word on how long he'll be with the show?

Nice picture!

I haven't seen the show in close to two years. Yes, I used to be an "Altarholic". One of the originals! Time to revisit!

He's no Dominic or Pasha, but I'll still see Altar Boyz again for Neil!

Sadly, from my experience, he's a dancer - and neither an actor nor a singer. Goodbye high note in "The Calling" that you sing so beautifully, Jesse.

I was just going to say. Wasn't one of the jokes during So You Think You Can Dance that he can't sing at all?

At least the Luke does dance tricks portion will be awesome and extended, although I'm surprised they would cast someone who's not the strongest singer in this show.

Then again, Luke is probably the part that needs it the least. It's just happened to have some great singers do it over time.

That said, the shamelessly gay part of me desperately needs to buy tickets.

"Goodbye high note in "The Calling" that you sing so beautifully, Jesse."

I loved reading that..That one note is my favorite part of the entire show! It was changed when Landon Beard played Luke (whom I loved, but had a deeper voice), and now it's back to the original register. I hope Neil can hit it~

being an original Altarholic (13 times and counting!), I support the addition.

one thing I love about BOYZ is that the cast is fresh and is always changing. makes each performance new for me.

That's amazing news! Congrats to Neil! :)

wow! it's about time somebody from that show actually got a real performing job. Like, everybody else from all seasons, even the winners have done nothing. Good for Neil. Me and my sister in law went to the tour last summer and met them all afterwards and was a really nice cool guy. However, I do remember them all talking about his bad singing, so this might not be a great move. But then again he could've got lessons since then.

Believe it or not.


I have not seen Altar Boyz. It came to Boston's Colonial... I have a free ticket from a friend who works there... Did not use it!

I should probably see this show?
