Have fun DRS, but holy ****, can you please not use THAT many !!! the next time? There's absolutely no need for that many. We get the idea: you're excited.

*Tosses confetti*

I'm flying in to NY Friday and seeing DRS Saturday night. I'm such a nerd. With all this talk about Norbert being sick and being out 2 weeks ago...I'm LITERALLY having nightmares that he won't be in the show Saturday.

I know I'll still like the show without him (my roommate saw it w/ Joe Cassidy as Freddy and said it was fantastic), but...sigh! I will be so disappointed.

I know I'm a Norberr geek when I'm actually in FEAR of not seeing him....lol.

You both should consider yourselves lucky you even got a picture with him, no matter how crappy you think you look. I'm 99.9% sure I won't get one with him at all.

He and John have become Kristin/Idina-like divas, I love it!

I don't necessarily think it's a "diva" thing (even though I realize you said you were j/k), but more of a "we need to get you guys outta here ASAP so just sign and go so people aren't blocking the door" - heh.

If any of you think I've been acting like a bitch lately, sorry. It's been a long week and it's only just begun!

Oh well. There's nothing we can do about it, is there? Wether Mr. Martin goes to see the show or not is beyond our control so there's no point in any of us getting all huffy about it. LOL

And yes, Norbert is astounding in TL5Y. I've been listening to "Nobody Needs To Know" on repeat while I sleep the last few nights.

I wondered how he felt about Norbert Leo Butz winning the Tony Award a few weeks ago. Without a pause, he replied, "Has anyone ever deserved it more? I just thought: 'yay!'"

Honestly, who DIDN'T think that? If there was one person going against Norbert for the Tony (besides the hardcore Python fans, I'm sure).. I'll be shocked.

Did you guys see the picture from John's unveiling of his painting for the Broadway Wall of Fame?

I like that color on Norbert. LOL

Plus the background of the planets is from "3rd Rock from the Sun".

OMG! I hadn't even connected the planets to 3rd Rock. I'm so dumb sometimes. So we've got 3rd Rock, Shrek, and DRS (the martini glasses) all up in that painting. Nice.

If Norbert ever gets one, I wonder what will be on it.

Theatre Wing interview? I must have missed this.

I probably would have gotten a signed picture in the mail if I hadn't sent Norbert my TL5Y CD booklet to be signed instead. Plus, he got Sherie to sign it, too (on my request - which means he read the letter!). That made me happy.

All of this good stuff I keep hearing about Light in the Piazza is just making me even more excited to see it. The fact that I'm sitting closer for that (3rd row!) than I am for DRS (front row mezz) worries me a bit, though. Haha.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 7/4/05 at 2:07pm

I haven't heard the entire Piazza CD, but I have 6 songs (Matt Morrison's songs, of course ) plus what I've heard on the showtunes channel and the song that they did at the Tonys. But everything I've heard I love.

[thespian geek]

Matt will get his due sooner or later, I'm sure.

Just adding to the love! I had the HUGE pleasure of seeing the Amazing Mr. Butz perform in Friday night's show and he just radiated on stage. This man brims with talent and presence - and he's so lovely at the stage door!

Oh, and btw, for all interested Sherie also came out Friday night and signed...

Also spotted Norbert going into the Gershwin when I went to meet up with my sister and her friend at Wicked. Too cute!

Oh, so that's why he's always in such a hurry to go. :P

"Ken" the host is a character.

Oh thank God. Because seriously, I can't watch his Kentertainment videos without wanting to beat my head into my desk because he (as the character) drives me up a WALL. No offense.

Thank you, Hedwig.

and my wife’s got a video of him swimming in our pool with his Tony in the foreground.

ROFL. That totally sounds like a Norbert thing to do. SHOW IT OFF TO ALL HIS FRIENDS. Beautiful. I'm giggling to death right now.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 7/9/05 at 9:42am

What picture? I'm confused.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 7/9/05 at 4:07pm

How'd you manage to get THAT picture, DRS? Still confused.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 7/10/05 at 12:23am

That picture amuses me. Norbert looks ridiculously happy. His daughter looks very hesitant to get into the pool, but awwww all the same.

[thespian geek]

Posted: 7/10/05 at 1:40am

Only one? But there's so many!

[thespian geek]

Posted: 7/12/05 at 11:58am

If Norbert can talk about how he got a ticket for indecent exposure for taking a piss off the side of the road, I don't think he'll be too uncomfortable answering questions fans sent in.

Holy crap it's huge, but if we're showing off autographs..

I think Jen and Hunter would be the most ideal pair to replace both Sherie and Norbert.
