I saw Norbert as Mark (his very first performance)
*FUMES JEALOUSY*
I'd have died to see him as Mark, holy crap.
Eeeek. Here I am, thinking of going back to NYC the week of Thanksgiving for the release of the Rent movie and catch a couple of shows.. but hell. If I'm not going to be able to get tickets to any shows it might not even be worth the trouble. Heh.
Seems we all have pre-Norbert stories to share. A's, Patronus', my story about how I probably saw Norbert when he was with the Nebraska Theatre Caravan many a year ago.. LOL
When I met Norbert, he was wearing a USC (University of Southern California) Trojan's hat. I was kind of "wtf" over it. Hehe.
My baseball team is the Cubs. If the Red Sox can do it, so can they.
ok so i've just caught up on the past few pages. and i have some things to say... first, i also saw norb when he was in Rent. i was only 9, so i don't know why my parents brought me to see that. second thing..i feel SO YOUNG. i'm only 17. gah. lol ya'll make me feel like a baby. and lastly...i'm going to NYC in october to see DRS...i got row AA tickets, center. so i'm really really excited. it'll be my third time seeing it. AND i get to go backstage. Greg offered, and then Norb is going to help out..so it'll be me, my cousin, Greg, and Norb walking around backstage. CANT WAIT. and its on my birthday!!!! how much better can it get?!?!?!!? lol
Saw this posted at the Norbert LJ community; figured everyone here would enjoy it. You know how everyone's like "where did Babydoll come from?!" ...well... now we have two more solo songs to add to that.
There really is no story behind those 3 songs, newgirl. I meant to ask him when I met him but you know.. the fangirly mind took over and I completely forgot.
TL5Y = one of the most amazing things ever
I bought my copy online via Amazon.com - you can also buy it through sh-k-boom.com; if you're looking to purchase in store.. Virgin in Times Square has it, as do some Borders and Barnes & Noble.
OMG agreed. L5Y is amazing. Jason Robert Brown is GENIUS...and for them to put Shere and Norbert on it...just amazing. and if you haven't, you should get JRB's other stuff...Parade is the other really really really amazing one. LOVE HIM! i just wish that Norb and Shere were on that cd too..but they aren't, unfortunately.
ok guys. i have a question so i've looked online and found Norbs birthday on two sites..one said Jan 30, 1967...and one said Jan 20 (with no year) anyone know which it is? and what year? thaaaaaaaaanks!!
lol see i was in denial. i was like naw, he can't be 38. no way. cuz i'm only 18 so i didn't wanna accept that my favorite person ever is 20 years older than me. buuuut i guess i hafta come to terms with it, just like i had to come to terms with the fact that hes with michelle, which i didn't know about until this thread lol so yeah...its ok though. hes still AMAZING
anyways, OMG, norbert is AMAZING. i'm SO GLAD that i saw it a second time just for him! wow, wow, wow, wow, WOW.
well, firstly, he has a beautiful ass. can i say that? haha. it's smooth and...perfect looking! lol, and actually, my UNCLE was the one to point that out first! (and no, HE'S NOT GAY!) haha, sorry if that was wierd. but, i figured it would be okay, b/c...this IS a norb love thread!
i posted my review/story over on the greg jbara love thread if any of you want to read it! (please, do!) if you don't want to go all the way over there, i'll just say that norb has some really good improv skills! (not a surprise, though!) also, after the show, backstage, i saw him walking across the stage, and i said "Hi norb!" he smiled back and left to go sign autographs and what not! such a talented guy, that man!
no..no i'd agree. norbert has a WONDERFUL butt lol at intermission of the show my cousin goes "ali, are you in heaven!? you just saw butz's butt!!!! the butt of butz!" and on and on and on.. it was awesome.
