Okay, I'm heading off to the city in the morning. I'll be lottoing for RENT tomorrow night and I don't know when I'll be able to get online next, but hopefully after the show.
Any buying of The Last Five Years is not only recommended Gavrochegirl, it is demanded! I am back in NYC! I must get this playbill, hmmm maybe a lottery at DRS today?
You're demanding me? Well...my friend David told me that he'd burn it for me. Now I love him. (But I have always loved him!) So, basically, it's freeeee!
*does happy dance* Plus I think it's Norbert's best work. (SMARTPENGUIN! Agh...where on earth have you been?)
SP - if you're lottoing on Tuesday, I'll see you there! I'm gonna lotto even though I already have a ticket... because hi, front row for Norbert on my birthday would be the greatest thing ever.
yeah, the some of the greg threadders are kinda...crazy. but, i learn to live with it, lol! (i dont know HOW i do, but, somehow, i can! haha)
anyways, i'm one of the more saner ones, i think. but, yeah, anyways, DRS was the first bdway show i'd ever seen without my school, so, let's just say that i didn't know that you could refund/exchange tickets. i also didn't know that you could also find out when the actors would be out. but, good thing is that i was still able to see it! and, anyways, my dad drove my mom and i to the city already, and i couldn't just ask him to come back and bring us all home. ah, live and let learn, right? :)
and, yes, my name IS jamie, lol. i put that there b/c nobody remembered my name, and just called me movie. which, i don't mind, but it's nice to be called by ur name, too, ya know?
and, secondly, i think that you'd like his understudy, joe! i mean, even though i was upset that norb wasn't there, joe was still REALLY good, especially as the show was progessing. (and, he also has the belly for the ruprecht number! hahahaha!)
however, i kinda forgot what his voice sounded like, cuz the DRS soundtrack has been playing over and over and over and over (put in a million more "over's" and you've got it! haha) so, norb's voice is glued to my brain! lol. it kinda sucks, though, cuz i remember loving joe's voice, especially in "love is my legs!"
and, yeah, i figured that he'd be shy. i think that maybe john rubbed off on him, because HE'S really shy, (or, humble might be the right word) too!
anyways, i was looking at norb's old cabaret pictures, and, oh my goodness, he had a niiiiiccce body! (but i still love his present state! i always love a little belly on a guy! haha)
OHMYNORBERT. I love that man in such ridiculous amounts it's not even funny.
Today was my birthday, so seeing DRS and Norbert was my gift to myself, but I don't think it could have gotten any better. Well, actually, it could have but I won't be selfish.
Not only did I meet him; oh no, it doesn't stop there. I got his autograph (again), talked with him briefly about a couple of things, GOT MY PICTURE WITH HIM (which you all know I was so upset wouldn't happen since he's not supposed to), aaaannnnddd...
I got a hug.
A HUG.
This is Caitlin dying happy right now.
PS - Hi, SP! It was nice meeting you today. PPS - Norbert's daughters went backstage about 5 minutes before he got there. Let me tell you, they may just be the cutest damn things on Earth. Updated On: 8/9/05 at 11:01 PM
Saw Norbert walking Michelle to work today. Almost had a heartattack because it was so damn random.
Went and saw Light in the Piazza tonight, though. I might just be a little bit in love with Matt Morrison now. Guh. But yeah, that show is AMAZING. I had front row next to a set of stairs the actors used a lot. It was just... I have no words.
No wait! I do!
Screw you, Dan Fogler, for taking Matt's Tony. :P And Sara Ramirez for taking Kelli's. Hmph.
Okay, so completely off-topic of Norbert, but today has been CRAZY so far in regards to Broadway people.
Just within the last 2 hours I've met/run into Aaron Lohr, Andy Karl, Cary Shields, and Mayumi Ando. I also found out my friend Tony, whom I graduated high school with, was Michael Arden's u/s in BARE.
haha theres a reason i don't know who michelle is.. see, i want norb to myself lol. i don't wanna know when he has a g/f. i'd rather just assume hes single
awww but someone photoshop my head into there!!! i have a pic of me under my fan photos. PLEASE?! lol someone make an awesome picture..me and norb!!! lol i'd love you forever!!
YEAH omg i totally know what you mean.. i've seen the show twice, and i can't WAIT to see it again. i listen to it all the time and it just kinda depresses me cuz i wanna see it again and be around those people so bad.
Your best bet would be to probably rent the disc the episode is on from Netflix. They don't re-air episodes all that often. So it'll probably be another few months at least until Norbert's ep is on again..
I got standing seats for Bee last Wednesday and I loved it. I thought it was adorable and I laughed a lot. My favorites were Jesse (Leaf) and the girl who plays Logan.. I can't remember her name.
ok so how long is the DRS lotto going on? for front row? cuz i looked online and i can buy front row center for october. so how can they give them away for the lotto?
